Current Status of my World

I have been at home for 23 minutes, and 17 seconds. Before that, I was out crashing a party.

I made an RSS 1.1 plugin / flavour for Blosxom. It's got the basic functionality to make a valid RSS 1.1 feed (well, valid at least at the time of writing this). I should be updating it as the spec. gets finalized, though it's not versioned. I'll put a notice on the page regarding update times.

Winter and Bicycles

G M GM /meat/ROC/ @ 13:33 on Sun, 2005-01-30

This winter, I have experienced two things things in Rochester that I never have before:

Shoveling out my car (I only recently got one).
Seeing numerous people bicycle by in -20°C weather.

After an hour or so of #1, I realized why #2 exists: you don't have to shovel out, scrape off, or otherwise dewinterify your bicycle. Of course the major drawback of that being that most bicycles don't have heated seats or something to keep your face from freezing off.

If you can read this text, you're either on a browser that doesn't support CSS or one that supports it badly. You've probably noticed that my layout is a bit choppy and perhaps even ugly. My layout here is designed to work in all browsers that support CSS 1 and 2 and was designed by reading the W3C CSS recommendations. It was tested in the most CSS-compliant browser I know of, Firefox. If you want this page (and others too!) to look nice, I reccomend trying Firefox - it's completely free and can also block those annoying popup ads out-of-the-box.
