Whoso pulleth this word from this mouf will be the trueborn Queeb of Llywernog!

puttering about the mindscape, nahp. finding only old oily cloths and battered portmanteaus fillt with socks withal. and the thumpyer said that all the seas would crease their eyes and drink the firment up. do see the wip or thum that gord or blahs the nahtty.

golden daredevils plummet: defenestrated all. kiss their gold-heads and close their pore pore eyes. feel the grummy nuppit, when all the yold party-favors call to collect their wares. askulap the telefonical: feel its shugry grip round about yer nekk! oh, bleeve me! please.

jumpin on the ropes, i’m there. and not there. feel that crass crushing of harps. twang the heart right out of ya. i’m so so so-ing. feebleminded and crackpated, ulp, goes that big-throated murmur. fell eyelids crouching on the scarpment. weezel and dodoizer combined. almost, saullike needing some sweet melodiary to calm the seething furnace. and where are the words when you need them to ring forth with bright song?

Anyway, Mr. Lessig’s description is far more detailed than my own and also includes links to write to your congresspeople.

hours of enforced fun…

It seems that much of the Iraqi National Library’s holdings, may not have gone up in flames after all. Incredibly good news, if true. Now, if only they could some food and clean water (not to mention electricity) over there.

Quicksilver is the newest novel by Neal Stephenson. A cursory glance at this website would seem to reveal that the book is about the ancestors of the characters in Cryptonomicon. An interesting idea, though I’m a little doubtful. You can read an excerpt of the book here.

Enjoy this Daily Show clip. If you can.

funny funny spam lords…

the humming and the whirring clicking of those teeth. and they had eyes too
frantically, or moreso, because the self-described “bum” had a great shiningJackNicholson . creepy, steeping back, leaning back. still close. watching that one red eye/one white eye peering at me. such care with the brew. can’t go to breed hungry.

i have seen the arms of god flailing in the wind, or the sun, or something invisible that escapes my notice. and then he asked me if i wanted to kill some vietnamese. i said that i wasn’t into that kind of thing. he sighed. i wouldn’t buy him pabst either. who would’ve thought our mayor was a chinese communist mole?
