you want to know why i never update my work website?
really want to know?
its because i built it with tables.
yes, tables.
tables for layout purposes.
back before i sang the glories of CSS.
also, also, it is in pure HTML.
not 'pure' as in 'valid.' oh, no.
'pure' as in solely and only.
no fancy php or includes or templates.
i must crawl through lines of cruddy tag soup.
i must change EVERY PAGE to change the navigation.
i must remember my way of thinking three years ago.
i get depressed every time i think about it.
avoidance is easier than redoing it in php and css.
but oh, the possibilities.

Perhaps it would be easier to create a completely new site, just copying and pasting relevant content?
but hardly easier than avoidance.
The ongoing depression, the frustration every time you see the unretouched pages, the gnawing guilt when you remember that you will have to do it someday...
Avoidance is harder. It just gets its kicks in smaller, more numerous increments. :)
wellll.....
yes, you have a point.
