scottobearWell, as I live, breathe and defecate...The Historical Illuminatus Series by Robert Anton Wilson is about to be reprinted. Hopefully by the time that they get around to Volume III, Mr. RAW will have finished the long-missing Volume IV. Hopefully, as I've never had a belly for reading an unfinished series.
For folks without the luck to have read these books, they are historical fiction set during the mid-1700's-early 1800's which chart the course by which the Illuminati seized control of the American and French Revolutions. They deal with all the major historical figures of the time and are Wilson's best work, bar none. Unlike much of his other writing, these books are totally and completely accessible to the newcomer and you don't have to be licking toads to 'get' them.
Random Scotto factoid - I'm gaga for cranberry juice, and the more sissified mixed cranberry drinks. Cran-apple and cran-raspberry are tasty and remind me of being a kid up north.
forecasted weather for the next week.... It's going to be wet!

I had to fix the links to the pictures in a few of my old entries today, but the doodles and photos should be working now. Hopefully they'll stay put for a year or two, this time. My host is being problematic with my cgi-bin. For some reason, the permissions keep getting locked. If I want to write to a log or a high score file, half the time it goes read-only as a "security measure". That doesn't do me much good.
Classic food from a bygone era...
Guess which part of the cow this comes from? Luckily you can rinse the whole thing down with a refreshing glass of Tomato/Orange juice. Now that's got to be tasty.
one year ago Spanish TV, broken links, new he-man cartoon, mark quits FMM before he's caught stealing, puppy pictures and palm doodles
two years ago Soylent Green Tea Ice Cream at the Frieze in Miami, after seeing Kiss of the Dragon with my bro, cavort, first exp w/ Samurai Jack, Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird
three years ago saw the hollow man movie, and played Everway.

> YOU LINKED TO HULK.Finished watching Neverwhere, and I highly recommend it. Nice collection of characters, and has the "not quite right" vibe of 80s British TV, even though it aired in the mid 90s. Classic Gaiman.

> Hulk down with that.
