New Layout
Yup! I decided to put up a new layout..I got the idea yesterday when I was reading about plagues..the poem above was the song children skipped to during the Spanish Flu pandemic of 1918-1919..I looked it up because my dad said that he's never heard of someone healthy dying of the Flu..I told him there was a serious flu at the beginning of the century that killed a lot of people, including healthy people..he didn't believe me..but I was right tho..The Spanish Flu killed over 600,000 people in America and 20-40 million worldwide in one flu season..that's more than the first World War and more than what 4 years of the Black Plague did..and it attcked mostly healthy 20-40 year-olds..ha! See?? I know my morbid history..the pictures I found looked like the photos they showed of people in Chinese hospitals whe SARS came along..and now they look like hospital people in America with the new regulations..they were pictures of everyone wearing doctors' masks..kinda creepy..just makes me wonder, after "Ring Around the Rosie" and "I Had a Little Bird", what will be the next rhyme to skip to?
I swear, media people should think of this: When there is a supposed flu outbreak, show plague movies! The best entertainment is when it reflects human fears and hopes..so I think they should show "The Stand", "Outbreak", "Virus", etc..and the History channel should show documentaries of past plagues..after "Dead Zone" I'll try to read "The Stand" again..I've read the first part 3 times and then get destracted..grr..it's a good book, too..but it'll probably give me flu symptoms..lol..
I did a layout of the "Flu" because everyone else is doing Christmas and Winter..I wanted to do something "seasonal" but not look like everyone else's..so I again tried to think a little different..
This kind of layout is different for me, too..I tried a color effect making the table titles are gradients when they are not..
Thank God for CSS..without it, this layout would've taken DAYS..
