  Hmmm ... if you're using Firefox, go to

  You'll notice the "Obligatory Picture" on the left.  Then select from the
menu "View->Page Style->April Fool's 2006" and then scroll down a bit. 
You'll then notice that the "Obligatory Picture" is now below the Amazon ads
(which themselves have shifted down) on the right hand side.  I did not use
floats for either style, nor did I play with layers.  Granted, it took some
playing around with but since I don't really *care* for IE compatibility
it's not all that hateful (just some).
