Roll The Tapes (and rest awhile)
For I have a made a music for you! A music!
The story behind this is a good one. Patrick Stump from Fall Out Boy turned up drunk at my door and asked to borrow my accordion, I said he couldn't borrow it but I'd help him with whatever it was he needed it for. We knocked out this little do-over of one of his songs.
Not one of my favourite songs actually. But hey, it's not like I chose it and lied about the whole thing!
Changing the subect slightly; uploading stuff has become easier over the years, but I didn't know until know how hard (or impossible) it is to align embedded things! Does anyone know how? Will someone teach me?
Seriously, I've been doing this about half an hour. And in the end I had to make it 396 pixels wide just so it was centered.

A nice; a multimedia. Yes.
It sounds like you have the same problem with your recording setup that I do. You probably don't though; you probably have a different problem, or just added the static for effect.
Supposedly ALIGN="LEFT"/"CENTER"/"RIGHT" should work with embed tags but I've never tried it. I just, yeah, make them about the same width as the column.
It was for effect. In fact, I don't even own a tape machine. Or an accordion. Nor have I jammed with Patrick Stump. Nor is this even a recording.
*SHAMED!*
The align="center" is a lie. Or at least, it doesn't work for me.
By the way, do you know anyone with mad-HTML-skills that could help me with my font problem?
It's meant to all be tahoma all over but the font still doesn't show up in some browsers.
I suspected as much. You don't need a tape machine in this day and age. I didn't know the accordian part was a lie. But I guessed the Stump part was one. As is your final statement above, although that depends how you define "a recording" I guess. Illusion of language etc blah.
DIV tags? I don't know. Not really. J could maybe help but she's quite busy.
Tahoma is a relatively obscure font, they're always bad HTML news. Tahoma All Over would be a good name for something though.
I always wanted an accordion. But I don't have one yet. I just bought a violin.
It's not a recording in the sense that I didn't record any sounds. I guess you'd call it a sequencing.
Maybe I will ask J, but making fit the screen isn't so bad.
Also, I didn't know tahoma was so obscure. It's so tidy and neat, It's a wonder that the world isn't using it.
I even view your blog in tahoma and you like that font that looks like a newspaper headline... whatever it's called.

Can you play it at all? It's said they're not easy to learn. I once taught myself to play the cello. But I never got very good.

I didn't even think of that. The vocal track is a recording (presumably). But not made by you.

It's always worked well enough for me. Although you are not me. The lengths that I would go to; the distance in your eyes. Oh no, I've said too much.

Serif fonts are No Good for onscreen body text according to conventional design wisdom. Although I don't buy that myself, it's maybe a factor. Or maybe not.

The font in the masthead is called "1942 Report". It's not so much like a newspaper headline as it is like the output from a battered old manual typewriter. I'm a fan of the battered-old-manual-typewriter aesthetic.
