For years the answer has been an emphatic NO to the above question. Microsoft was kind enough to make life difficult for anyone who wished to maintain a semblance of site compatibility across the various browsers they have released. If you upgraded your browser to the latest and greatest (or not so great, considering the still remaining rendering bugs and security issues), you couldn’t use the last version that the millions of unwashed masses were still using.

The workaround was to partition up your hard drive and install multiple copies of Windows, one for each version of IE you wished to run. Or you could shell out a few hundred dollars for virtualization software like VMWare or VirtualPC and configure those to run multiple installations of Windows, each with its respective version of IE.

Finally this is no longer necessary. Joe Maddalone of Insert Title Web Designs (among others) deduced that some relatively simple changes would allow assorted versions of IE to run alongside each other. Even better, Ryan Parman packaged up all the necessary files and made them availabe for download.

So that folder full of files was tightly integrated into Windows, unable to be removed?

Yeah so I never get around to updating any more. Its cause I’m busy now…

Got to hang out with a few of my cousins that I haven’t seen in a while. Had quite a bit of fun.

Thomas Jefferson discusses the influence of Biblcal law on English Common Law, stating that a great deal of common law was in effect before Christianity came to Britian. Interesting is the observation: In truth, the alliance between Church and State in England has ever made their judges accomplices in the frauds of the clergy;

Speaking of mixing religion and politics, how about an extremist example. The BBC reports that the Lord’s Resistance Army continues to abduct, rape and enslave children. Truly disgusting what Babylon the Great does under Satan’s influence.

A couple of weeks ago my buddy Chad and his wife had a daughter, named Vanessa. Here’s a pic of me holding Vanessa:

Last week Chad was in a bad car accident and spent a few days in the hospital. Here is the wonderfully large needle they put in his arm for an IV:

I’m happy to say that everyone is home from the hospital and recovering well.

Between Chad and my friend Steve, I’ve spent way too much time in hospitals this spring.
