Oh, spring is upon us,
with flowers in bloom.
The birds all are singing
their colorful tune.
The kids behind school desks
just can't wait until June.
And every morning
we wonder how soon
'til the blasted TV weatherman is going to stop forecasting the god-awful 40-degree cold and rain.
I wrote this little anecdote in response to something I read elsewhere. I was recently reminded of it when I encountered this comic from benisadork.com.
This very cool Shockwave map shows the flashpoints of many conflicts, along with the description of the events surrounding them. Use the timeline slider under the map to change dates.http://www.nobel.se/peace/educational/conflictmap/index.html
Continuing the disgusting streak… By only looking at a portion of a full picture, determine if the image is of tasty meat or a horrible bloody accident.http://www.meatoraccident.co.uk/
I've had the notion for a while to add a stylesheet to the RSS feeds on this site so that they are a little more readable.
RSS is fundamentally XML, and should readily accept stylesheets for display. Using a stylesheet would let me assign styles to the tags in the RSS to format it just like a web page.
