Fonts Gone Mad.
Testing to if my fonts are goofy on this post too. Hey, maybe that’s why I got no content. Bad fonts.
Update: The fonts on my blogroll are now teeny. WTF? I think it’s that farookin Pie Post.
Another Update: I give up. It’s time for Mr. Recliner and a nice CAO Corona. If the fonts are still screwed up tomorrow, the PIE goes.
Fonts are fine as I view you on Internet Explorer. They’re small on the pie post, but o.k. elsewhere.
Small on the pie post? Wasn’t that a song by Creedence?

Using parenthesis instead of brackets, the code on the pie page (which you cut-n-pasted) says:
(A HREF=”http://quizme.stvlive.com/pie/quiz.php” target=”_blank”)(CENTER)(IMG SRC=”http://quizme.stvlive.com/pie/pecan.gif” WIDTH=”300″ HEIGHT=”100″ BORDER=”0″)(BR)(FONT FACE=”verdana,arial,helvetica” SIZE=”1″)find your inner PIE @ stvlive.com(/A)(/CENTER)
HTML 101 says “Close tags you open.”
Since there’s a (CENTER) tag, you need a (/CENTER) tag… Check.
However, you’ve defined a font with (FONT FACE=”verdana…” SIZE=”1″), but it isn’t closed with a (/FONT) so everything that follows is Verdana Size 1.
Type (/FONT) before “Can you tell…” and you should be OK.
I imagine that everyone that’s cut-n-pasted the same code has had the same problem.

Pogue is about as smart as they come.
More importantly, though, I am blueberry pie. And suddenly, I am extremely hungry.
