K2 Style Image Border

Ok I am trying out this scheme for K2 but for the life of me can not figure out how to get the border padding around the images bigger. Or, better yet, does anybody know how to change the wrap around for the text so the image class would render with out the text along the sides? Help! I am assuming I need to change the css style in the new scheme but not sure where – I took a stupid pill.

Trying out A New Theme

Ok, I am giving this K2 Theme a try. I really like the way it looks on Drumwhistles blog odd time signatures. She just changed her color scheme and header picture and it convinced me to change to the same theme. You are looking at the bare bones right now hopefully I will get a color scheme and header figured out soon.

U.S.S. Cairo Model Rudders

Not the best picture but it shows the tiny little holes I drilled in two round toothpicks to complete my custom rudders. The kit came with a small piece of wood to be cut in half and glued directly to the hull. NOT. Ugly and not to scale so I made this two up. I will not tell you how many stupid little toothpicks bit the dust. Holding the drill bit steady and gluing tiny items is challenging nowdays.Those of you who I know personally should appreciate this great feat! Those of you whom I have never met just take my word for it – this is a big deal.

Slow Day

The getto bird is buzzing around overhead and the search light is illuminating my window up here. today was a rather slow and boring one. Worked on the Cairo model, played with the dogs, and vegged on the couch watching the news. Nothing exciting.

Ever since my strokes my brain tends to get confused and more so when I am tired. Oh well, I just try to work around it’s vacation days. LOL

I have been searching around the web trying to settle the Katrina aftermath in my mind. I have learned a lot about different flood laws, insurance claims, and the amazing fortitude of numerous victims of the hurricane. Right now here in the valley we have watched levees being reinforced, new technology used on boils, and evacuations. Right now the rivers nearest myself are not at flood stage. The closest, the Sacramento, has a few boils, but they are clear water – not muddy yet.

Interesting items I have found: The 1917 Flood Control Act. I have not researched it enough to follow it’s history but it appears that the United States Army Corps of Engineers is responsible for the levees on the Mississippi and Sacramento Rivers. Since my brain is in low function mode I will review this more later. More interesting history in House Report 109-086 – ENERGY AND WATER DEVELOPMENT APPROPRIATIONS BILL, 2006
