with the db sites redesign.
donburnside.com — completely redesigned, kinda funky, but it’s all CSS baby. Not a single table was harmed in it’s creation.
dbmini.us — Redesign has begun. So far the blog is done with a layout that is much cleaner and easier to read. Plus, all HTML table have been stripped out for your pleasure. The site goes a bit deeper than just the front page, and those pages are next up on the redesign block.
w(t)f - Hey, you’re soaking in it! I only changed the colors because I was bored, now I wish I hadn’t. Oh well. This site is next up for a major facelift, and way overdue! Don’t worry, you’ll know when it’s done.
I just wish that some of the trick CSS I want to use worked for everyone….
So, it was my birthday day before yesterday. I’m sure your cards and presents are in the mail and were held up by the day of mourning yesterday and the Memorial Day holiday. No worries. I appreciate your thoughts.
So, the lass and the lad (heretofore known as the Alex’s) took me out to dinner in San Diego. I’ve been dying to try this Italian Restaurant in little Italy. It doesn’t help that I’ve been staring at the menu for the last week developing their site. So, that’s where we go.
If you ever get down there, I highly recommend it! I had the lamb, which was served with a brown sauce with porchini mushrooms and roasted vegetables. Quite good. Of course we had a fantastic bottle of wine that I can’t remember the name of, but it will come to me.
After that, a quick trip up the street to a nifty little pub called Shakespears for a proper pint of Guiness (always tastes better from the tap) for me and an Irish Coffe for the lass. The lad had a sprite and was jonesin to play darts. You can always tell when someone really knows how to pour a pint of Guiness too. For those of you that don’t know, the foam that is produced by this fine elixir of the gods is super stiff, much like soft peaks in your whipped cream. This allows for the ability to actually overfill a glass without it running over.
After that a quick trip downstairs to a little coffee/gelato shop. Latte for me, gelato for the lad. Then a long trip home.
I’d give the experience 5 stars out of 5!
Then, just poking around this morning and brewed up a pot of coffee. And it sucked! Nothing worse than that.
Yes, we all know that Ronald Reagan died this week. But did you also know that the truly great Ray Charles passed away as well?
From the above article:
Over the course of a 58-year career, he put his stamp on it all with a deep, warm voice roughened by heartbreak from a hardscrabble childhood in the segregated South. Smiling and swaying behind the piano, grunts and moans peppering his songs, Charles’ appeal spanned generations.
Aretha Franklin called Charles “the voice of a lifetime.”
“He was a fabulous man, full of humor and wit,” she said in a statement. “A giant of an artist, and of course, he introduced the world to secular soul singing.”
iTunes has a nice page setup for what has got to be one of the greatest artists of our lifetime.
“you give your hand to me
and then you say hello
and I can hardly speak
my heart is beating so
and anyone can tell
you think you know me well
but you don’t know me”
–You Don’t Know Me, Ray Charles
Take a minute and give a listen if you haven’t in a while. you can thank me later.
I’m sure that the 5 of you reading this have already noticed the color changes here at w(t)f. it is only the tip of the iceberg!
Warming up to redo the entire db catablog of websites; here, dbmini, and even donburnside.com.
that is all for now
Yea, sure, that is going to do wonders for my search refs, but I don’t care, this is just wrong!
I heard this on local news radio last week. Big thanks to the Joshinator for finding it on CNN.
