Well, about that; I should send something to the cookout @ Greg'sin lieu
of an
excuse on the fourth, and BBQ sauce doesn't sound
called-for, entirely.

The 'Route 98 Certified' Jock Strap program had to be...pulled.

'epiphanicated' really is awful

Love that radio ad. (Heavy metal hour.)
I thought it was 'the press gets jaded' or 'Journalists produce on

What's this 'if' stuff? As if today's (6.30.98) Suck.com were not
a futher hint, it's unique at the top. Even to digest the accounting
that
makes high tech happen typically requires going outide of (AFAIK)
Excel to SAP, S3 (software name, not S3, Inc.), maybe PeopleSoft.
Nevermind selling XML and CSS2, where does one go for those?
Even if you can swallow those paradigms and yet order
a sandwich (not a sandwich firm, or a stake involving a sandwich
when you want one, or the 'tweening version' coupon pack)
the 'New Paradigms in Science' remain to be taken with a grain of
brokerage.
About this time, a small crowd gathers to see the one person who
doesn't dine-n-dash for lunch mid-week.

Good epiphany.
The Tao that gets you married may only be run on one computer at a

It will indeed be something of a miracle if (when) XML manages to remove
obscenity from the expanse of stub 'voicing,' market chatter and
chunking,
loosely affected authorships, etc. (poss. retaining all the salt we'd
miss snaking the economist site in another file.)

Once I inject the New OS Version serum, my messages won't crash
so much, maybe. Sorry 'bout that rogue privacy thread.

Now I know that the big deal with 'Apocalypse' (Bruce Willis, the
talkative
murderer from Fargo, Comet Texas, others) is someone signing:
The Underwriter of Apocalypse
I just got that winnowing/chaffing is old there, since spoof
detection is a basic requirement for that (still lo-tech (not much
digital
signing, etc. unless it's a real deal)) or those newswires...er, let's
add the
word 'million' to that keyword search, to avoid news like:
