Why didn't you tell me?
I must have the most polite readers. No one told me that the intro to this blog was all fucked up when viewed in IE.

See, I use Firefox both at home and at work. I just don't like Exploder - especially the newest version, which wants to be Firefox but just ain't. So when I set up the intro - I ran a test version in a private static item first - I set it up using Firefox, and it took me about two hours to find the right combination of WritingML size and font codes to make it look exactly the way I wanted it to look.

Here I am at Meghan's house, and I decide to check my email, but y'all have abandoned me. So I call up my blog to show the neat picture to my friends, and holy shit, it's impossible to see without scrolling right. Why? Because all the stuff at the bottom had size codes that were WAY wrong. I'm missing the first few scenes of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest to try to make it right for you Exploder users - see, I'm not out to convert anyone to Firefox; I'm just explaining what happened.

Of course, now when I go home and look at this on Firefox it's going to be all messed up again, and I'm going to have to fix it again.
