Nothing quite this dramatic
Posted on August 20, 2002 in Weather
The actual rainfall or fog drip barely wet the sidewalks. No puddles stand in the aftermath of our August storm.
You can rest assured….

[19:56] <EmperorNorton> Great. He will probably agree that you are being especially draconian and making me jump through unnecessary hoops.
Funny. I feel more like garlic

Neat Divisions

Can we live comfortably in a world of the mind where we can’t tell the apples from the oranges?

…if you want to help a terrorist, the best thing you can do in his book is install more draconian measures.
Stand back! I’m all ready for my NEW CAREER!

I’ve picked up a secret component vital to my upcoming success in the north Hollywood film industry. From now on, I shall be known onscreen as Chad Steele. My partner for this venture is Rhonda Carerra.
Do you need a new name to launch your success in pornographic videos? Go to http://www.mypornname.com/ and pick one up. No, this isn’t one of those where you enter the name of your first pet and the street on which you were born. This is better.
I mean, really: Does “Bingo Voorhees” sound worthy of the Prozac Eunuch version of John Holme to you?
Relocation
Posted on August 17, 2002 in Site News
Relocation of notfrisco2.com has begun. If this goes well, Alsirat and notfrisco.com will follow. Those who have blogrolled me and have set up their code to mark changed logs will start being notified of changes as they happen. Also look for a transfer of my blogs (one by one) to Moveable Type. I’m already scheming to create new photo galleries for Paths of Light and a regular photo journal.
This should also end the comments problem I’ve been having with Enetation and let people get their revenge on me by calling up Trackback.
Relocation may cause some of you to miss posts until the InterNet catches up with my domain change. (24 to 72 hours from approximately 15:00 hours on Saturday, August 17 2002, Pacific Daylight Time.) Don’t worry. I will continue to regularly update and you will eventually get to see what the Net has been hiding from you.
Out of the Mailbox
Posted on August 17, 2002 in Mailbox
Once a month or so, I think I should do what I did a few weeks ago and give people a sampling of the garbage that makes it past the spam-killer filter. This is for history’s sake, so the grandchildren of the next generation can see how hard life was for us poor, techno-maddened products of the mid-twentieth century:
- Need Leads – Sales? Here’s A Solution
- CIBRES Article: Disaster Recovery Planning
- Life Insurance – Why Pay More?
- How To Get Hundreds Of Fresh Leads
- Get great prices on magazines
- Buy stocks for $4 and win miles on Alaska Airlines (But Enron isn’t worth $4!)
- r.e.: Are You Overwhelmed in Debt? (Should I send this to Lizza?)
- DON’T MISS OUT! YOUR CHANCE TO EARN $10,000+
- MasterCard or Visa – You Choose (American Express.)
- Garden Ornaments (Gnomes and Pink Flamingos!)
- A Vacation on us! (I hope you’re truly huge)
- Re: You have won!
- It only takes a few sprays a day.
- Save $240! Polaroid Digital Camera Only $39.95 TODAY!!
- Legal identification
- Viagra – Xenical – Phentermine, and more!
- The 18 Warning Signs That Tell You When To Dump A Stock. (1. Republicans steal the presidential election….)
- Hey big boy! (Is this the result of Bush opening up medical files to marketers? I’m 6’4″)
- Your date is waiting
Put the words “penis” and “breast” into your kill file and it’s amazing how much spam you eliminate.
I have no faith in the “remove me” links. Went to one today and got a “Cannot Find Server” error.

Oh dear. I’m talking like a progressive again….how dare I attack the sacred cow of the so-called free market!
Possible Lapse of Blogging
Posted on August 16, 2002 in Site News
Both my loyal readers may find me out of the internet this weekend. We’re in the process of moving notfrisco2.com from Yahoo Websites to Glowhost. If the move goes smoothly, I’ll be shifting notfrisco.com and alsirat.com, too. Then watch for the transfer of this blog from blogger.com to Moveable Type.
Keep your fingers crossed for us.

First they left messages. Then, when she called them back, their receptionist told Lynn to “just wait” for them to get around to getting back to us again: she couldn’t find the papers.
