Just got an interesting books on cassette tape catalog from
Audio Editions (800 231 4261).

Not only do they have the original 6 hour HHG (6 tapes, $34.95
#R9A867a) they also carry The Restaurant At The End of the 
Universe (4 tapes, $24.95 #B4D294u) unabridged and read by Doug 
Adams himself, and Mostly Harmless (4 tapes, $24.95 #B4D568u)
also unabridged and also read by Adams.

Enjoy, and Don't Panic  :-)

    I hate it when I lose my train of though in the middle of my


    I read sco.penpals.   At first, it was to find some girls to talk to.
( because, of course, they're more interesting )  Then after talking to a
few, I decided that I didn't want to.  They're such freaks.  You start
talking to them, and they're all over you.  I had one girl say "why do U
have you're name as a login?  did U hack it?!1 Why did U lie to me? ARGHaaa.....
thanks.  I don't think I want to talk to you anymore.

    Maybe it's just the ones that I've mailed, but I don't think I'm going
to male a bored Uni. chick ever again.  I don't like that kind of
accusationative freakyness.  It bugs me.

Brandon, number one most people here don't have real-time access. (I
do, however...)

Number two, many servers choke on numeric addresses. (Weird, isn't
it...should be the other way around!)

	Hi everyone!!!

It's been a little while since I've had much to say, and I still don't,
but I'll say it anyway.


Let's see, to start off, I have a cold, and I had my first and hardest 
exams today.  I have no clue how I did, and I don't want to know how I did.
I just hope I got a C or at least passed in Honors Literature.  Blech - 
I hate exams, and I still have 4 more to go.  Blech blech blech.

I hate weatherpeople.  This morning they said we'd have 6 inches of snow tonigh
which meant I'd have no school tomorrow, and now they're telling us there's 
a chance of flurries.  Damn.  I'm not ready for my Spanish exam.



Andrew called yesterday, which made me feel better.  Somehow he chears me
up, and I have no clue why.  



My normal account is down till 11 tonight, which means I can't get to
any of my mail, or mail anything either.  I'm so hooked on this that it's
really bugging me.



I'm too boring.  I think I'll stick to spewing only if I actually have
something to say from now on.  Gotta go now - bye!

Hi!  I introduced myself in this newsgroup a few months back, 
but I haven't had the chance to come back in ages.  I hope to be 
here on a somewhat regular basis.

My name is Chris.  I'm attending my first year of college as a 
music major.  My interests include:  Swimming, snowskiing, 
playing piano, listening to music (classic rock, some metal, some 
pop/top 40), making people laugh, etc.  I've been playing piano 
for nearly 15 years.

I placed 9th in the country in an international art's 
competition for piano a couple of years ago.

I'm blind, and I use a speech synthesizer to communicate.  It 
speaks what comes over the modem.

If anyone has any questions, please post them here and not in 
e-mail, as my answers might be interesting for others.

I have to catch up on the messages now!  Aaack!

Yeah, Telemate's nice for modem communications, but won't run nicely
in the background. I have to have my KA9Q tcp/ip software in the

radio connections.

     If you must know, it kills you AND destroys your soul, from the horror
of your sheer insignificance compared to the whole universe.  The priniciple
it's based on doesn't work.  It depends on the fact that everything in the
universe affects everything else in some way, so you can reconstruct the
entire universe from a piece of cake.  The problem is that when many
different things act upon a single object, it's impossible to tell what
different causes are responsible for the result you get.  Here's a simple
analogy: I tell you that there are several numbers and they add up to six.
You can't figure out what the numbers are from that.  The six may be the
result of a one, a three and a two, but as far as you can tell, the universe
(the number six) consists of all two's.
     Anyway, I think that people are important no matter how small they are.
