Don't look at me. I think these people are completely nuts.
This post will not in itself show it, but I have been working a great deal on my blog. As you can see, I have changed the template.
Again.
What do you think?

Those tiny reflections in his eyes kinda freak me out.
I like it. But now feel shame for the blah-ness that is my blog.
I like the new look, but I really preferred that little grim reaper you had sitting down in the corner.
On a completely random note, I went back and read the first entries in your blog out of boredom. I must inform you that Super Mario Bros. 3 is better than Super Mario World. This is factually accurate down to the last pixel.
No, SMW is better. This isn't even open to debate unless you are at least referring to the SNES update of SMB3 for Super Mario All Stars, and even then you are still wrong. The only thing from that game that I wish had carried over was the frog suit.
And I also feel compelled to say that "I have nothing to declare except my genius" is not a David Sloan quote but rather Oscar Wilde. This is to deflect any accusations of a)unbelieveable conceit and/or b)plagiarism. I'd also like to say that it's not fair, because Oscar Wilde was born way before me. If he hadn't be I would surely have beat him to that quote.
Did Oscar Wilde have dyslexia (or a mischevious sense of humor)? I refer, of course, to the spelling of "genius".

Good eye, my friend!
You win the prize of the being the first one to see that. It's an interesting question. This is actually how the quote is spelled in many cases, and I myself debated how to proceed.
Upon further research, I discovered that he supposedly said this upon his first visit to America when asked in the New York Customs House whether he had anything to declare. As it was a spoken quote, I suppose any errors in spelling are just that.
In any case, since I am not Oscar Wilde and so I thought even if it's not a correct quotation, a mispelling within a claim to genius is pretty darn funny.
