What is a good web-site design tool that is easy to use and please could you point me in the direction of a decent “blog provider” type thing. Also, you say you hate monkeys but what of Apes? Apes are not the same as Monkeys I was told.
Most people start out on blogspot using, where people extremely patient will be able to eventually read what you write… on good days. I prefer MoveableType, but you will need to get your own URL and hosting service for that. What nice about MoveableType is that when you link to me you’ll be able to send a Trackback to the post you linked. Then people will see all the trackbacks I have for that post and say, “Wow! Frank writes popular posts.”
As more Monkey/Apes, they all are the same to me and just as evil. Don’t even worry yourself with that divide. Just shoot to kill.

Saw your reference to Zaitoichi and blind Samurai below. I had just finished watching a Zaitoichi marathon on cable last week. Blind samurai rock! But who do you think was the better blind samurai, Zaitoichi or Rutger Hauer in “Blind Fury”?
Well, I only saw one Zaitoichi movie so far, but, then again, there is only one Blind Fury movie. Zaitochi seemed to be able to equal in sword combat many different seeing opponents, while Hauer only fought one opponent with a sword quite awkwardly. Then again, Hauer mainly took on enemies with guns. Still, Zaitoichi seems to be the more traditionally skilled, while, on the other hand, Hauer is an American and Americans always win. I think I’ll just flip a coin to decide who would win.
…crap, I don’t have any change. Well, all you readers can flip your own coins: heads Zaitoichi wins, tails Rutger Hauer.

What’s a really, really cool name for a baby girl?
How about Zora, like that chick form Who Wants to Marry a Millionaire. Sounds like the name of an Amazon warrior to me. That’s kinda cool. In all honesty, though, I really shouldn’t be naming kids.
Please keep the questions coming, <a href=”mailto:THISISSPAMTHISISSPAMace you’re from, I’ll randomly select one.
Rutger wins hands down…besides, I’m still holding a grudge for Pearl Harbor.
Wow, I wrote the above before reading the stuff below…Frank and I must be mind melded or something. Get your filthy Vulcan hands off of me…and go wash your brain.
One problem, Hauer is Dutch, not american. Still, he expertly skewered that evil bishop in Ladyhawke so he does know the proper way to use a bigass sword.
Cool Girl Name: Zepher
Doh! Zephyr
Zephyr is a hippie name. I actually knew a hippie girl by that name. I don’t think Frank would ever give a kid a hippie name, would you Frank?
Beware! The Monkeys are influencing you, Frank! Zora was the name of the female CHIMPANZEE scientist in Planet of the Apes! (Or was it Zera? OH well, they sound enough alike – who wants a name that sounds like a Monnkey?)
Orion
“…One problem, Hauer is Dutch, not american…”
He’s an HONORARY Amurrican…and if little Zephyr puts on a few too many pounds, we can call her Zeppelin…
Zaitochi wins hands down. In his 637 movies, he annihilated over 3,847,021 Japanese bad guys, of whom well over half a million were extraordinarly well-trained swordfighters.
Blind Fury guy killed a couple of dozen guys, tops.
Zora sounds like a good name, if you live on the “Planet of the Apes”
About blogging, I recommand you Grey Matter. It is only a cgi-script, without SQL database.
My favorite pattern of Grey Matter is that they have several icons, and very huge icons. It is simple to install, and simple to use. You can manage all your page very easily and use it without constrained.
About the girl name, I should think of Heliot. Her fantaisy name could be Heliotness… which sounds like a kind monster name, a man name actually.
I hate monkeys, too, and especially Apes.
When people ask me why and I run through a list of the reasons that begin with their poo flinging habits, freakish strength, gross hand-feet, and tendencies to just scream like hellions even those whom I consider fairly reasonable people just laugh it off. But I’m serious. Monkeys are bad news, yo.
I don’t like birds either but that’s a different story.
