I've just spent most of the day updating My Space so that it actually says something about me. I think that after more than 9 months on the site I really ought to say hello properly.
*Hello properly*
Comments anyone?

I don't mind at all that people use the things I create! And I don't mind not being credited. But I *do* get a little irritated when other people 8almost) are credited for my work.
And why don't you join the fan club?

And - this has nothing to do with your page, but it's much more important:
Happy Birthday!

Hi 20/8 & Clive
Given that as I type there is about 20 minutes to play and no score. The Owls might, just might, be on for a great result.
Like I am now, AcidBath is a Brighton lad, well bloke in his 40s to be precise. He seems to have pretty much disappeared from this place and even from the Yahoo refugee camps. I'll drop him an e-mail at some point to see what his plans are.
Um.. the link to the *conservatives* was deliberate. I think it needs a bit of revision. My aim was to register my disgust with the present government.

Today I fiddled around a bit more. I've added some more links, some more names and some colours. And most importantly I've added the ACE drop down box in celebration of my elevation to those dizzy heights

Yet more fiddling has gone on today.
I've taken out the SheffU songs as they were a bit distracting to the flow of the page and put them into a separate page (well they'll be there when I've written the blessed thing.)
I'm adding links for "places" and "influences". Most taken from the Guide but some are external. Its a question of what seems the best as I search through.
And the new SETI blob has been added. Although it seems to be playing up at the moment. It can't decide whether its a square or a rectangle. No doubt that will settle down in time.
Thanks for listening, and don't forget to tune in later for the next exciting installment

Sorry, must have got my maths wrong. I'm sure I worked out from somewhere back in the Yahboo times that you were 42 or 43. But what's more important than that, no sooner had I said you'd disappeared - you show up again
One little question. How do you do those weird characters in your posts? Is it done using the entity tag things? Or with ASCII alt+ commands?
