Original Lovely Day Rant

Wow, what a bee yoo tee full day. It's 93 degrees, and sunny, and just all around lovely. And there are supposed to be thunderstorms later. Keen.

Here's another original masturbation term -
Inspecting the ceiling.
It's not as good as "making the beast with one back," but I still like it.

I'm inaugurating a new feature here MAOD, and that is:
Red's Rants�
From time to time, I'll rant. Not like I haven't already. But now it's all official-like.

And now, Red's Rant� for the day!

Today's Topic - Diary Design

Now, first off, I know that folks can design their diaries any old way they want, but hey - if you want folks to read yer dang diary - and that is an assumption I am forced to, by the fact that you publish the derned thing, how about making them legible?

Contrast and typeface are of paramount importance in legibility, but some of y'all seem to have forgotten that little dictum. I don't wanna name any names, but come on folks - 10 pixel type faces and pink on pink text or gray on blue text just don't make for the happiest reading experience.

Do you people ever look at your own diaries?

People are reading these things on computer monitors, fer Elvis' sake! Pixelation, folks! Yikes!

And I'm not even going to get into the horror that is failing to capitalize properly.
