Hey, that's a real BAD PUN! I wish I'd thought of that!
OK, well, there's not much to say about this thing, except there's this new Web- loggy magazine thing that is all about the GNU project.
It's by a guy named "Georg," which is a cool name. It sounds like a James Bond villain name. Like a guy with a real big head who tries to kill James Bond. It's too bad that Georg didn't get the domain name ge.org, because that would be cool. But another German guy got that, so I guess it's all right.
If I had the ge.org domain, and my name was Georg, I would probably let anyone else named Georg have an account there, so like if their name was "Georg Busey" or something, they could have the url http://ge.org/busey/ as their home page. Sorta like in solidarity with other guys named Georg. The same would work for, like, ja.net or johnn.ie or something.
Oh! But "Brave GNU World" is what I was talking about. It's a good site. It's got lots of GNU info. Like, the new GCC-based Java compiler is covered. Which is cool. AND there's other stuff. Go look now.

My dear and close friend, Porn Maven Shannon Mariemont, sent me a titillating message the other day about her new project: the PornOrchestra. Her desire, at most, is to reinvent the porn soundtrack and, at least, to receive a cease-and-desist order like all her cool friends did last year. (More...)
A Treatise Prepared for the Gallup Organization on the Symbolism of the Scarab
Well dahlings, the response to my new tarot column has been quite overwhelming. I got three whole pieces of mail requesting my arcane insight. One asked why blogs suck so much, and one was a completely incomprehensible tale of bears shitting random numbers in the woods — I am fairly certain it was a cryptographic allegory. Howsomever, only ONE of the inquiries was accompanied by a crisp ten-dollar bill, and so it's the Gallup Organization that will this week reap the benefit of my wicked pack of cards. (More...)

This was an old standby back in my poor college days. Back then the goal was to get butt fucking wasted for as little money as possible. The problem was we hated dirt cheap beer - and some weekends, even Henry's was far more lucre then we could scratch together. So we invented Red. (More...)
