Temp in Kansas City has actually gone up one degree through the late afternoon. Here in Toronto also, same weather system over us both.


Today I re-jigged the lay-out of the scorecard. Now when this text area expands down to accommodate more text, like this, the Box Score, the AB tables, the Pitcher's Tables and even the Colour Legend move down as one, line-by-line! This means I don't have to lower five CSS position elements in the code if I happen to get too verbose - now the lay out accommodates verbosity automatically!

:)

The weather here in Toronto has changed from that in KC. The great lakes lowlands are spawning fronts off the jet stream that is causing a series of storms tracking of northwest to southwest. Scarey, weather warnings have been issued as the last front came through, calm now but overcast - full of potent.
