Welcome to Ramblings From the Dark

and sadlittleboy.com

If you've come here looking for sadlittlewebjournal, I'm afraid the author closed up shop. I don't know him, but I do have a way of contacting him! He's written and suggested people looking for that software check out Wordlog which seems to be a new version he maintains. You can reach him (Tim Lupfer) by going to his personal site

This document is written in strict XHTML 1.1. I tried to use XHTML 1.0 Transitional, but MSIE didn't even seem able to display this warning message in that version. If your browser doesn't support this, get a better one. :) Browsers known to support this standard well enough to correctly display this page: Mozilla App Suite 1.0+, Netscape 7.0+, Mozilla Phoenix/Firebird/Firefox/Browser. Browsers that display the page ok, but with a few missing features: MSIE 5+, Konqueror, lynx 2.8+

Personally, I review the site in the Mozilla Phoenix Firebird Firefox web browser. (damn name changes) It is fast, lightweight, and standards compliant. Unfortunately, it doesn't support email/newsgroups reading, so I'm forced to use the more memory intensive Mozilla App Suite for that until Mozilla Thunderbird is more stable. Mozilla Firefox also is still in beta testing, but it already works better than some other browsers.

As of version 6.0, MSIE still cannot display this page correctly. It does not support 32-bit PNGs with transparency, PNGs as shortcut icons, SVGs (with or without transparency), CSS generated content, or CSS fixed positioning. It doesn't even support the <abbr> tag used above, as trivial as that would have been to add especially since it does support the often mis-used <acronym> tag. At least it can mostly display the page correctly.

These works are the stories and poems that come to my mind as I lay in bed waiting to fall asleep. When I get one I think is interesting or particularly emotional, I come over to my computer and I write it down. Please note, these stories are only stories. They are also somewhat dark, (gee go figure) so if you don't want to read something like that, by all means don't.

This list will be updated as I write new stories, or as I have the time to type in some of the ones I wrote before.
