My Favorite Line From Wizard of Oz

[scottobear]

"Come out... come out... where-ever you are. To meet the young la-ady who fell from a star" Glenda was such a cool witch. Seemed like she was out of it the whole time, but then again, she did ride around in a bubble.

Dave might be giving me his old Mac this weekend... which would be very cool for doing development even more cross-platform. Now, I'm thinking about what the Network name on the Hive might be. (Current Network elements are Queen (big Brain), Worker (Lappie), and Drone (Palm).) So far, Pupa was offered, and I like that... but I figure I have until it gets strapped into the network (oh boy! AppleTalk! I haven't dealt with that in about 2 years...we'll see how hard or easy it is to add it to the hive at all. I'd like to share the dsl net connection and files) . I'm excited... I had a line on a free mac before, but the bottom fell out of that deal. This machine is the last one before the IMAC candy-colored ones came out... it's beige. :)

You know, one day, I'll have a lovely library in my home, with overstuffed chairs, wireless net connections, tasty scents of sandalwood and such, high bookcases reaching to the ceiling, and plenty of well read, loved books on the shelves. Meanwhile, I'll have to be happy with boxes in my closet. Maybe this weekend I'll get some shelves, and make more of my texts simpler to access.

heh. Glenda is my mother's name. it's not a very common name here (she's named after glenda lough, a lake in ireland). she's not thrilled that a lot of people think her mother named her after the witch in a book, good witch or not ;-)

Aww.... well, for what it's worth, bubble travel is still super keen. :)

My favourite is: "What kind of a horse is that?" "Why, that's the 'orse of a different colour you've heard tell of."

And don't forget the deep, padded window-seats behind heavy drapes, so that people can curl up in there and hide while they read. :>

Right you are...and a fireplace, with deep, artificial fur rugs. :)

when I was a kid, I thought so.... I thought it would be great if she was an oz-like witch. :-) I think she just gets tired of hearing "oh, you mean like the good witch!?" all the time

Heh... better retort... "No, like the Transvestite in Ed Wood's Film."
