Table Free in 20-ten-3

This site has been made table free

as furious activity of the New Year

trivialities of learning full-featured over-extended architectures!

Just face it, code-heads, CSS is a kludged-up hack.float-clear-fix? Well, if I hadn't found it I would still be wanting my tables back. The thing with tables is that they work every time. You want something at the bottom. You put it at the bottom. It doesn't float around the page because you don't have those div blocks in the flow of things. You imagine these blocks in which you put your stuff. It will be all of the content and such. The 'and such' part are the all of everything. If you look at the code of my page, here, you see how complicated content can become. Each little piece needs to fit into somewhere like you are utilizing what used to be known as a California Job Box. It was a creation that people needed because it fostered liberty by containing all of the various letters with which one expresses one's liberty. Those letters are then wedged into place within a frame, inked up, a piece of paper pressed up against them, proper pressure with the correct methods of pressure putting (developed by experts) and then pull the paper off. That is how old printing (and new printing if you do the same thing now) used to be done (can be done now but people don't usually do it that way anymore).

The problem with CSS without tables is that one is never really sure if some one is going to screw up how things work: how the various spans and divs flow. They are called spans and divs. But they have inline or block behaviors. And htere is this overwhelming rediculous adherance to the idea of a linefeed. The block display ads it in, the inline doesn't. But then there is the inline-block as a valid value for the display property. Boinggg. What the code-head thinking making it rediculous like htat. So if yo havve the magic styles, or you know how to do your blocks and inline float clear mumbo jumbo . . . you can foregoe the tables. But only if you know those secret style things. writing browser page interpretation macros that translate the stuff in an httpd document into pixels in a browser, or to sounds or other events, whatever the code may spawn

  Less is more.

well . . .

I think I've blogged enough today.

Life goes on.

~ OK Now.

I'm still merry, so the wreaths stay for now!

  My stories
  were being song
      by the crooner
    with his hat hung
      on the hook
    by the back slapping
                door
     which slammed in the wind
         if the stopper is off.
    He sang
      those stories
             so sweetly
       and the river
     rolled on
          in the sunlight
        down the hill
             across the porch
       and in eternity
         with apple blossom pedels
             raining down
            and the three guitaristas
                playing flamingo
                    flamingo
                     flamingo

                  flamingo
                     flamingo

 
  Praise God!
   Praise
       God
    For His
    Unfailing
   Love!
  Praise God!
  








Wake up!

  In this new year
 Let us hope
   that confronting
 the overwhelming bigotry
   that we face on a daily basis
   that we can all have extra strengh.

  May you know that Liberties can not
        be eroded.
   Carry on.
      be a soldier for the truth.
    Let your best gun be the gun of reasoned discourse.
  Let your ability to edit your own thoughts
      that you present
    be a blessing to the world
   as you temper down what you imagine
        and focus on what is actual and what you observe.

I'm talking to myself.

  wake up.
