I've spent much of this weekend working on the redesign of the HoC that I proposed way back in August. I think I've got the new look and feel down. Now I just have to translate that vision into HTML.

If I had to compare the new look to what you're seeing today, I'd say it's like the new $20 and the old $20; they're clearly related, but they're also two decidedly different creatures.

As a little preview, here's the color palette I'm working with:






Can you feel it? There's something a little different in the air today.

I don't know if it's the fact that we're midway through in the NFL season, or if it's the arrival here in Washington of what used to be called (in less enlightened days) Indian Summer, or if it's because with the passage of Halloween we're now moving rapidly toward The Most Wonderful Time of the Year, but there's a palpable something out there today.

Or maybe it's just the Bass talking. You make the call.

(Note: If I'm saying "You make the call" and overusing italics, chances are I'm just a leeetle bit drunk.)



Oooo, I promised the Eddie Izzard show review by the end of the day today, didn't I? Hmmm...

Well, I laughed long and heartily. I can't wait to see the inevitable concert film when it comes out. It was worth every penny I spent.

There. It's a quick and dirty review, but for once I didn't fall down on the follow-through with one of my HoC promises.
