> Q. What the heck is a Robot Death Monkey?

A. An Invader Zim reference that we took a little far. In the last episode of the show Sizz-Lorr! says "I've got a surprise for you" and Zim says "Giving me a robot death monkey?". We laughed, perhaps a bit too hard and it went from there.

> Q. How come the menus don't work in Internet Explorer?

A. A very good question. IE doesn't support the nice popup CSS menus without some Javascript or DHTML, which I simply refuse to use for something like that. Besides, the navigation pages are nice anyway.

I learned of the method used to create them from a guy named Eric Meyer.

> Q. How did you make this site?

A. All the graphics were done with Inkscape and The GIMP, and all the code was written in Vim. I can't stand WYSIWYG editors.
