celine (Robert Fullmer):
Back at Rice.
Stucco ceiling and a 12th story view of the city
He watched the rain splatter through the open view
She had left through the door, he through the window
the whispering dream of moths
fluttering hazily in the
dying light
out in the plains the
wind blows freely, masterless
i dream of this place sometimes
birds of paradise

OK, so this is what you've been waiting for. I just got authorization
from OR&A to post this. One brief announcement, then we'll go back to
posting obscure Perl code.
The Book is officially at the printers, so it's a happenin' thing.
The Book will debut at OR&A's Uniforum booth in Dallas in a few weeks.
Larry and I will *both* be there to throw our scribbles on them. But
the big thing at Uniforum is the _Signing Party_!
The Signing Party (with food'n'stuff) will be at the Grand K Hotel in
Dallas on Jan 22nd from 5:30pm to 7:30pm in an "unspecified large
room" (follow the gazillions of signs). Larry and I are planning some
surprises, so if you can be there, be there.
Larry is also planning to attend Tom's Perl talk at Usenix.
If you *can't* make Uniforum, here's how to get a book direct from OR&A:
Mail it to: 632 Petaluma Avenue, Sebastopol, CA 95472
Phone it to: 1-800-338-6887
CA: 1-800-533-6887
local/international: +1 707 829 0515
FAX it to: +1 707 829-0104
Ask for Programming Perl, by Larry Wall and Randal L. Schwartz. Cover
price is $24.95.
It should also be showing up in bookstores everywhere. Sorry, my info
doesn't have an ISBN for it.
If you ordered a book, and want it autographed by me (silly thought),
send it to:
Stonehenge Consulting Services
attn: Randal
4470 SW Hall Blvd, Suite 107
Beaverton, OR 97005
UPS or FEDEX is OK. Plain mail will get there too. :-) If you're
kind, please include a few dollars for the return shipment. If not,
you'll get it back anyway (but I'll grumble a bit :-).

jcbourne (Juliet C Bourne):
Good to back home again, although i did enjoy my vacation... Got some
new music and, of course, i have some favorite songs already. Here's
one of the shorter ones:
Soul Free
---------
Listen Without Prejudice
George Michael
Higher, higher / Won't you come with me / Baby gonna get my soul free
Now you and me / I guess we see things differently
We're night and day / A bad connection some would say
And I don't want nothing to change / I don't want nothing to change
Because / When you touch me baby / I don't have no choice
Oh that sweet temptation / In your voice...
Higher, higher / Won't you come with me / Baby gonna get my soul free
Now seems to me / Some things have just got to be
The games we play / Break up make-up day by day
And I don't want nothing to change / Said I don't want nothing to change
Because / When you touch me baby / I don't have no choice
Oh that sweet temptation / In your voice
Higher, higher / Won't you come with me / Baby gonna get my soul free
