Does Stephen Fry narrate? I love his voice. And him.

![]() Almost done with the mini-series. Which is a total bummer, since it's such a wonderful combination of so many of my favorite film characters. Freddy, Jason, Ash, Tommy Jarvis, Deadites, the telekinetic girl from Friday the 13th part 7!!!, etc. EDIT: Just finished the series. That was outstanding. What a terrifically written horror epic. |

just started
![]() from the cover it looks like a protofascist book, but no, it chronicles in detail how the pilgrims were fucking up blacks & indians in their pursuit of happiness (i.e., greed). nice book, very readable so far. |

![]() http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_Barry_in_Cyberspace The cover really says it all. Ah, the nostalgia, inanity and, surprisingly enough, lots of bits that still ring true. |

'...there was another kind of computer developing, in a parallel universe. This was the Apple, and it operated on an entirely different concept, which was: A regular human could use it. ... ...even a child could understand this. For many years, while we MS-DOS were typing insanely obscure instructions like: dir c:\abcproj\docs\lttrs\sales\apr\*.* ...the Apple people were simply aiming their little mouse pointers at little pictures and going "click." ...We don't want some wussy "user-friendly" computer: We want a challenge. That's why, to this very day, Apple is not considered by us cyberwonks to be a truly serious computer. It is viewed as a computer that is popular mainly with your flaky or artsy-fartsy type of individual--your artist, your poet, your beatnik, your flower-arranger, your heroin addict. We serious users pride ourselves on wrestling with openly hostile computers that are running an operating system from the proud, incomprehensible Microsoft tradition.' |
