well, not that many of you care, but I have changed the theme used for my blog. Admittedly, the theme is pretty boring, but it means that I can pass off huge long rants more easily as there are more words per line. I noticed with the previous layout that a couple of my posts ended up over a screen high! So, although the content hasn’t shrunk or anything, perhaps I can fool you into reading the whole post, because it doesn’t look quite as long. I can only hope.
An even better technique would, of course,involve learning how to write shorter posts, but that sounds too much like effort and not enough like fun. So, while you may groan about this, don’t expect the lengthy… lengthiness of the posts to die easily. They just look better (or something like that).
Well, I spent a while thinking up a witty name for this post (well, actually only about 2 seconds…) and it reminded me of another thing that I don’t quite understand: why do some clothes shrink in the wash? I don’t actually understand the physics involved here, but understand that there is some, so I guess I can’t just pass it off as evil gremlins inhabiting the laundry. Surely, after umpteen-thousand years of mankind wearing clothing, and even a few washing them, some crazy boffin could solve the problem? Oh well, it is one of those things that will just have to stay unsolved (what with global warming, recession, and the unprecedented price of screwdrivers, we have enough to worry about).
This post was fairly boring, and not even that short, so a suitably amusing witticism would probably cheer people up and drag them out of the near-suicidal boredom that often accompanies perusal of my blog. It would be funny if there was something to laugh about.
