Milhouse: We gotta spread this stuff around. Let's put it on the Internet!
Bart: No! We have to reach people whose opinions actually matter!
- The Simpsons
The Great Bonni appeared to me and said:
"Go forth into the world,
To the furthest
corners of the Big 8,
Tell them the message which
I have for them
The message
of the times to come.
For soon the falcon shall
lie down with the wild ox,
The lion
and the man shall be reconciled,
And a great torment will come
forth
Against
those whose head is firmly wedged in their rectum."
And I said to Bonni: "What
is this? Your words are as a clanging bell.
Can you
not speak plain English?"
And The Great Bonni appeared
to be again and said to me:
"Be silent, and know that
I am Bonni,
She who
posesses the huge tracts of land.
She from whom innuendo gushes
forth,
As the young
man has spurts of... growth.
My sarcasm is always funny,
But of course you know all about that, don't
you.
Heed not my words,
And you
shall surely be ridiculed."
And I said to Her: "Your Grace,
your message is hard.
Shall we
make here two tents, one for You and one for
Muggins?"
And The Great Bonni appeared
again and said:
"As surely as the sun rises
in the morning,
So you need
a life."
And The Great Bonni left for
a while. And I was tossing all night.

Website Updates

The other day at the grocery store, I saw something that amused me greatly, so I took a picture of it (with my phone, of course, I mean this is the 21st century and all). That picture is now on the revised 404 Error Page for this domain. The previous 404 page design, which had pictures of Zoë as a baby, crying and Warholised, is now the 404 Error Page at bromage.org.

I have a Twitter page now: http://twitter.com/bonniherself
Mon, 04 Aug 08
So, we were offline for a couple of days. We thought at first it was some sort of denial of service attack, but we're not sure at this time. We did have a kernal panic (the error log reported it as a bug) and the entire MySQL database had to be rebuilt, but... Well, we don't know. We're just going to keep an eye on it and see.
Please note that I have an "offsite" blog where I post if this server goes offline. If you care at all (and most people probably don't, I know, but for that one in a million who does...), go to http://bonni-soanyway.blogspot.com/ and bookmark it or subscribe to the RSS. Then if you're ever wondering what happened (if this site is offline), you can look there and see if I've posted anything.

I did a bit of rearrangement on Missycat's pages, which haven't had a redesign in... well, a long time. Years. Can't remember how long, but it's a long time. I didn't change the design (which I still quite like, fur and pawprints and all), but I got rid of the Rings page and just put all the rings on the index page, which makes more sense for that particular site.
Sun, 18 Nov 07
Well, the overall design is the same, but as you can see, I've moved some columns around and fiddled with the information a bit. I decided to combine my old "intro" page with this one (it redirects to here now).
Wed, 10 Oct 07
Yes, this page has been updated. The design is sort of psychadelic grunge-fantasy, and it's about as different from the old monochromatic, Renaissance inspired "scroll" design as I could get....

This Domain in a Nutshell
I've had a personal homepage since early 1994, and bits of that original
site can still be seen in my personal pages and in the unicorn pages,
as some of the content there dates back that far. My first homepage was
designed without graphics, because I only had a text-only browser at the
time (I didn't have the right kind of connection to the internet to use a graphical browser, which, in that day and
age, was pretty much Mosaic, although I'm not entirely sure when Netscape 1 appeared on the scene). My
second homepage, which was graphical, was designed in Netscape 1.1. I
did many of the graphics on it myself, using Paint Shop Pro (version 3,
I seem to recall).
This domain has been online since May 1998. It was the first domain I
ever personally set up, and by "set up" I mean that I registered the domain,
entered the DNS information on the name server, set up the virtual domain
in the Apache server config, set up the mail aliases, everything. I didn't
have the luxury of a control panel. I did it all entirely by hand. Come
to think of it, I still don't have a control panel and have to do all
that stuff by hand...
