That long weekend was kinda hellish. If hell was really really dull and boring.
I’m not sure how weekends are different from any other day to me. I do the same thing on weekends that I do on weekdays. I read tarot, write, try to make some dosh.
I think the difference could be Don’s continued presence. There’s something inhibiting and dampening about him. He’s like the proverbial wet blanket. Ah who cares - its not even interesting enough to analyse.
Okay, so Bas’ new song really does sound kind of LPD-esque. And he also sings on it - and he has a sexy singing voice too. So check it out on his website.
My mother enjoys the feeling of Vick’s vapor rub on her anus. Now, there’s no reason in the world why I should know this. Hell, I’m not sure there’s any reason in the world why SHE should know this, but old people tend to tell you things they would never say when they’re young. Her words, “Its like a cool breeze blowing down there”.
Look, lady, don’t tell me about cool winds around your butt, okay? Just go eat a Yorke Peppermint Patty and leave me alone. “Ahhhh… its like the brisk sensation of an icy Hyperborean zephyr blowing around Uranus”.
Then again, I’m the one who’s been self-administering electro-shock therapy lately. Maybe I could use a Yorke Peppermint Patty as well, “Its like the gentle tingle of an electric current flowing over my nip… uh…. shoulder”.
My O is sticking. I’m speaking of my key-board, and not the big O, nor the story of O.
Okay, so according to Noumenal News, and other sources, a limbless lizard has been discovered in India. Now I don’t mean to nit-pick but, wouldn’t this be a snake? Reptile + no legs = snake. I mean… just LOOK at the thing. Snake.
Who exactly were these ‘discoverers.’
“Look, Gary! A legless lizard!”
“Um, Randy…. I think its a snake.”
“No no! Its a whole new species - a lizard… with no limbs!”
“You mean a snake?”
So how does evolution explain this one. “This lizard evolved… to have no limbs”.
I don’t know - sounds like a step backward to me. Then again, certain humans are likely to evolve into limblessness. Homo couch-potatus.
And what about the creationists? Whats their story for this one? “When god cursed the snakes to crawl upon their bellies, this lizard must have gotten caught in the crossfire”.
Or maybe he was the lizard who tempted the serpent to tempt eve. “Go on, Serpent, go flirt with that chick. She’s naked. She’s askin’ fer it. Go on… I dare ya…. I hear she likes apples…”
Bad lizard.
I love the fact that the article says, “The … lizard looks like a scaly, small snake”. Oh really? Gee - wonder why?
“But modern limbless lizards are not snakes, Dutta said”. Sure, no… of course not. Wouldn’t be much of a discovery then, would they?
The tarot-game activists have struck again. So this is their idea of ‘blitzing the net”. The Conservative Voice? Yeah, you’re going to reach a lot of tarot users that way. Well I thought of writing another response but frankly, this doesn’t warrant one. I’ve said all I have to say on the matter, over on Noumenal Net.
Here’s a nifty little waste of time, for those of you who need one:

Older people do tend to say things that are, at times, rather surprising and often TMI. Never considered lubin’ up me bunghole with Vick’s Vaporub, but I suppose that’s just a lack of creativity on my part. Maybe it’s good if you’ve had too many jalapenos?
That ‘legless lizard’ story is bizarre. I mean, really, who has verified that this is a legless lizard? Reminds me of that Black Adder episode where Nursie is telling the Queen about when she was born:
Nursie:
“You almost were a boy, my little cherry pip..”
Queenie:
“What?”
Nursie:
“Yeah, out you popped out of you mummy’s tumkin and everyone shouted, ‘It’s a boy! It’s a boy!’, then somebody said, ‘but he doesn’t have a winkle.’ Then, I said, ‘A boy without a winkle? God be praised it’s a miracle: a boy without a winkle!’ And then, Sir Thomas Moore pointed out that a boy without a winkle is a girl. And everyone was really disappointed..”
Queenie:
“Shut up, Nursie.”
You have a name less common than mine, Che! According to that website, there are 13 people in the US with my same name. Coincidentally, 13 is my lucky number.
Actually, there are 0 other people in the US with the name Che, but when I use the non-diminutive of my name, I get 12.
And the funny thing about that tarot article is that 1) They’re complaining about the ads google serves them (I think we all have that problem sometime), but if they don’t like it - they can just block the fucking ads. And b) Their article was being served with fortunetelling ads
Hahahaha. That’s great. So annoying, these idiots.
