Hello again =)

I had an idea - I could place a background image to the #content that  
holds both the middle and right columns. I could then position the  
image to the right so that it gives the faux impression (I only need  
the column to start at the top of #content div anyway). Just to check  
that the #content was working to 100% i have dropped the 'loud' blue  
in there. It's not stretching to fit its content. It is absolute so I  
have given it a bottom of 0px too - and it still isn't working.

I am one confused person - please help.
