Myspace mock up wasn't used

So I created a new myspace layout, as seen above, which is based off this layout made over @ 5thirtyone.com. After crafting it off and on over a couple of afternoons I decided to try to make it work. The fact that I am posting this here should tell you that it didn’t. You shouldn’t have to hack your way into making a myspace layout that doesn’t look like hell, especially if you know any css or html. If the folks over at myspace were to update their site from a table based layout to a css based one it would be a huge step in the right direction. Facebook opened up their site recently, myspace could stand to learn from their example.

California District 38 Mock Up
I also created a quick and dirty mock up for possible use @ my parents little league organization, California Distrist 38. It will probably never be used for anything for various reasons but what the heck I think it looks nice but I am partial since I created it. If you think it looks worth a dang let me know I would love to hear feedback. I really need to update this thing when I am more awake though so I will end this here, goodnight.

You have to start somewhere.

So I am watching one of, if not my favorite movies right now, High Fidelity and I figure what the heck I need a first proper post on this new blog, and I have got nothing. I wanted to say something grand and I hope that I will at some point make a proper introductory post, explaining more than anyone actually cares about but then I realize I have to start somewhere and this is that start. So as a real way of opening this thing up here are some of my favorite lines from the movie High Fidelity, if you haven’t seen it watch it, and if you have seen it, read the book, I know I need to.

Rob: Should I bolt every time I get that feeling in my gut when I meet someone new? Well, I’ve been listening to my gut since I was 14 years old, and frankly speaking, I’ve come to the conclusion that my guts have shit for brains.

Laura: I’m too tired not to be with you.
Rob: What, so if you had a bit more energy we’d stay split up, but things being as they are, with you being wiped out and all, you want to get back together? Is that it?
Laura: Yeah.

Rob: What came first, the music or the misery? People worry about kids playing with guns, or watching violent videos, that some sort of culture of violence will take them over. Nobody worries about kids listening to thousands, literally thousands of songs about heartbreak, rejection, pain, misery and loss. Did I listen to pop music because I was miserable? Or was I miserable because I listened to pop music?

Rob: It would be nice to think that since I was 14, times have changed. Relationships have become more sophisticated. Females less cruel. Skins thicker. Instincts more developed. But there seems to be an element of that afternoon in everything that’s happened to me since. All my romantic stories are a scrambled version of that first one.

I could say something grand about the human condition and how the movie speaks to it, but I don’t have it in me right now, all I have in me right now when it comes to this flick is that I can relate to it.
