Interesting find this evening, how Jimmy Eat World got their name:
This is the story. Tom has many brother and sisters and sometimes they get in scuffles. So, one day two of Tom's younger brothers were feuding. They were Ed and Jimmy, Ed being the youngest of the two. So like always, the older brother is getting the better of the younger one and the insults started flying. Well, Jimmy finally just locked his little brother out of the room that they shared and Ed was getting really flustered. So Ed did what any 8 year old would do, he broke out the crayons and drew a picture of his chubby, older brother Jimmy shoving what appeared to be the earth into his gapping mouth. The caption at the bottom read "jimmy eat world". Ed placed the masterpeice on the fridge in the kitchen for all to see. We thought that was really funny and decided to name our band after the caption.

I have been a little bored today as you can see from the new splash page. I think it was more of a somber mood then anything. Today was the first day I have had off from work in about 2 weeks. My bank account is happy though.
So I don't know about that splash page. Usually when I start getting away from simplicity, it isn't pretty. That and the load time for the page is a little high. My designs usually are though. So deal with it until I decide if I want to keep it or not. It does add a level of class around here though. The more I start at it the more I like it. If you really hate it though, let me know.

Happy second birthday Haer Ye!
Hear is wishing you another 2 great years. Inferno is also starting a majordomo mailing list for e/n related things. So check that out. I signed up as list-en-er@slightlynorth.com but it told me that had to be verified since my email headers were not the same. That takes some of the fun out of my little jokey-poo.
