You’re too good to us. Really.
jeesh, we can’t even make it bigger. weeeee!
Nice, I like it. Will the dog picture be a mainstay or will you be rotating the header image?
OK, somehow comments on this entry look fine. I have no idea what the problem could be.
Bradford, Ohio: Front row seats to the apocalypse.
Two questions. When did you move to Mordor? Can you share the exif data for that pic? I’d love to know what settings you used.
I just took it with my Droid X.
I don’t suppose you can post that on Flickr? That would make a great wallpapper.
Or am I just not finding it on Flickr?
Somehow “PERFECTING MY WARRIOR ROBOT RACE” gets less… intimidating… with a sunset shot under it. Oh, I get you, you’re the beneficent world leader. Right. Gotcha.
What does the HTML tag “acronym title” mean? It’s like a button that says “don’t touch this!” and now I’m compelled to try…
Monochromatic? You folks do realize the old theme was just white right? This new theme is running over with color in comparison.
Oh look Sunset! Pretty.
Oh yeah, another vote for a more hi-res version to stealz for wallpaper!
Lived in the Midwest* in the late 1970′s and recall that I saw the prettiest sunsets ever in that part of the country. Watching a big thunderstorm roll in was pretty awesome, too ;)
*(northern Ford Co., Illinois. about 30 mi SW of Kankakee)
@Cassie: “acronym title” denote an acronym, and you can put the full meaning between the quotes. For example, hopefully below you can hover over the acronym and see the title text.

The tag is actually just “acronym”. Title is an attribute that displays when you hover over the element.
