Yay! I'm not dead! Sorry if you missed me. For a week there my internet connection was down again, and I believe the cause was much more evil than just not paying the bill this time. And then last week I was out at the cottage, so that pretty much clears me of any claims of laziness. And now that that's out of the way, lots of big, big news.
First, and possibly least related to the site, we now have two dogs. The new one is named Harley. He looks exactly like Gizmo, except his paws aren't white. They've both gotten pretty good at the housebrokenness, so they no longer really need to be watched over all the time. That means I'm not so damn busy watching them any more.
Nextly, I've been fooling around with FrontPage all night (morning?), trying to create (steal) my new layout. For the most part, it's coming along really well, but my limited amount of experience with web design is keeping the final product just out of reach. It'll probably be done by the end of the week, if I keep working hard.
Finally, this will more than likely be the last news post of this kind, assuming that I don't just totally abandon my hopes of burning this site and resurrecting a new and better one from the ashes. That means no more song-titled news posts, no more me trying to convince you I was too busy to finish the latest article, and most importantly, making the full-length articles a lower priority.
Now that I've made clear everything I set out to say, it's time to head on back to site design. I just hope that with the "new" site, the message boards will also get something of a revival.
~Ryan out. For the last time.
