ckclark (Calvin Clark):
So, oft it chances in particular men,
That, for some vicious mole of nature in them,
As, in their birth,- wherein they are not guilty,
Since nature cannot choose his origin,-
By the o'ergrowth of some complexion,
Oft breaking down the pales and forts of reason;
Or by some habit, that too much o'er-leavens
The form of plausive manners;- that these men,-
Carrying, I say, the stamp of one defect,
Being nature's livery, or fortune's star,-
Their virtues else- be they as pure as grace,
As infinite as man may undergo-
Shall in the general censure take corruption
From that particular fault: the dram of evil
Doth all the noble substance of a doubt
To his own scandal.
-Hamlet, I.iv.23-38

"O fortuna Sors immanis
Velut luna Et inanis
Statu variabilis Rota tu volubilis
Semper crescis Status malus
Aut decrescis Vana salus
Vita detestabilis Semper dissolubilis
Nunc obdurat Obumbrata
Et tunc curat Et velata
Ludo mentis aciem Michi quoque niteris
Egestatem Nunc per ludum
Potestatem Dorsum nudum
Dissolvit ut glaciem. Fero tui sceleris.
Sors salutis
Et virtutis
Michi nunc contraria
from "Carmina Burana" ("O Fortuna")
by Orff

therese (Therese):
We were friends who rode the waves
The time we spent in our younger days
Was all in fun,.. oh the good times that we had.
We were young and it was fine
To feel your spirit as it climbed
There're no regrets
Only good times
We were friends in younger days
Although we went our separate ways
You were my friend, you never turned away
Who can say what life will do
Life is kind to just a few
There're no regrets
Only good times
In time we will grow, we will change
As free as the wind and the waves
Live your life the way you choose
Find the ones who'll laugh with you
Like the sea
will find its way to shore
As the sun sinks from the sky,
Live your life and you will find
There're no regrets
Only good times ....
- Keola and Kapono Beamer

Ego thelo na fau to muni tis oreas copellas,

2. Who, in the Bible, is Cain's wife?
(or, so why is incest wrong? or, could Adam and Eve not be our first
parents?)

What's the difference between a carp and a lawyer?
One is a low-lying, scum-sucking creature; the other is a fish.

Our Program who art in Memory
Hello be thy Name.
Thy Operating System come.
Thy Commands be done at the Printer as it is on the Screen.
Give us this day our daily Data,
And forgive us our I/O errors
As we forgive those whose logic circuits are faulty.
Lead us not into frustration, and deliver us from Power Surges.
For Thine is the Algorithm,
The Application,
And the Solution
Looping forever and ever.
Return.
