I finally found some time to work on this site a little. As you can see, not much is different. I mostly just played around with the CSS until I achieved the appropriate level of awesome. I have attempted to adhere to standards and, while not perfect, I think I did a pretty darned good job. How do I know, you ask? Because every single browser in the world on every platform renders this page exactly the same…. except of course for Internet Explorer, which has long been a giant floating turd and remains so to this very day.
So, to recap:
Browsers that render this page correctly – Safari, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, and every other browser in existence.
Browsers that do NOT render this page correctly – Internet Explorer
Hey everyone, look at me. i’m trying MacJournal in conjunction with my site. Does that make me somehow cooler than I already am? Probably not. But it does make posting much easier than it already was, which means….. well, it doesn’t mean anything.
It snowed today for the third time this season. Another unusual thing that is happening this year is that I am doing my own taxes. Last year, I went to HR Block, sat in a chair by a lady’s desk and watched her open a program that told her what numbers to enter and where exactly to find them in order to enter them. Then she charged me $300. I swear I am not kidding. What a racket they have going on there. I looked at her business card when it was all over with and she wasn’t even a CPA. Her card basically had her name, then underneath was the sentence “Can Type for Exorbitant Fees.”.
So I made the decision, quite easily I might add, to get my own program for 30 bucks and type in the numbers when prompted all by myself and, in the process, save $270. I opted for TurboTax, because it sounded super fast. Turbo!!! It’s right there in the name for crying out loud. And so I typed in numbers when prompted and now I am ready to file my taxes. And it didn’t cost me $300 plus a trip into town. It didn’t even take that long, although to be honest I thought it would be a little faster because of the Turbo part, but still it was over rather quickly. Now I can spend the money I save on useless crap like a tiny stand for my iPhone that makes it look like a miniature iMac. How freaking awesome is that?
