------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just a song at twilight,
When the lights are low,
Out to rob a hen's nest
Softly I did go.
Then I caught a pullet--
Made the rooster crow,
And an old man shaved me
With a rusty hoe.

Then he called for his doggie and he
Fired a rusty gun.
And the louder he did shout
The faster I did run.
Down in the cornfield-- that's where I was found
Lying on the cold, cold ground.

He locked me in the stable with the sheep
And left a dog
That would not sleep.
By and by, that dog grew tired of watching;
By and by, that dog lay down to rest.
By and by, I jumped out of the window
And into a hornet's nest.

Bees on my fingers and bees on my toes,
And when they got through with me, they lit on Fido's nose.
He chased me round the old red barn.
I hid behind an old oak tree.
I thought he wouldn't find me there...

But I heard his pants as he advanced
And I'd left mine behind me.

Alcohol, LSD and hangliders are tools.  So is an automobile, a campfire,
and a phillip's head screwdriver.  Whenever a human engages in any activity,
or undergoes any experience, he or she travels from point A in space-time 
to arrive at point B in space-time a changed person.  It sometimes happens 
that point B is colocated with a state of death.

Any one of you could slip in your bathtub tomorrow and drown in seven inches
of water.  Or you might get squeaky clean.

God I'm getting horny just thinking about it.  Please call me and let me

The creamy spam-jelly folds of her cerebral cortex quivered in
delight.  "This is what we've been waiting for!", she enthused.
Sqaz had been a bit reluctant, but she talked him into it.
And now, here they were, strapped like lunatics on what they
were told was "...undoubtedly the finest shared electrocution
equipment in the civilized world."  "Why is it that the women
I'm attracted to always have this thing about death pacts?" he
wondered.  At least the others had been instantaneous.  Carla
had done the Half-Dome leap with him.  That was fun.  Snikka
wanted to do a love-pyre, but he talked her into a moonslam
instead.  "Wonder if our crater plaque is still up there?" he
mused.  The slo-mo of their impact had been so good, the
company paid them a couple kilocredits to use it promotionally.  
But this electrocution thing seemed kind of morbid.  But then again, 
Natsee was a devout Necrotian.  He knew about that even before 
they met, but for some reason, it only drew him toward her.  
"You sure you two don't want no blanking?", asked 'Jolt', their 
appointed executioner.  "I ain't nevah seen nobody take the full 
punch befoah."  "I'm a necrotian.  We must experience the real death." 
replied Natsee.  Sqaz felt a half-stiffy coming on and was tempted 
to ask whether they could do the dance while they fried, but he 
immediately sensed Natsee would never go along with it. 
"You all set?", asked 'Jolt'.  Natsee began the rhythmic chant of 
the Necrotian Death-Bond.  Sqaz nodded at 'Jolt'.  He felt a small 
tingle in his arms and legs.  Must be induced leakage current.  
Or maybe Natsee had secretly arranged a slow voltage-ramp toasting 
despite his insistance on the 'Reddy Kilowatt insta-fry special'.  
"Aw shit!" He felt the tingle grow into a regular pulsing spasm of 
his muscles, and he knew that she had chosen the ramped, pulsed DC option.  
That explained all the heavy-duty strapping.  He could feel Natsee 
start to convulse on top of him.  The spasms started to hurt.  
Why in the hell had he gone along with this?  He tried to yell 'stop!', 
but it came out 'splaahhahhhaahh!!'.  He could no longer breathe.  
The pain was now intolerable.  "Yo up ta 200 volts folks!"  He barely 
understood and realized they had another 1800 volts to go.  His last 
impression was a childhood image of a moth he saw caught in his 
Grampa's antique bug-zapper.

My roomate got hit by a car last week.  He was riding his bike 
down a long downhill and a cyclist-blind idiot turned in front 
of him.  Luckily, he wasn't seriously injured and only received 
a nasty case of roadrash on his arms and hips. 
Last night, he woke up to a severe pain in his right arm. The 
wound had been healing quite well lately, so he assumed that 
he had rolled over on it and torn the rather massive scab. He 
turned on the light and was disturbed to discover a large trail 
of ants leading from the floor up to his arm.

No, I'm not making this up.

Paying attention to what?  Those of us not in the clique aren't privy to such
information.  All I had to go on was CJ's own comments about smoking "far too

Are you sure this was an irrational fear?  How do you know that something
wasn't actually about to munch on the hand.

Here's a way to tell for sure: put your hand back in the hole for a half an
hour or so.  If you aren't munched on, then either the something went away
or your fear was irrational (or maybe this time it forgot to bring the
hollendaise sauce, and it was too much of a yuppie something to munch without
it).

If anybody asks you what you're doing, just tell them the truth.  I'm sure
that they'll admire you for your bravery, and call some nice men in white
coats to come and protect your arms by putting you in a special jacket ...

Was this pretty much what you expected?

I can't make up my mind which one I like better.  Though the latter reminds
me too much of Tod Spengo (Tod = Pleasure).
