>In a dramatic twist to the "big-endian/little-endian" controversy raging
>on the European networks, the British Prime Minister Thatcher Margaret
>today announced that she is standing down as leader of the Conservative
>Party and government. After weathering many storms in which She Stood Alone
>against the European hordes on Exchange Rate Mechanism, European Monetary
>Union, European Political Union and German Reunification, the final straw
>was the insistence that the UK maintain its network addressing structure
>exactly the opposite way around from everyone else. Speaking from no 10,
>Downing Street (known within the UK of course as "Street Downing, 10"),
>she announced that she would quit rather than adopt the Internet standard.
>
>"We have our traditions and our standards", she said, "and though they are
>at variance with everyone else, I believe that it is the rest of the world
>that has got it wrong".
>
>Heseltine Michael, the man who put himself forward for the leadership would
>not confirm whether he would reverse the domain ordering if he were to
>succeed the Prime Minister, but it is well known that the decisive factor
>in his decision to stand was the many letters he received from domainless
>sources in Austria, urging him to "reverse the anti-European trend at the
>top".

>The JNT, who devised the UK addressing standard (Advanced Retroactive

fallas:
'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And all my fears relieved.
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now I'm found!
Was blind, but now I see!
A mighty fortress is our God!
A comfort never failing!
It only takes a spark
To get a fire going.
And soon all those around
Can warm up to its glowing.
That's how it is with God's love:
Once you've experienced it,
You spread His love to everyone.
You want to pass it on.
What a wondrous time is spring,
When all the leaves are budding.
The birds begin to sing,
The flowers start their blooming.
That's how it is with God's love:
Once you've experienced it,
You want to sing--it's fresh like spring.
You want to pass it on.
I wish for you, my friend,
This happiness that I've found.
You can depend on Him;
It matters not where you're bound.
I'll shout it from the mountaintop: PRAISE GOD!!!
I want my world to know
The Lord of love has come to me.
I want to pass it on.

jcbourne (Juliet C Bourne):
Here we go... something for those of us who are unattached, but who have
certain... uh... desires. Y'know, the only exciting things in my life
these days seem to happen...
IN MY DREAMS
------------
Love Life
Berlin
I see you every night, I pull your strings
You dance for me, you laugh
I make you sing
I want complete control
And I say when
Let's try again...
I see you every day, you walk on by
I try to speak but then I wonder why
I have you every night all to myself
Never alone
Asleep, you're gone...
I wrote a line or two, tried to explain
In your morality it's not the same
I want you on your knees
I want you down
Never a sound...
Chorus
------
You could be it, yes
You could be the one I love
You could be the sexy thing I'm dreaming of
You could spend the night with me
And never know you were here
In my dreams
You could be it, yes
You could be my slow romance
You could be a master in my lovers' dance
You could scream aloud
And there's no one to hear but me
In my dreams
(It could matter to me, it could matter to me)
In my dreams
I see every night, I pull your strings
You dance for me, you laugh
I make you scream
I want complete control, I say when
Let's try again...
Let's try let's try let's try again
Chorus x 2

therese (Suntioinen Therese M.):
All the still point of destruction
At the centre of the fury
All the angels all the devils
All around us can't you see
There is a deeper wave than this
Rising in the land
There is a deeper wave than this
Nothing will withstand...
