How To Disappear Completely

Letters to the World

Dorothy Sayers noted in The Documents of the Case that literary persons generally write even their private letters in a style meant for an audience. And while I hardly claim to be a writer, I nevertheless suffer from all the writer's faults. I originally wrote this as a private email, but now I bring it to an audience...Hey, someone else might know the answer to the question, right? Actually, I really just feel that a blog is a better place for indulging narcissism....

Do you have any idea how to get something in the sidebar to be centered? The default appears to be align left, but I wanted to make it centered. It would make me feel better about life in general if I could achieve a centered sidebar. People are always telling me I need to find my center, but how can I do that if my sidebar is aligned left? Unfortunately I am too lazy to achieve my goals through the dint of sheer hard work and perseverance and wrestling with the CSS inner circle of worthy and chosen few. So, I ask you instead. Any insights you might provide to aid me in the pursuit of life, liberty, and aesthetically pleasing sidebars would be most appreciated. Appreciated in great quantities. We are talking not waves but tsunamis of appreciation here. Anyway. Have a nice day, and I mean that the way that Walmart people mean it; it's more meaningful that way. (Um, Zoolander reference again. Dang, you need to watch that movie. :) ) <---and that's NOT a smiley with a double chin, even if it looks like one. Ah, next time I will use brackets. That might make closing parenthetical remarks of a jesting nature a trifle less awkward to look at. Nope, it is just as bad. Dashes? Should I use dashes? Still no dice. Why is there not a better convention here? Why does no one else suffer from the same emoti-punctuation clashes that I do? And why am I talking to myself in an email addressed to someone else? Forgive the indulgence of eccentricity....

I am the walrus,
