After weeks of procrastinating over this HTML essay, God intervened this morning when he flooded the store where I worked.

My < head > Hurts.
I have likened this HTML shit to maths. Despite actually achieving a decent score for my VCE, I managed this without so much as opening a Maths, Science or Foreign Language book (Art, Lit, English, Business Management and Theatre for the win). Back in Year 10, where my likeminded friends and I atten[...]

Online Revolution
I stumbled across this diagram when I was writing a response to something in Mass Media in Asia.
