amberle (Amberle S Ferrian):

...They are one person,
   They are too lonely,
   They are free together,
   They are for each other...

ccount (Craig A Counterman):



================ Tao Te Ching of the Day ================
Chapter 8:

The best is like water.
Water is good; it benefits all things and does not compete with them.
It dwells in lowly places that all disdain.
This is why it is so near to Tao.

In dwelling, be close to the land.
In meditation, go deep in the heart.
In dealing with others, be gentle and kind.
In speech, be true.
In ruling, be just.
In business, be competent.
In action, watch the timing.

It is because the best man does not compete that he is without
reproach. 

================ Koan of the day ================

Wakman complained when he saw a picture of bearded Bodhidharma, "Why
hasn't that fellow a beard?"

From: JON@GAFFER.RAD.WASHINGTON.EDU   (Jon Jacky)
Subject: Microsoft, IBM demonstrating faults in each other's products

This excerpt appeared in a long article about the rift between Microsoft and
IBM in the business section of the NEW YORK TIMES, Sunday August 4, 1991, pages
1 and 6 (section 3).  The article is "One Day, Junior Got Too Big" by Andrew
Pollack:

"... Mr. (William) Gates said he is angry about a demonstration by I.B.M. a few
months ago in which it showed how easy it was to make (Microsoft's software
product) Windows "crash" or stall.  Microsoft responded last month by showing
securities analysts how easy it was to crash (I.B.M.'s software product) OS/2
as well. ..."

- Jon Jacky, University of Washington, Seattle

        [People who fliv in crass grouses shouldn't foe knowns.
        The crashability of both are well known to most enlightened people.

             Into the crash can you go.  
             Do YOU do Windows?  
             You might WIN DEC'S disapproval.
             Or else, let the SUN shine in.  
             But don't put all your X in one window.

I LOVE THE NIGHT LIFE...

In SJ Games' Undead, being up one hour after dark (or sunup, as the
case may be) constitutes an "all-nighter."
