Testing CSS:

CSS Tips & Tricks for IT savvy Blogger

Take a look at what the instant code can do...however it doesn't work well with Blogspot, useful though. Eg:

There was a Blog post recently that had near perfect balance. It was not in English so I was looking more at the layout than reading. What I noticed was the fine balance of the three simple classes to coordinate the image with the dropcap and the pullquote.


...you don't have to know CSS to use this one


It was very nicely done. It looked something like this post.
We are using shorthand CSS here. Using shorthand notation can help keep the size, or weight, of the page to a minimum if the style sheet is growing. For readability we tend to leave our CSS style long and the style sheet is growing too fast. Either way works. And, no you don't have to know CSS to use this one.
It's served copy-and-paste style and with the external CSS.

"...Anyway, it's finally happening. Two days later, on 1 Mar 2006 Joseph will be going to his first school. There is to be three days' orientation, whereby I am allowed to remain in the centre with him. Thereafter the actual detachment starts... letting go.

Joseph, when you read mummy's blog years from now, I just want you to be clear about this thing. In my previous entry, you would have seen how mummy went traipsing all around the neighbourhood, hunting for a suitable place to put you in for half a day. This, is by no means any indication that I have tired of having you by my side. Far from it, in fact, mummy did that for a number of reasons...."

Just a colleague

There is such uncanny resemblance I couldn't help but make a DI (digital imaging, a term he loves to use that I observed) of him with the mad magazine cover. Strangely enough, there was no need to do much alteration as everything just simply fit nicely, like a jigzaw puzzle. Hmmm... I really wonder whether my attempt to associate him with the Mad mascot was truely intuitive...
:) LOL.

My Tabby Tibby

This is my cat Tibby. She asks for food every morning and evening without fail. She only asks for food from my wife Kat, if she is around in the house. But if she is not, this cat of mine kept quiet and remained hidden behind the pink sofa placed beside the full length window most of the time, until she hears Kat. That really happened while my wife was away in UK for 10 days. And for 10 days, this cat remained behind the sofa until I poured her food in her tray and she heard the sound. Then she would come out from the hiding place and sneaked quietly to the kitchen when her food tray is placed. I wonder, what she was hiding from. From me? :)

It's a jungle out there!

Jungle or no jungle, it really depends on how you see it. Some say jungle some say not. But I say the jungle is in your heart or in your mind, or in your head. What are we afraid of? Leaving our comfort zones? Loosing what we have held for dear life, so close in our heart, for so long? I am not here to preach but I am one who fall victim to this too.

What do we fear the most? Taking risk? Giving up everything that we have? Being rejected by peers? Unaccepted by relatives? Falling prey to small talks beind our backs? What?

What can we loose? Nothing I believe, nothing but just your face?

Post Valentine Post

Not celebrating valentine's day this year, one because my wife is overseas, second, I was too busy! But what the hell! Why must valentine be associated with lingerie?? The above ad reads, "Present your love with sexy lingerie from so and so and give your love life a sensual boost!...bla and bla"
Is there a better way to educate youth that valentine is a season for sharing and giving, and spending quality time with your love ones? More than that, everyday's a valentine's day if you are truly in love. But of course I am not telling you people not to be a romantic, but if you just want to take advantage of your gf on valentine's day, you are on the wrong track!

Girls! Never accept a gift of lingerie from a guy if both of you are not married!
:P
