Think of a Number, Don't Think of an Answer
I have no idea where Chapters gets their in-store music from (a clerk could only identify it as being "some satellite feed"), but whoever programs it gets my respect. I was browsing around, when I recognised the guitar riff that was playing. I didn't think much about it, but when I got to the cash I realised that what I was hearing was not Elastica's Connection, but the much more obscure Three Girl Rhumba by Wire.
So, whoever you are, I tip my hat to you.
The title is from the song thats mentioned. Is there a point for this title? I just assume there always is.
Errrr no. I kind of figured it was a bit too easy.
Thats what I was afrad of. Damn you point system!!
Damn you!
Consider it my revenge for the Sens losing last night.
<bitter />
Haha. I'll gladly have the leafs win and me not get a point. </not bitter>
Tsk tsk tsk. That's invalid HTML by any of the standards.
I'm always confused by the slashes. So, slashes are like words for me. I plonk them amidst any setence or structure I feel like.
It's rather simple:
Any tag beginning with a slash is closing off a pair of tags. So <foo></foo> is valid, but just </foo> is not.
Prior to the XHTML 1.0 specification, any standalone tag, such as <img> or <br> was slash-free. From XHTML 1.0 onwards, any tag that doesn't have an opening and closing tag has a space followed by a slash before the >. (i.e. <foo />)
Actually, that's not exactly correct either.
In XHTML any pair of tags that doesn't have anything between them (such as my <foo></foo> example) should be replaced by a single tag with the slash at the end.
