Eric Meyer : The CSS Anarchist's Cookbook

"I kept telling myself that CSS should never be used for evil. That in the wrong hands, it could wreak havoc upon the face of the Web as we know it. Then I thought, what the heck, it's not like anyone can hack servers with CSS. So I gave in and joined the dark side. Once joined, I felt the need to lure others into the same trap. Sure, it's evil, but what can you do?"

Mordecai Richler : O, woe is Montreal

"In Montreal, only Schwartz's is capable of warning us of the horror that could be coming our way. So, if you should drive past and see a FERMÉ/CLOSED sign in the window, start your cars, Montrealers. Quit town. The end is nigh." To his long list of accolades, Mr. Richler can now add the much sought after and prestigious Aaronland Shut the Fuck Up Award. This is either just incoherent gibberish about a couple of professional sports teams or nostalgic pining for the olden days when everything was better; atleast better than it is now. Worst case, it is both. The 60's and 70's are over, kids. Montreal and Quebec are different places now, and we don't all think singing Gens du pays or going to the pubs on Crescent Street will solve all our problems.
