Tiny Mix Tapes has a post about Hasil Adkins. Hunch In Peace, Haze. [via Kingblind]
While I was visiting the site, I noticed that there is a Tiny Mix Tapes Automatic Mix Tape Generator. Fun!
I think I'm done fixing all the little glitches in my site redesign. If anyone is reading this, I'd love to know what you think. (I still haven't figured out why the footer border is showing up in the middle of the content section on the archives page, and things don't look quite as good in IE as they do in Firefox, but for the most part I'm happy.)
Because I had to do all of this manually, I had a chance to skim through all of my posts and revisit some of them. For instance, my Top 10 Favorite Movies, written exactly one year ago today. The top 3 are probably still the same, but I might revise the rest of the list.
The labor-intensive nature of my posting is good for contemplation, but also acts as a safety valve. Walt Crawford (whose new blog I have been enjoying) sums it up pretty well. I've probably written at least twice the number of posts that actually made it to this blog.
That said, I am not going to keep maintaining two manually-coded feeds for very long. So, if you're reading this in an aggregator, please subscribe to the new feed. Thanks.
Hasil Adkins, one-man band, has gone to the big hunch in the sky. diy librarian raises a glass to you, Hasil.
Oddly, the only obituary I've been able to find is in the St. Paul Pioneer Press.
Like a butterfly, diy librarian has emerged from her coccoon and is ready to spread her wings and fly.
That is my hope, anyway. I haven't posted in a month because I've been working on a redesign. It turns out that back when I was young and foolish I didn't write HTML as robustly as I could have. So, in the process of retooling the diy librarian stylesheet, I had to go back and fix all of the archive pages. (As you may know, I do all of my coding by hand. It may be tedious at times, but it is a labor of love. Any irregularities in color or texture are a natural result of the hand-crafted nature of this blog.)
I have saved up many things to write about during my hiatus from the blogging world, and those that have stood the test of time (days or even weeks in some cases) will appear here soon.
