  Kiki, the ferret
 
(URL) Those of you who are familiar with Sluggy Freelance should recognize this character immediately. Those of you who aren't...well, Kiki is a hyperactive ferret (moreso than normal) that just begged to be immortalized in plastic. Seriously, she's (...)

[ XFUT lugnet.off-topic.geek ] (...) LoL But if I am not mistaken, John got his SGML entities right. As I remember the SGML standard, you don't have to close a SGML entity with a semicolon. Play well, Jacob (21 years ago, 15-Feb-04, to lugnet.org, lugnet.off-topic.geek)

  Re: me vs. microsoft
 
Never mind. I managed to figure it out. Basically, if you call the images a BACKGROUND attribute of the table cell (instead of putting an IMG tag inside the table cell, like I was doing), MSIE will render the page just fine. I'd like to point out (...) (21 years ago, 27-Jan-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

  Re: Golden Ratio (was Over 70 LEGO products copied)
 
(...) The golden ratio is related to a different sequence: the ratio between consecutive numbers of the Fibonacci sequence approaches Phi. Or phi, if you go backwards. So, if the monolith were golden-ratio realated, its sides in the primary three (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jan-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
