New Name, Same Ol' Madrobins

I have taken the time to improve (as the developer-guys say) the look and feel of my of my DW page, and have therefore renamed it. Given it the name of my late, forgotten Blogger page: 100 Percent, Doc. The line comes from a book I adore, called Red Sky at Morning, which is one of the books that bit me early and provided both comfort and amusement at a point in my life when I needed some of both (translation: I was 14. It mirrored certain aspects of my life. I figured if Josh Arnold, the protagonist of RSAM, could emerge from his experiences I would emerge from mine).

The line itself, "100 Percent, Doc" (more properly rendered as "hunnerd percent, doc") comes from a scene involving a U.S. Army training film on the horrors of advanced syphillitic dementia, being shown to a bunch of adolescent boys. Beyond that...well, read the book.
