not an expert at all

well, i've been trying to rearrange some things here on the blog, and i am clearly not an expert at all.  actually, way back when, as an inexperienced and idealistic undergrad, i knew how to design a website, i even knew how to code!  well, well, well, not any more.  not even close.  so, hopefully things won't look too crazy as i try to figure this out.
