Updated: August 28th, 2008: Want to hear something funny? Well, DO YOU?! It seems as though, after having begun this site about five years ago after learning basic HTML, a little CSS, and some Java that I still don't quite understand, I have almost completely forgotten the entirety of simple HTML. Apparently school and work has fried my brain and caused severe amnesia, so severe that I cannot recall such generic things that I learned in high school.
It's ironic in every way -- the higher our education becomes, the more we forget the simplier things. That could explain why Bush uses words like "unawares," though higher education is used loosely in his case. That would explain the "ignorance is bliss" statement. Or for those who went "huh??" at that last statement, here's another example:
On an episode of Married with Children (no idea which one or what year), Kelly goes on a quiz show. Bud and the family help her bone up on everything she should know, and she actually learns a vast amount of knowledge. Bud says that for every fact we learn, we forget something we already knew. The final question on the quiz show asked who was an all-star quarterback for...etc. etc. And she couldn't remember that it was her own father Al, who had done nothing for the whole of her life except for talk about his high-school football career. Tee hehe.
Product Placement for Today: SIGN, YOU FOOLS!!
Today Is: Color Me A Smartass Day! Today, don't be afraid to talk to complete strangers. Walk up to them and say something about the color of their clothes, but make sure it's false. For example, if they are wearing blue, say "I love your green sweatshirt." When they correct you by saying "It's not green; it's blue!" your reply should be a smug "It's not blue; it's azure!" Learn a lengthy amount of obscure colors and use them to sound like a smart-ass -- but make sure you have the correct one, otherwise you'll appear stupid...and this "day" is soooo not intended to make you look stupid.
*Special Feature*: It's not your birthday (sorry). It's not a holiday. It's pretty much just another shit day. Or IS it?? The list of past days may prove otherwise. What are you waiting for? Eternal bliss lies beyond this link, silly!
A Word of Welcome: I guess that would just be "umm, hi."
