Yeah, but not INSTANTANEOUS energy conversion, not even close.  It'll
take them ten years to use the 3.3 terawatt-hours.  (It's a ten-year
contract; by promising to buy all their power from BosEd for the decade,
BosEd promises not to increase the rate.)

Not to be picky or anything, but...I mean, who am I to blow against

It isn't German at all, but French (cant yo tell frrrom my outrrrageos

Ketil"  In German, I suppose it would be something like "Der (Das) Tot des
Magnus und Ketil".  I never could get the prepositions right.

	I once dreamed that I was a foil packet of ketchup. A fourteen
year old punk threw me on a sidewalk and stomped on me, evidently just
interested in spraying a couple of freeze-dried yuppies with ketchup, and 
not at all interested in what he was doing to a self-aware condiment.
	Anyway, as I was squashed, I became aware that the foil packet
was in fact a prison cell I had been condemned to, and I was in fact the
ketchup inside. The kid burst my prison walls, and freed me - I - the 
ketchup - was free. 
	Unfortunately, my consiousness fragmented into a thousand small 
droplets as the packet burst, and I ceased to exist as an individual
entity.
	And I woke up splattered across the walls of my bedroom.

OK, here's my Pet Peeve of the Week.  What we normally call "Fonts" are
really Typefaces.  A Font is a Typeface of all one size, while a Typeface
is, well, a typeface.  (ie, "Chicago 8pts" IS a font, but "Chicago", Kibo's
favorite typeface, is NOT a font, it's a typeface.)

We can see from the above the phrase "Font size" is redundant.

Also, for the Ugliest Typeface of the Month, check out the Newsweek
Election Special.  The sub-headline font is a REAL UGLY red typewriter
thing.  While I've seen "typewriter" typefaces that look pretty good,
this one DELIBERATELY looks as if it were made with a worn out ribbon
and dirty keys.  Yuck.

You should shake them anyway, though, just in case you have a
container of Singing Spam.  They're worth thousands of dollars,
although they have been mostly taken out of circulation by hoarders.
Still it's probably worth your time to check.  You must check
manually, though; Spam needs the warmth of human touch if it's going
to break out into the Chorus of the Spheres.  It's kind of perverted,
really, the way Spam cares more about people than it does about other
cans of Spam.

I used to own a can of Singing Spam.  I didn't know until it broke
into this horrible keening just as I was about to stuff it in the
trash compactor.  (Compacting Spam may sadistic, but it's the most fun
I've ever had, and it's legal.)  I sold that sucker immediately; I
never knew that the Astral Chorus was such screechy, dissonant stuff.

Listening to that thing sing was the best proof I've ever found that
God is evil.

Okay, everyone--- I have a bit of explaining to do. Biff's newsfeed went
down last week, and out of the kindness of my heart I've been letting him
borrow my account for a while. Yes, that DOES explain why part 2 of
Paradigm of Fish wasn't quite up to par... I didn't write it. Biff did.

Anyway. I'll try to keep him from posting anymore from my account, 
so until then I GUESS I"LL BE SEEING YOU DUDEZ L8TR!!! ! BYE!!!!! 11!111

They haven't stopped. They're pouring hundreds of thousands of them
per year into the newly free countries of Eastern Europe. I'll leave it
up to the reader to decide whether this is a good or a bad thing... :-)

Speaking of C-64's, there was a list I saw on The Net a while ago that had
about 55 reasons why the 64 was better than a PClone. Anyone have this?
I recall that Reason #1 was: "PClones cost over a thousand dollars, while
the Commodore 64 is free -- you probably already have one in your attic!"

-- Mark, who still fires up his old C128 once in a while to play
   Impossible Mission, and his VIC-20 to play Radar Rat Race...

 "But Dr. Radium, was that necessary?" "Rez, _everything_ I do is necessary."
