Yah. Scrabble. Where the real money is. I'm having to dial in through a 20 cent/minute LD connection, to Dresden. I don't care. I think if I have to pay 20 cents, I think I should get to say fuck you, Teleport.

So, there.

WE could have a tv show.

EG, a mesmerizing (I promise) account of Norton's Marijuana Experience; How To Buy XICO (Whatever That Is); and Rust Of The Northwest.

At least I got some of my word and smut files edited.
So I feel - uhm - accomplished. AND angry.

And on the next Martha .....
   Martha Discovers Crossword Puzzles


Actually, I would be interested in the nitty-gritty on how
crossword puzzles are put together -- how the process
has changed with computer resources and so forth. Not
sure I would want Martha involved in explaining it to me,
though.

"No. I have power only for the dark side." It's true. I'm (literally) convinced some people are weighted. Bogged. Mudfingers.

You might be one.
Amiga.
Compadre.

There was no way I was getting my order filled this AM ~ even if the ISP had been on, Nature had a back-up in the fact that they declared my account empty. By the time I'd have straightened that out, BS was already up an eighth, and I don't chase em, so, so, you might as well sleep in, if you just knew which days, in advance.

I did get FILLED however, right when I went back to cancel my order.

The down elevator doors opened and a guy grabbed my money.

It's quasi-miraculous, is what it is. You can really tell your fingers are in the pie.

Oh well!
I'm going into professional basketball, what do I care.
Maybe learn how to weld.

BZZZT!

Do you ever wonder what you could accomplish, if you had a real job? Or even a pseudo-job? Or even thing to do?

Not much, probably.

I have a concept album in mind, a two-cd set (was about to type record) ~ side one: Blood Bath ~ side two: The Dark Side ~ Rambi's Revenge

The other night (twister night I think) I watched "God, the Devil and Bob" on the tube of infinite wisdom. Pretty funny show. Highlight: the Devil (who looks like Sting with bitty horns) hires Martha Stewart to remodel, and she kind of takes over. "I'll need to bring in my own people on this."

Gawd, there's a lot of crybaby whining going on today. Stand up straight, soldier, and deal with it!

Seems that the daily ritual massacre of genome stocks let up, and the rest of the herd got some lumps for a change. Good. The vulture gazes over the field of dead and dying genomers, to see if anything is still twitching. The end of the quarter might be time to take a small bite. But they may not be quite ripe enough yet. hmmmm.
