That sounds like a good back story 40hz!

I very much like the look of the other combo though
Professional  Personal  Nonsense
&
I think "Madness and winks" would work better on it's own (it would overpower the other two IMO)

An variation on first would be
Professional  Personal  Nonsensical

+1 both on your point and your variation.  :Thmbsup:

I personally prefer nonsensical since it keeps the "L" sound from personal and professional - thereby yielding a nice 3-4-4 syllable cadence plus a subtle hint of rhyme.

per-son-al - pro-fes-sion-al - non-sense-i-cal

Like it!

Hmmm...I like it because it rhymes also.  But I thought it would lose some of it's humor.  Ok, I'm changing it.  I'm a sucker for systematics.

it wasn't even that I preferred it - was just throwing it into the mix...

using nonsensical instead of nonsense makes them all adjectives. that's likely more correct if you want to preserve the grammatic schema of the tab labels.

but why would anyone care?  ;D

The parallelism hints that the three categories are of equal value.  :Thmbsup:

Yes, you are right.  I'm using it now.

unfortunately, I just broke my website by installing beta versions of wordpress and a new beta theme from the developer.  I'll have to fix it when I get home.  It's not broken, I just can't upload the beta version of the theme from work.

Nobody cares.  That's why it's even funnier.  I get 5 visitors a month...and 4 of them are me looking at my website from someone else's computer.

Ha!  Thanks!
That's my marketing strategy.  Sympathy.  I'm going to guilt my way to one million visitors.
