I know I've used it before, but the title fits today.
I finally took a look at my web site, not my blog here, my Geocities web site, and I've begun the process of completely revamping the whole thing. I'm going to make it standards compliant as much as I can, and I'm gong to try to give it a more uniform look for all of it's pages. I have a couple things planned for my web site, a neat, eyecatching, but simple index page, a links page for all those programs and sites I mention constantly here (Pixia, Irfanview, etc), a more thorough and in depth photos page, and a few other things that I'll be putting together later on.
Part of the roof leak is also being worked on, so hopefully the rain will hold off and let them get to the worst parts (there are more than one leaky spots apparantly). I'm relieved that a professional was called in for this one. The thought of being three stories up on a ladder didn't exactly thrill me. oh well, that's one more thing being fixed, now to get to the other bazillion things that need repair around the house, money permitting of course.
I've rotated my quizes and put a couple up today, I'll probably drop it back down to one in the next few days. All of the features results I have up are ones I had to recode to get cleaner, easier to read code for me. Now I just have to get on that glitching result in my Quiz Manager and have it removed.

I'll have to take your word for that on the picture, I'm not familiar with the series. I just like Dia de los Muertos as a name, I really don't know a whoel lot about the holiday. If I remember right, it's like a blend of Memorial Day and Halloween.

I may not know a whole lot about Spanish, but I can tell you the literal translation of the phrase is "day of the dead" or something very close to that. The picture is all right, I wish I'd thought of it sooner so I could have put more effort into it.

I hear that, it's a cools holiday name, I think that's why I brought it up. Same here though, just another day for me.

I wasn't aware of the actual date until I looked it up. I should know more about it considering I lived in Texas for a while and knew a few hispanic people myself. If the infomation I found is correct, it's actually two days, Nov 1 and 2, which is kind of like Halloween used to be with Mischief Night for those who remember what that was.

I did say I would feature it, and I got it up after I recoded it to look cleaner on site here. I'm actually proud of that result too, of all the American comics, the Batman is my favorite character, he's probably one of the most believable hero figures in that he's just a human with no super powers.
Actually Dia de los Muertos is more a of a celebration. If I recall my facts correctly, in Mexico they do things like cleaning up cemetaries, and decorating their family's tombstones with flowers, food, and things like skulls made of sugar. It may sound much more evil that out Halloween, but I don't think it actually is.
I assume you're referring to my dragon self's rather crude outfit. He'll get a better one next year, I'll be planning ahead for it so I can do myself some justice for a change. I do have to point out that no one seems to have hazarded a guess as to what he's actually wearing.
