Gross Vehicle Weight (Sep 30 2003 14:00 GMT) - Yesterday, tooling down I-94, I saw what may be the single most disgusting example of conspicuous consumption I can recall. I pulled alongside a Ford Expedition rolling down the expressway, doing about 70, and saw that nobody was in it. The jumbo SUV was being pulled by a 40-foot Fleetwood mobile home as the "runabout" vehicle. I wish I had my camera with me to snap a photo. |

atom - withering? (Sep 30 2003 14:00 GMT) - In looking through my server logs, I see a lot of daily requests for the RSS files - from a very wide variety of newsreaders. However, there have been no requests at all (at least not yet) for the atom feeds. There are atom feeds for all the blogs hosted here. Now admittedly, other than this blog, I don't really advertise the atom feeds. On the other hand, I haven't had any requests either. |

be-rewt : Et hop, fin de la création (Sep 30 2003 14:00 GMT) - Voilà, en attendant vos retours si quelque chose n'irait pas (en particulier avec opera ou ie 5.x, je n'ai pas pu tester faute de machine). Le re-design du joueb est fini. Il reste bien les sondages que je n'ai pas encore eu le temps de regarder d'assez près, mais on verra un peu plus tard. Maintenant, il me reste à reprendre tout le code, à le copier ici et à en expliquer le rôle. |