Ha, so now we’ll see if the login worked…
Well, the login itself seemed to work, but I am colorless. I suppose I select a color myself? Scary!
No, please don’t select a color yourself. (Not that you could - you don’t have access to my css file). But please… don’t try. Now that you’ve logged in I can test a few things to get you color-worthy.
No problem. Sounds good.
I want a color! I like purple.
Log me in! Sign me up! Colors are pretty!
Okay, R the P, lemme get the comment colors WORKING, then I’ll sign you up and you can be purple.
Wow, decisive about his colors, no?
I’m decisive because colors are pretty.
Except orange. It ain’t so great.
I love orange.
In spite of your love, it still ain’t so great
Hey, I like orange too! RtP is an orange hater!
Popping out for a while. BBL…
How could anyone dislike orange? So bright? So cheerful? So citrussy?
Colors! Logins! He, he.. Sounds great! Kind of official.
SP red to SP blue.. 10-4.
Ohhh… Just hit me.. I once made a battery by using Vick’s VaporRub.
Which made me think of your mother.. and a lightbulb.
Tail light.
For some reason, a blue stripe has decided to appear just above Mojo’s name. GAH! Lets see if I can get this to work.
BAS! I didn’t see that comment before posting - you nearly made me shoot tea out of my nose!
Okay, now the blue stripe is below Mojo’s name. GAH!
Hooray! Now Mojo is blue! But I don’t like that shade of blue. It clashes with my orange, which is too bright anyway.
Maybe I’ll make Mojo purple just to piss R the P off… hehe….
Actually, I’m not sure how I’m going to work this for the rest of you. You may all have to share a color - we’ll see.
Color sharing. So new age sounding.
“did the two of you get along?”
“No. Unfortunately, he wasn’t into color sharing. At least not my color.”
And Bas, that tail light was hilarious. Wonder if it would work?
By the way, there are 387 of me in the US.
Yay- blue! Thanks, Che.
Yeah, but now it looks like you and I have all the IMPORTANT stuff to say, and everyone else… not so much. So I suppose I’ll make everyone blue (or the same color, whatever color y’all want to be) and that way, the SPians will look important, while strangers who wander in off the street will just look… blah. So basically we’ll have one color for the admin (me), one color for SPians, and no color for strangers.
sounds good…
but probably not tonight…
Well it was getting to be a pain trying to get everyone a color - even the same color. I have a few more ideas about coding it, but it’ll have to wait until tomorrow.
Funnily enough, Mojo was blue/sage on his computer, but when I look at it on this computer, he has no color.
Thats because I removed his color last night. Today, everyone is blue/sage (sage? Where the hell do you get sage?) except me, but I may do something a little fancier with comments, haven’t decided. As long as I can keep the page fast-loading.
It was sage on Mojo’s computer. Just like on my computer there is a box around the comments, but it is completely white (or colorless since the outside of the box and the inside of the box is the same.)
I also think that one reason we may be getting low number of people visiting is that the counters may be off. I still get only 1 view for “In defense of the color orange,” but I know I have viewed it at least twice.
But hey, this glitches are bound to happen when one is engaged on a quest for a perfect SP! I’m enjoying new things you are doing with the design every single day.
The box is fine with me. Makes it easy to see which is all I really care about. Colors are nice, but not strictly necessary.
Quiet! You!
I’m working on putting background images into the box, kay?
And I don’t want to hear the ‘not strictly necessary’, after you and everyone else went coveting my colors and wanting them for yourselves. Now after I work all night trying to make prettinesses for the site, you come back with ‘not strictly necessary’.
GAH!
Colors are necesary for the site. How else can we make color blind people feel like they are missing out, especially that extremely common orange-sage colorblindness.
Screw it - you’ll all be blue and love it.
Yay! It is blue!
And on an unrelated note, the navigation link to Neumenal news is broken. It takes you to a pared down version of Noumenal.net with a huge 404 Can’t be found on the top of the page.
Unless that is simply an appropriate article for Noumenal News. “Ghost link takes interested away from Paranormal News! Redirects them to Limahl and Teri Garr!”
Blue, blue, electric blue
That’s the colour of my room
Where I will live
Blue, blue
Bowie had a profetic song there!
Turn and face the strange
Ch- Ch- Changes
Just gonna have to be a different man
Time may change my
But I can’t trace time
