There was an apocolypse 4 years ago… The 4 horsemen came riding along… Netscape 4.7 was given a ticke to ride the river Styx…
Now that I have illustrated my ignorance of religion, it is time to celebrate the 4th anniversary of Jeffrey Zeldman’s proclamation: To Hell With Bad Browsers. Anil Dash has become the grand marshal of the anniversary parade with his post about how this announcement has changed his life.
I was your average html hack willing to try whatever seemed interesting before being introduced to all that is Zeldman. Brian Rountree pushed me into the world of standards and I found new satisfaction in creating web sites that do more than look purty.
Thank you Zeldman for parting the pearly gates and melting the golden browsers and lighting that bush on fire. Is that what it says in the Bible?
I’m famous… sort of. I just became one of the latest creatures in Heidi Barack’s popular Animal Fiction series. I’m a cockroach. Yep, just turn on the lights and watch me run.
You’ve got to love Heidi’s art. She’s doing what she loves and it shows.
It reminds me of the latest exhibition by Christo and Jean-Claude in New York City. I wish I could find the exact quote, but Jean-Claude described the gates as having no underlying message. They are meant to be visually exciting and to be enjoyed. They don’t represent 9/11, poverty, inhumanity or anything else.
Heidi’s art is like that. Pure fun. You gotta love it. Time for me to scurry, I think I see someone reaching for a light switch.

Perhaps it’s the spam karma coming back to haunt me. This week I asked a question to the web standards group about how to use an aural style sheet to hide spammed header tags hidden by text-indent.
It was just a question!
Now, I’ve had to turn off comments on this blog due to spamming. I re-named the comment folders and added the image confirmation script a few weeks ago and enjoyed a spam free blog. Alas, they have come a knockin’ again.
I’m going to upgrade to Wordpress 1.5 tomorrow, hopefully this will solve the spamming.
How can I remove the bad spam karma?
