I finally made a new home page. The old one had served its time, lying in the ditch next to the information superhighway. An occasional visitor won't probably notice anything different -- the colours are the same, my favourite font is still Verdana, the structure is identical to the old one. What's even nicer, even the contents are old and stuffy. I also noticed that you really really can't trust FrontPage to produce decent-looking (or even valid) HTML. I'm far too lazy to correct (or write! haha) everything by hand. I'm sorry. I've tried to fix some of the worst features, but I'm sure there's still an abundance of bugs everywhere. Stay patient (said the vet to the dog), they might actually get fixed one day! If I were you, I wouldn't hold my breath, though.
So, here I am, bragging about my new home page which is basically the same stuff in a new (although deceptively old-looking) package. Talk about a rip-off. Anyway, let's use the old content, just because it's there!

This is (as the clever ones already guessed) a personal home page. This means it's a page about me, what I like and don't like. That's what personal home pages are all about - I may be wrong, but I think that very few strangers who happen to find their way here are interested in yet another boring list of links or are impressed by a couple of original "under construction" animated gifs. If you are, there are plenty of pages offering you all that and even more. I, on the other hand, am the person you should ask if you happen to have any burning questions concerning me. Nobody else would make a Katri fan page, so I guess it's up to me.

I once had an exciting encounter with a very mad American, who (for one reason or another) blamed me for not having the information he was looking for on my home page. I plead guilty. If your Google or whatever search engine you use gets you here and you can't find what you want, I guess that just means that you suck at using search engines. Also, I think it's safe to say that if you are in fact looking for any kind of actual information, you won't find it here. Just press the back button of your browser and try again. Better luck next time!  

Positive feedback is welcome, just send it to katri at luuseri dot com (I do get enough mail about low mortgage rates, Viagra, bigger members [like the giants' club!] and so on, so if that's what you're trying to sell me, don't bother). You can send negative feedback, too, but it will be deleted immediately in order to avoid further traumas. You can, for instance, send your congratulations because I think I'm finally over my Comic Sans MS stage (more on that elsewhere on my pages) (what a clever plan to lure people to actually read more than just the first page!). 

Before I let you explore any further (as if I could stop you even if I wanted to -- but a girl can dream) I will conclude this boring monologue with a quote from one of my favourite authors, Robert Rankin, who has discovered what it's all about:

"... Soap surfed the Web until lunchtime. It was all action stuff. Well, at least it was sometimes. Well, perhaps it wasn't really, to be honest. No, in fact, actually, it wasn't action at all. It was just sitting at a TV screen and typing at a keyboard, and although there are ways of putting a spin on that kind of thing and making it sound really interesting -  

  IT ISN'T! IT'S CRAP! GET A LIFE!!!!!!!

By lunchtime Soap had had his fill of the Web. He had learned from it all he could learn from it. This hadn't been all that he'd wanted to learn, but he had learned the Web's evil secret.  
And the evil secret of the Web is this, my friends.  

That all you can ever learn  
from The Web is what the  
people who put the stuff onto  
it want you to learn."
