Ugh! I can't beleive I fell for it again! Normally I don't like to bitch about other people's diaries, people can write what they want about whatever and lay it out in whatever fashion they see fit. The rodent's diary is an entirely different animal altogether however. The rodent I am speaking of is non other than *DUN-DUN-DUNNNNN* the dreaded squirrelx! I find myself wary at every banner ad that does not have a site reference but I still find myself clicking at the more ingenious ones anyway and more often than not it seems to be *DUN-DUN-DUNNNNN* you guessed it, the site of the dreaded rodentius incognitus!

I just don't undersand how someone who can fabricate such brilliant banner advertisements but can't get her act together to put together a usuable, uncluttered diary layout. Does she have a million dollar advertising budget with an agency hard at work making new and catchy banners for her but forgot to allocate some of that million to the design and layout? If I could only have a weekend working on her layout, I'd put the quotes on a separate page, all the other links and banners on whole different page, and I'd manage to make the majority of the content fit at least within a 1024 x 768 resolution page. I'd get rid of the standard diaryland image maps and make a navigation bar or several drop down navigation lists. Then maybe I'd stick around and perhaps read more of her actual diary content. But anyway enough bitching, on with my life...
