Delegate Who-Now?

I got a mailing out of the blue from Delegate Dwyer of Maryland District #31 the other day. I’m on his mailing list because I designed his webpage, three years ago. I’m not sure which bothers me more: what an astonishingly evil side of conservative politics he represents, or how thoroughly he has killed what was once a passably attractive webpage.

My word. Did his mom design that? Or maybe an epileptic dog?

Believe it or not, the original design was by me. And it was fine, in a 2001 kind of way. But the charming headings, paragraph styles, and most beautifully, the random chopping out of huge swaths of the page, have given it an effect entirely of Delegate Dwyer’s own creation.

Oh, I realize you did the original, and I wasn’t critiquing your work. But it’s very obvious that this butchery is no longer your work. But still, I must retract my previous comment - I once had an epileptic black lab who wasn’t exactly Lassie even without being zonked on barbiturates, and I would seriously have expected better code from him.

Sorry for misunderstanding you. Anyway, yeah… I think you’re right to give more credit to your epileptic black lab. I think it takes the upright posture to make something that is such an affront to God.
