KHftCEA 1998-04.2 April
Last night going for my writeable cd-rom- realized for the first time in a while how close I was to the HoJo's where 222nd Jazz stayed in 1991. (and how close I'll be to it at the Big Yellow House.) Looked at where the bus pulled up, the dining room we ate brunch at. Thought of looking into the humid small poolroom, racing through the stairwells, looking at our reflection (and of Veronika's odd red shirt with the doo-dads attached) in the window at the end of the hall. Veronika was my first big love, and 'you never forget your first.' 98-4-16 --- ...And poor Llara with the passing of pumpkin. Though mostly I hear her yelling "pumpkin" in that loud high disapointed voice. 98-4-16 --- "The lamp works" --note on floor lamp on curbside --- Dear Betty, thanks for the room & board... You're swell... Too bad about Kirk, huh? love Sarah & Dylan --unmailed post-holiday card (written next to scratched out greeting to 'Dave & Sue') --- "Which will last longer - Mickey Mouse or Walt Disney Incorporated?" --Koan posed by Danny Hillis --- Interesting conversation between some christian scholar types 1 table over at the 1369. 98-4-19 --- RIP Dave Johnson April 25 1997 --- I don't particularly like challenges- is that a character flaw? 98-4-20 --- doorhinge (roughly) rhymes with orange but month stands alone. 98-4-21 --- "As I've said many times before, the trouble with our business plan is that it depends for its success upon a steady, rapid increase in the supply of really smart people (to buy our stuff). Whereas what we see instead is explosive growth in the supply of idiots." --- In the spring, a young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of what The older man, throughout the year, Has never even once forgot Isaac Asimov, "The Sensuous Dirty Old Man" --- Game or Demo Idea: BubbleBlocks, with floating bubbles pushed up by a central coloumn of air, maybe it could be a basketball like game. 98-4-23 --- 'The last man on Earth sat alone in a room. There was a knock at the door...' the shortest SF-story ever, by Fredric Brown. --- "Life is better than death, I believe, if only because it is less boring, and because it has fresh peaches in it." -- Alice Walker |
