Yes, I did change the design of the blog.  No, I’m not too keen on the way it looks, either.  However, I needed to do something to make the text easier to read and I think that mission was accomplished. If nothing else.

I’m not sticking with this design, but it’s the best I’ve got for the moment with limited time and very limited design skills.  I’ll probably keep playing with it to keep you on your toes.  If you know someone who enjoys beer and working with Blogger and its odd CSS provisions, send them my way.  We’ll all be thankful for the next design.
