jtkohl (John T Kohl):
From the mt. Xinu 1992 "stream of consciousness" calendar:
January: "Rashid's Believe it or Mach!"
ARABIAN NIGHTS?
Bill Bolosky of Pittsbugh [sic], Pennsylvania found that when he wove a
carpet out of the multiple threads from his Mach system (all of them in
the suspended state), he and his chauffeur could actually fly home from
the office!
[picture of taxi driver and passenger on flying carpet]
WHIZ KID
Nine year old Evelyn Peabody of Darpa, California can actually solve
this complex mathematical puzzle (picture of a blackboard) .0013
milliseconds faster than a pre-Mach system!
[blackboard has:
a = 5 and b = 3
a + b = 8
a - b = 2
a x b = ab = 15
a \div b = \frac{a}{b} = \frac{5}{3} = <yet to be written by Evelyn>]
SHOCKING STATISTIC!
Every 3 seconds in the United States a Mach user tries to inherit a
child without first creating a stable environment!
[picture of woman in house surrounded by flood waters passing an infant
to a Red Cross nurse in a boat]
and the ditty-of-the-month:
"Fee, fie, FIFO, fum
I want to write a block checksum.
Be the host live or be the host dead,
I'll fill his buffers with my bread()."
