celine (Who Drugged Thumper?):
Not far from here, by a white sun, behind a green star, lived the
Steelypips, illustrious, industrious, and they hadn't a care: no spats
in their vats, no rules, no schools, no gloom, no evil influence of the
moon, no trouble from matter or antimatter -- for they had a machine,
a dream of a machine, with springs and gears and perfect in every
respect. And they lived with it, and on it, and under it, and inside
it, for it was all they had -- first they saved up all their atoms,
then they put them all together, and if one didn't fit, why they
chipped at it a bit, and everything was just fine ...
-- Stanislaw Lem, "Cyberiad"

cyrus (Cyrus H Shaoul):
Todays Japanese language lesson is ....
...YAKUZA speak!
Otoshimae o tsukete [ Take responsibility! ]
(After this you'll only be able to count to 9 with your fingers. )
Kane o yokose! [ Give me your money! ]
Yakuza members will frequently use TEME or OMAE for 'You'
and ORE for 'I'. ( N.B. TEME is a bad boys word. Don't
use it in public unless you want to shock people or look
like a thug. )
'Please' in Yakuza-speak is either YOKOSE or KUDE.
( KUDE as in kudesai, omit the sai. )
Vocabulary word of the day: HAJIKI - Gun.
The following phrases come in handy if you intend to operate a

rlcarr (Rich Carreiro):
Madman drummers bummers
and Indians in the summer
with a teenage diplomat
In the dumps with the mumps as
the adolescent pumps his
way into a hat
With a boulder on my shoulder,
feelin' kinda older I tripped
the merry-go-round
With this very unpleasing
sneezing and wheezing the
calliope crashed to the ground
Some all-hot half-shot was
headin' for the hot spot
snappin' his fingers
clappin' his hands,
And some fleshpot mascot was
tied into a lover's knot with a
whatnot in her hand
And now young Scott with a
slingshot finally found a
tender spot and throws his
lover in the sand
And some bloodshot forget-me-
not whispers daddy's within
earshot save the buckshot
turn up the band
And she was blinded by the light
Cut loose like a deuce another
runner in the night
Blinded by the light
She got down but she never got
tight, but she'll make it alright
Some brimstone baritone anti-
cyclone rolling stone preacher
from the east
He says, "Dethrone the dicta-
phone , hit it in his funny bone,
that's where they expect it
least."
And some new-mowm chaperone
was stqandin' in the corner
all alone watchin' the young
girls dance
And some fresh-sown moonstone
was messin' with his froozen
zone to remind him of the
feeling of romance
Yeah he was blinded by the light
Cut loose like a deuce another
runner in the night
Blinded by the light
He got down but he never got
tight, but he's gonna make it
tonight
Some silicone sister with her
manager's mister told me I
got what it takes
She said I'll turn you on sonny,
to something strong if you
play that song with the funky
break,
And go-cart Mozart was checkin'
out the weather chart to see if
it was safe to go outside
ANd little Early-Pearly came by in
her curly-wurly and asked me
if I needed a ride.
Oh, some hazard from Havard
was skunked on beer playin'
backyard bombadier
Yes and Scotland Yard was
trying hard, they sent some
dude with a calling card,
he said, Do what you like, but
don't do it here.
Well, I jumped up, turned
around, spit in the air, fell on
the ground
Asked him which was the way
back home
He said take a right at the light,
keep going' straight until night,
and then, boy, you're on
your own.
And now in Zanzibar a shootin'
star was ridin' in a side car
hummin' a lunar tune
Yes, and the avatar said blow
the bar but first remove the
cookie jar we're going teach
those boys to laugh too soon.
And some kidnapped handicap
was complainin' that he
caught the clap from some
mousetrap he bought last
night,
Well I unsnapped his skull cap
and between his ears
I saw
a gap but figured he'd be
all right
He was just blinded by the light
Cut loose like a deuce another
runner in the night
Blinded by the light
Mama always told me not to look to
into the sights of the sun
Oh but mama that's where
the fun is
"Blinded by the Light"
Bruce Springsteen
