While scrounging through the internet for information on why I wasn't able to get this or that to display, sorting through innumerable pages of IE hacks - I came across one page with a little bit of advice: (somewhat)The last thing you want to do is allow your readers to see an unfinished design.

I'm trying to pick up the pace - but I'm really distracted with all of the nothing that surrounds me. Last night got really bad. I was swimming in a torrential downpour of worry - the sheets became waves of guilt - wrapping round me, pulling me under.

its kind of like walking around Atlanta with your pants around your ankles.
well...sort of.
God, how dare you show me your unfinished design...
