News You Can Bruise for 2002 August 7

As Groucho Marx did not say, "I won't belong to any struct that would have me as a member."

Muppets + Weezer = cross-promotional fun! (from Kevin)

The last of my spaceship components came in today, and are on the floor in a box. Soon I'll be shutting down this computer and performing the transplant.

The other things that came in today are my copies of the Diesel Sweeties and explodingdog comic books. I'll report on them once I read them. They remind me that I've had the Footrot Flats comic book Joe sent me for YEARS and still haven't reviewed it. That will come too.

I'm back on the net, though not all the parts are moved into the new computer. This new bizarre motherboard has its own network card and sound card, but I don't trust 'em. I'm afraid that each contains a tiny privacy-invading modem, like in The Lone Gunmen. (Oh yeah, the motherboard also has its own modem.)

OK, everything's working except sound (dunno why). My CD writer even works, which hasn't been the case for a while.
