Ok, lot's to share so let's get to it.

First, in the 2+ years I have been moderating and reviewing sites I have never come across such horribly coded websites as I have recently. I'm not talking about the general wysiwyg bloat, I'm talking about missing , , and more. 3 sites in 2 day. wow. just.. wow.

I am all for who ever wants to being able to jump on the internet and creating a website. But come on! Some attempt at learning what your doing! One site would not render in NN4.7 - and for once NN4.7 was right not to render it. While I am all for browser compliance, there should be certain standards that need to be met. Like proper formating. When IE makes it OK for these sites to contain improper code they are just encouraging people to skip what is necessary and then we, in the forums, get to deal with their crys of "Why" when something finally does go wrong. I'm now not so unhappy about NN possibly making a come back (esp if they manage to become fully w3 compliant). Arrgghhhh!

And, what is with every one needing to freaking argue with everything I post lately? Maybe I just need a break from forums.. maybe it's me. It is quite possible. I am in serious need of a break, I know this.. perhaps my attitude is causing it. I have tried very hard to check myself before submitting. But hey, never check your own work right..

On the good front, got confirmation of acceptance for another SEO job. Should take me out of the red for Hawaii (whew! was getting worried about that) and the shower I am throwing for my sisters wedding.. speaking of which, i really need to get my you-know-what together and get those invites out next week, all I need is to print and insert the directions but every time I start to do it I get stopped (at work). Oh well, Monday should be easy as long as I don't jack around to much.

ps: removing crappy comment thing that has been 'temporarily unavailable' for days now. I will get the PHP version setup as soon as I have time (um probably about 2 weeks from now).

what's this [commenting temporarily offline] crap geez, get busy and stay away for awhile and all hell breaks loose.. well - perhaps that explains why the comments i just set up on a clients blog were not working.. hmm, perhaps not. this was a different system i think.

anyhoo... whazzzzupppppp.. yeow it's late..

Flat maddison is doing great, have stuff (ok 'have had stuff') to update the site with - should be able to this weekend, she goes off to pappa's so i will be free to work work work :/

um, 2 websites to build (ok 1 and 1/4th the other 3/4ths are done) and work as usual for lists-match.com. i am pretty proud of myself tho. today i managed to finish upgrading my billing proceedure - shaved quite a big chuck of time off the process (hey - i was copy/pasting into an excel file) someday i will finish cleaning up that site too.
