Wacko!
If I have to endure one more dumb article on “CNN”:http://www.cnn.com, “MSNBC”:http://www.msnbc.com, or the likes about “ludicrous crap like this”:http://www.cnn.com/2004/ALLPOLITICS/10/26/flu.poll/index.html, I think I might just go nuts.

Communism Falls
!(alignright)http://www.sensoryoutput.com/wp-images/postings/castro.jpg(Fidel Castro)!

I posted earlier this weekend in “HDTV Woes”:http://www.sensoryoutput.com/archives/2004/10/15/hdtv-woes/ about some of the caveats of shopping through brick and mortar retailers.

Uh, Oh! Election Falterings
With the Presidential Election only two weeks away, my fear of reiterations of the 2000 election _à la_ Florida debacle has escalated to new levels. Combine the mass move in many states to electronic voting machines without paper trails with the razor-thin margins each campaign … Read More →
Hicksdesign Redesign
“Jon Hicks”:http://www.hicksdesign.co.uk/journal/ has “implemented a redesign”:http://www.hicksdesign.co.uk/journal/597/its-not-quite-finished of his blog, powered by “Textpattern”:http://textpattern.com/. I really enjoy his designs and mastery of CSS(Cascading Style Sheets), and this one is no exception. In brief, the use of white space is wonderful, a nice reprieve from the clutter of … Read More →
