I still am not sure it is real. And translations always are problematic. But "The Book of Disquiet" is a must read. Even more if you've been to Portugal. But even if not. A very odd thing. Points of view. Way it was arranged. Tag markers often for rereading and pondering. Read slowly, on this one. And put away and go back to it.


"Book of Disquiet" Fernando Pessoa

Intriguing.

02) NINE STORIES by J.D. Salinger

COLOR OF SPACE (2019)

The best screen adaption of H. P. Lovecraft's material. Ever.

The ones disagreeing are the ones who haven't read HPL's stories and glibbly claim "the Dunwich Horror - 1970, is better."

Amateurs.

I am going to propagate this particular species and always have that much needed emergency gift/response at the ready.

Now to find the proper ceramic presentation planter pots.

Something sophisticated. Eclectic.

This isn't some lowbrow Chia Pet.

Perhaps H.P. Lovecraft's bold head or have it sprout from between the winged shoulders of a miniature Nike of Samothrace sculpture.

Don't ever say I didn't give you something magnificent.

(If you're lucky enough to receive one.)

P.S.

I called VooDoo tech support.

Their answer, I quote:

"You shouldn't be playing pirated property. So just don't play that game. No more overheating. Problem solved."

Fucking squid heads.

There was a great discussion of $800 video cards.

Dear Spec Sheet:

My VooDoo 5 graphics card is overheating, but only when I'm playing a pirated German version of H.R. Giger's Dark Seed 3 in 3D. Should I upgrade to a liquid-cooled system? Help. Thnx.

DOS lives matter.

Peace & Destruction,
Cam

Noory is still pushing his planned event in Sept.
No chance that will happen, it will be cancelled just like his previous ones were...

But...but those tickets have been "going fast" for months now! Say it isn't so! We MUST be allowed to gather and dance in the aisles to the oldies! Damn it!

Ha!

First off- good to see you around. I was concerned that Corona-Chan had taken you out. Scientists are now saying that it can cause neurological complications- and I assume that means it enters through overly-clean ear canals. 

Now I have to find some place to find some place that sells "Nazi babies." I know of at least two people left who would see the humour in receiving a small bag with a nicely printed tag stating the contents.

Greetings & Salutations, WOTR.

Thus far, the ear canals have not been compromised by the virus.

I'm greatly heartened that I see several familiar handles when I do my "walk throughs". Occultniks might liken it to a wandering spirit performing a "walk in/possession." But I digress.

A great joy to see you, MD, Jack, ITsO, Roswells, et al, who remember me.

I'm like Switzerland.  I treasure all these contacts no matter the dynamics between said contacts.

I do, however, hold severe misgivings for this Liberace character.

He may be a disinformation packet specialist spy, constantly dispersing social engineering waves.

Stay alert.

It's about time you strolled in. Where are those galley proofs you sent me? Oh, right, that hasn't happened for you yet. Well, anyway, nice to have been seeing you again since the next time, Cap'n.

Galley proofs! To examine and correct! The hopes of mummy bandages becoming chrysalis! The afterlife as registered by the New York Times bestseller list!

The galley proofs I hid beneath the floorboards of Bellgab!

The galley proofs wrapped around George Noory's still beating heart!

(Simply by using the correct jargon, you made my week, Mr. J. Indeed.)

Every THING is groovy. Every THING is groovy. Every THING is groovy. Every THING is groovy. Every THING is groovy. Every THING is groovy. Every THING is groovy. Every THING is groovy. Every THING is groovy. Every THING is groovy. Every THING is groovy. Every THING is groovy.

Ed Dames tonight.

I will tune in for an "Art's gold bars" update. But there will not be one.

At which point, I will become murderously pissed off.

So... Am taking a preemptive Haloperidol "navigation tool."

I will be a groovy psychonaut no matter what the annoying little bastard says.

Bring on the KILLSHOT, baby!

Maybe...but the vending machine is still out of Reggie bars. Racist. :

Please accept these albino Nazi babies in lieu of Reggie selection. We strive for a complete menu, but some items defy predictable SKU tracking. Thank you in advance for your patience.

Maintenance walkthru. Received a report that someone could not retrieve a turkey plate due to a jammed window door.

I wanna say... his name was Leo something. Ashcroft? No. Perhaps... Ashcraft.

You are correct, Sir. I deleted my post because it was so goddamned vague, yet you rang the brass bell anyway.  Thanks, buddy.

Leo Ashcraft:

Kitala: Love and hate are two horns on the same goat.

-the movie The Vikings, 1958 (based on the novel The Viking, 1951, by Edison Marshall)


Camazotz: The arms of an octopus constitute perfectly the seven deadly sins: pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath and sloth. Selah.

Robert Reader: What about the eighth arm?

Camazotz: The eighth arm means "Shut the fuck up, Bobby."

-Mescaline Memories From the Future, 2029


(The above is presented in case anyone is under the mistaken idea that the }goat quote{ originated with American author Kathryn Stockett's 2009 novel "The Help" and the subsequent 2011 film. How quickly Hollywood forgets. No idea where Marshall got it.)

Things got pretty steamy between her and Spock but he was just playing her the whole time. Nigga had ice in his veins.
