This is what the schools research down here. (trimmed from seanbaby..)

gastrobots.

In the last month scientists have been talking about a new robo-invention– Gastrobots. It’ll soon become a household word used in household sentences like, “The Gastrobots have surrounded the compound! Activate self destruct!” and “The Gastrobots… they… they got Billy Nitro! BILLY!!!”

Gastrobots are robots that run on meat. And I know what you’re thinking: “Oh Crap! I’m 94% meat!” Gastrobots can run on almost any kind of food from sugar to vegetables to of course, your laser-blasted skeleton. The inventor Stuart Wilkinson from the University of South Florida found a way to use bacteria to break food down and turn it into electricity. He said that a robot like this could “have an unlimited power supply and be able to exist on its own outdoors,” finally fulfilling man’s need to watch immortal robots gallop through America’s proud pastures. Thanks, science.

New Scientist magazine says one of the first applications for Gastrobot technology might be a lawnmower that runs on grass clippings. Good idea. Give a robot a taste for human flesh, then attach a whirling blade to it. Maybe we could have it fire electrified throwing stars, or lease them out as babysitters when they don’t have to mow lawns, Idiot Scientist magazine.

I might be overreacting. At worse, an out-of-control lawnmower will cost us a few hundred thousand suburban feet. Those bourgeois jerks can afford prosthetic feet. And thanks to New Scientist magazine, they can probably get prosthetic feet that run on the owner’s ankle meat. Problem solved.

Hoodyhoo! Rock on, Brad…

These are some highlights from LJ news:

“When we have the new database server, we’re going to convert cartman into the photo album server, giving paid users space to upload pictures and have automatic thumbnail galleries and everything… giving titles pictures, descriptions, etc… along with optional integration with other LiveJournal features”

Chat Rooms
now I realize we need something “better”… probably a pretty Java interface to an IRC server running on LiveJournal that uses LJ usernames and passwords for authentication. Recommendations on extensible IRC servers?

last but certainly not least, to me (should I desire to dev!)

We’re releasing all of the LJ source code to the public. Beauty.

Little Known TMBG – Concrete & Clay, (for Ornj)

You, to me
Are sweet as roses in the morning
You, to me
Are soft as summer in that dawning love we share
That something rare

The sidewalks and the street
The concrete and the clay beneath my feet
Begin to crumble
But love will never die
You know we’ll see the mountains crumble
Before we say goodbye
My love and I will be
In love eternally
That’s the way
That’s the way love was meant to be

All around
I see the purple shades of evening
On the ground
The shadow’s fallen, once again you’re in my arms
So tenderly

The sidewalks and the street
The concrete and the clay beneath my feet
Begin to crumble
But love will never die
You know we’ll see the mountains crumble
Before we say goodbye
My love and I will be
In love eternally
That’s the way
That’s the way love was meant to be

The sidewalks and the street
The concrete and the clay beneath my feet
Begin to crumble
But love will never die
You know we’ll see the mountains crumble
Before we say goodbye
My love and I will be
In love eternally
That’s the way
That’s the way love was meant to be

That’s the way
That’s the way love was meant to be

I think I would like to play aok this weekend.

TMBJ interlude…


When the ship runs out of ocean
And the vessel runs aground
Land’s where we know the boat is found
Now there’s nothing unexpected
About the water giving out
“Land’s” not a word we have to shout.

But there’s something beside the shoreline
Moving across the beachhead
Coming up from the shipwreck
Making as if to say:

Women & Men
Women & Men
Women & Men
Women & Men

(Women & Men) Bringing with them messages of love
And every where they go love will grow (love will grow)
(Women & Men) When you see the faces of the women
And the men, you too will know (you will know)

Women & Men have crossed the ocean
They now begin to pour
Out from the boat and up the shore
Two by two they enter the jungle
And soon they number more
Three by three as well as four by four
Soon the stream of people gets wider
Then it becomes a river
River becomes an ocean
Carrying ships that bear

Women & Men
Women & Men
Women & Men
Women & Men

I love old comic books.
