There's a clean sharpness to the lines which creates a pleasurable optics experience for the reader. The layout is simplistic with an ergonomic sense of purpose. There is a subtle genius at work here. I find the reading experience very enjoyable.
Secret judge depresses me. The complacency of his/her views is endemic of our justice system and our society. As a judge, you are a leader. Don't simply throw your hands up; propose a solution. Or let someone else lead.
So noted. I am not so sure I would call it institutional green. But I can adjust the hue. I think ir's kind of soothing and considering some of the agitated nuts who read the blog...
Alaskan king crab crab cakes with champagne and creme fresche sauces; grass fed certified angus beef kabobs; home made angel hair pasta infused with truffle oil sautéed with organic spinach and served over organic flash fried mini-artichokes. Yum. Shots of a private label russian vodka and two cases of the White House private label brewed beer. Mango Cheesecake, fresh rhubarb pie with a strawberry cream icing and "kitchen sink" cookies.
There's a clarity to the blog. A design of purpose, if you will, that seems to whisper "Come and read what is written and then respond if you like." It's crisp and clean and yet warm and inviting. I am very impressed.
We went simple today. Two twelve pound Australian Wagyu briskets, which we smoked for about ten hours with bourbon soaked wood chips. We made some chipolte cole slaw made from a small farm savoy cabbage and a couple of cases of the New Belgium Abbey Ale from Beachwood BBQ in Seal Beach. California. (Was out there on a case a few weeks ago and brought back a dozen cases- the best micro brew in the business). We had some fresh baked rolls, some chips and a big kettle of salted caramel ice cream that we made last night. This was a great tail gate.
Whatever (chomp smack) happened to a couple of (smack chomp) franks and burgers (smack smack) on the grill with a coke or a bud (smack chomp) and a bag of Lays (chomp smack) and then shot before the game? (smack chomp).
I don't like the gavel background. Too much going on. It would look better with a solid color. Also, it's difficult to find the "post comment" link because the light grey letters don't contrast well enough with the background which makes it harder to find.
It's fresh. It's clean. It's nice. Could use a splash of yellow or orange or mauve. But I'm loving it.

ReplyDeleteRumpole,
ReplyDeleteReally? Institutional green? The same color apparently required inside all schools and the Dade County Jail.
Change is not always good. Things can change for the better or the worse. This one is for the worse.
Please try again.

3:05 pm. You can insult us in many ways, as many have. But really, that is a low blow.
ReplyDeleteI'm lovin this Denver rout of Baltimore.

ReplyDeleteRump = Milt
ReplyDeleteIt is very California ... and I love it!
ReplyDeleteRum isn't pompous enough to be Milt- and you can read his posts without the Dictionary of Unnecessarily Big Words; written by and for arrogant pricks.
