P.S. Jimmy ... I don't know if you missed the day y'all talked about positive criticism or constructive criticism in your writing class but I'm pretty sure saying things such as "The new color scheme of your blog, while interesting, basically sucks" falls into the category of being positive or constructive. I think the pattern they teach is something like sandwich style ... you know ... positive point, negative point, positive point. For example, you might have said, "Mamie, it is nice that you used green because it is my favorite color but overall your blog colors suck. However, I also really like that toilet paper roll you included." I barely felt the raw sting of the negative by all the padding of the positive. Positive, Negative, Positive. I feel very sad for your creative writing classmates on critique day. very sad indeed. Perhaps you should take a cue from your peer reviewer Erin who above you makes the same point quite eloquently by POLITELY pointing out the suckiness of my color scheme. haha.
And just for the record. The last color scheme was experimental ... I am just figuring out how to change the colors on my own and black, red, and booger green were the first three that sort of went together that I could get to come up before I got sick of playing with it.
other P.S. I just reread that and it sounded kind of mean and mad ... I'm not mad ... I was laughing when I read y'alls comments and as I was writing this. just for clarification. and I like watermelons and their colors.

that green reminds me of kiwi. kiwi makes me itch.
What I meant to say instead of ",while interesting," was "The color of your blog, while really really really $#!++^, and being the most incredibly offensive eyesore I've ever encountered in all of my viewing time on earth, including the eyesore of your horrific face, and all it's disgustingness, OH GOD, I do not envy my fellow man, who has to face those three colors, and furthermore READ in them. LORD SAVE US!!! Those three colors combined signify the coming of the APOCALYPSE, and anyone who joins those devastating hues must be the mother of the antichrist, the BEAST who will suck the blood of all the saints of the earth. HOW I WISH MY EYES HAD NEVER SEEN SUCH A GREEN NEAR SUCH A PINK, AND--AS IF TRAPPED IN THE LOWEST PITS OF HADES--FORCED TO READ IN THOSE COLORS!!!, basically sucks."
So, to sum up. I was being very positive compared with what I really thought.
Really though. I'm glad I can read your thoughts now. I like them, O Mother of the Antichrist.
Love ya,
Jimmy
seriously you guys... my face is breaking out... i think its the kiwi... green... (cough)
wow i see how its gonna be ... the tone of this comment page is reminding me a lot of the way it was in the old pranking days ... and, jimmy, i think we all remember who dominated those.
i guess sometimes it pays to be the mother of the antichrist.
