Do I really need to go on, heck, read some more for yourself, doubles as entertainment when it dosen't make you cry. I doubt you hear much of them if you watch Fox news or even CNN these days.

Well, I tried, but the constant pop-up ads made it almost impossible to read. Better yet, go here. This is the site you COPIED it from, after all, right down to the pictures and the title at the top of the page.

Creepin' Christ, Jag. If you're gonna steal somebody else's work, at least have the good sense to:

a) copy the pictures, too, instead of just linking back to the images on your victim's server, and
b) strip out the CLASS tags (unless you also stole their stylesheet files).

Sooner or later, somebody who understands HTML will right-click to read your source code, and they're gonna figure out what you've done.

Of course, suggestion B might be beyond the skill of somebody who uses Microsoft Frontpage to create a website:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-au">
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 5.0">
<meta name="ProgId" content="FrontPage.Editor.Document">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">

Dammit. I was kinda impressed that you'd actually bothered to comb through the news and collect all of those "Bushisms". I never pegged you for a thief. *A sad and disappointed Hubris Boy wanders off to make himself a cup of tea.*

*laughz, oh someone picked that up =)
If you check the date inside the stuff on that sheet though you find its rather old, i did that about a year ago, since then that site has undergone numerous changes, i totally forgot, i was young and innocent back then =)

As for the frontpage metatags...Ever uploaded anything with frontpage? Has a nasty habit of overwriting in its metatag, which is extremely annoying and i usually forget to remove it and salvage my dignity. Hopefuly getting some space of a sydney uni box soon to kill popups forever. Truth be told half those pages were done frontpage simply to to speed, paste in an essay, whatever, save, upload. If i was doing something pretty i'd use dreamweaver/flash. When you do homework till 1am 4 nights a week you tend push such things back in priority.

On the flipside i don't know many people who bother to read the source, why were you in the first place?? =P

Oh heck whenever i get round to it ill redo the entire site in flash, its just time consuming to have to redo all the pretty pictures in a vector-friendly style. (he says tapping away in his midnight break from homework...)

Cup of tea? You work in IT, you should drink coffee!, whst is the world coming too *wanders off in another directing also looking for a cup of tea*
