after spending an embarrassingly long amount of time manipulating the html template... i reached the 'good enough' point. and called it 'good.' ... and, i really am glad that Our Creator didn't have a similar method.anyway. here i am. and here you are, and having come to terms with the reality that except in rare delightful circumstances (like weddings or conincidental geographic proximity) ...
