dschmidt (Dan Schmidt):
How I wish we could take this moment and freeze it
To come back again and again and again
To hold it to the light turn it in our hands
To study all the angles
To find out How and Why it's gotta go the way it goes
We have the technology not available before
We have the technology
But thinkers and poets of the past oh no
They had to leap into the dark so blindly
Whereas we'll stand free and upright like men
The day's golden light?
Linked with our machines our eyes are beaming
It won't matter at all
How weird things are seeming
We need the means to dig deeper
To search below the surface appearance of things
Worlds never dreamed of!
What a wonderful life if, darling that moment
Might be found wherein we come unstuck completely:
Flap A from Slot B, slapping in the wind!
"We Have the Technology" Pere Ubu

Getting out of Texas as soon as possible.
It's official: I will be working in Omaha at the AF Global Weather
Center beginning right around Christmas.

monkey (Isaac L. Chuang):
But in sharing our fears with one another, we can uncover the source
of our consolation, and that is: ourselves. If it is the complexity
of human relationships that can cause us pain, it is also true that it
is just these relationships that teach us how to be comforted.

phoibe (belinda):
There is pleasure sure in being mad,
Which none but madmen know;
But guard ye well, your sanity
Lest along that path you go.
'Tis not a pleasure 'til you're there
'Mid chilling dark, your soul stripped bare;
Alone adfift with visions strange
The morbid world of one deranged
May be a nice place to live- now, is it?
I don't think I'd want to visit.

wesommer (William Sommerfeld):
Hi, little database...
Wanna get corrupted?
