Such forms include, but are most definitely not limited to: two or more planets; any number of smaller asteroids; a quantum singularity; a dust cloud.

Hi,

I have been working on a Web Mail application and have released it
under the GPL on sourceforge:
mockingbird.sourceforge.net/

It is currently at version 0.1 and is most likely riddled with bugs and
inconsistencies.

It is intended to run on a vanilla PERL install or cheap webspace.

If you have time, please install it and let me know how you get on with
it – if you have any trouble installing it, find any bugs, or any other
comments let me know.

thanks

Pete

I was just tagging and tidying up my growing collection of blues
recordings and I revisited some of the excellent work of Alan Lomax.

Found this: www.alan-lomax.com/

Check it out when you’ve a spare moment…. A modern legend and one
helluva dude!

He’s in my pantheon.

For anyone who has not heard this one already. And forgive the pun…

….. instead, just follow the herd and passively absorb and regurgitate the trends of the minute. Don’t appreciate anything old – much less own a little piece of history – it’s just an advertisement for your own strangeness and an invitation to victimhood.

My 1962 Philips was solidly chained up just outside my door in my front garden – just like bikes all over London. Today I noticed it wasn’t there anymore and called the cops. They already knew and told me to go to Dalston Kingsland fire station.

Here’s what it looked like in its heyday:

Here’s what it looks like after some mindless cuntz stole it and torched it:

Personally, I preferred it before. Another little sweet piece of engineering history bites the dust for absolutely no fucking reason at all. So if I ever catch anybody in the act of stealing from me in the future I’m going to kick them to death for this one as well.

Here’s today’s pass notes from the Grauniad…

Now just think of all those Satanist/Death Metal knob-ends who have

Pass notes

616

Thursday May 12, 2005

Why are you peering at that child’s scalp? Has he got headlice? No,
he’s been misbehaving and I’m trying to see if he is branded with the
number of the beast, like Damien in the Omen. Obviously.
And is there any sign of 666? No, because that’s not the number of
the beast.

Excuse me, but I think you’ll find it is. I quote: “666, the number
of the beast. Hell and fire were spawned to be released.” That
doesn’t sound like the Book of Revelation.

It’s not, it’s Iron Maiden. But it’s shorter than “Let him that hath
understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of
a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.” But both
your Bible and your Maiden are wrong. The number of the beast is
actually 616.
Where did the other 50 go? They were never there in the first place.
Oxford University researchers looking at the oldest available copy of
the New Testament, which dates back to the third century, have just
realised the number is the Greek figures for 616.

What? The book’s nearly 2,000 years old and no one has bothered
reading it properly till now? To be fair, it wasn’t excavated until
1895. And it was very dirty. Only now do we have the advanced imaging
technology to strip away the dirt and see the truth.

So how did we end up with 666? The same way we end up with every row
about the meaning of scripture. The Bible has been copied so many
times it’s like Chinese whispers. For all we know, Moses might have
confronted God’s gurning mush, not his burning bush.

Still, at least we now know the devil’s number. Probably not,
actually. Scholars believe the number to be a political puzzle
relating to someone’s name – and they think that name is Nero.

Not Tony? Oh, stop being facetious.

not sure this will go down too well with the mac purists here, but
this guy has immersed his whole PC into a fishtank full of oil.

cool.
