He was granted a temproary permit for the project, but was stymied with the Cease and Desist order for the Earthly part. Appearing at the hearing, God was asked why he bgan his Earthly porject in the first place. He replied that he just liked to be creative. Then God said, "Let there be light". Officials immediately demanded to know how the light would be made. Would there be strip mining? What about thermal pollution? God explained that the light would come from a huge ball of fire. God was granted provisional permission to make light, assuming that no smoke would result from the ball of fire, that he would obtain a building permit, and (to conserve energy) would have the light out half the time. God agreed and said he would call the light "Day" and the darkness "Night". Officials replied they were not interested in semantics. God said, "Let the Earth bring forth green herb and such as many seed." The EPA agreed so long as native seed was used. Then God said, "Let waters bring forth creeping creatures having life; and the fowl that may fly over the Earth." Officials pointed out this would then require approval from the Department of Game coordinated with the Heavenly Wildlife Federation and the Audobongelic Society. Everything was OK until God said he wanted to complete the project in six days. Officials informed him it would take at least 200 days to review the application and the environmental impact statement. After that there would be a public hearing. Then there would be 1-20 months before... At this point God created Hell. -------------------------- Message 2 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Tue Aug 12 19:45:11 1997 EDT From: Slayer (#9883) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: NC Bash Pics I have posted my pics from the NC Bash as promised, sorry for the delay but I wasnt really planning on being told I'm out of a job.

I have returned to good ol New Mexico and the colorful city of lights called Albuquerque. I miss my friends I have played with for the last few weeks though and wish somehow I could see their faces one more time. The bash was the most wonderful time I've ever had away from home.. I feel as if I have a second family I can go to if needed. Beautiful people all of them. I wish more of you could of made it. I got a real good liking for Canadian beer, good stuff really.. I got a real good liking for clams and oysters too.. YUMMY! Beating on Ed was a blast too, and I have to say he's a very good sport for it too. Sue will be happy, I wore my loincloth and pictures were taken! WOO WOO! Scared Brian to death.. Osbornn aka Andy, is really a lush! And he's also a man for the ladies.. Mr. Moonheart didn't help poor Megan, and she was killed poor thing... I'd say its nearly a tie between Yara and Megan though on who is the cutest and most annoying. Slayer is the Black Knight, and a good barkeep! Dee is the most wonderful person, it was wonderful and great getting to know her better. Just don't wake her up to suddenly. Lenny, he is trouble, and is in trouble and will prolly stay in trouble all his life.. But ya know.. He's a great guy and if it wasn't for that nipple ring I'd say he was even cuddly Brian feels no pain, Karen has a hard nose, Jeannie has a small belly button, Lenny has Micro nipples, and Dee, well Dee is blessed. My Little One is a doll, she's one of my bestest friends in the whole world next to my Mom, Dog and a few others.. I love her dearly.. I couldn't refuse her anything at all. John relaxed, didn't eat well but he did spend his usually hours on the phone with his future Wife unit. Ed, well Ed is Ed and he's not as bad in rl as you'd imagin, I love to smack him good and he really learned to duck well.. Well, enough of that.. sorry for leaving anyone out.. I love you all muchly!

Apparently it had gotten infected and was gangerus rotten green inside.. *sigh* Tuesday the 5th of Auguest she was admitted into the hospital, the docs wanted to do surgery right away but she was stuborn and wanted to know what the cancer was doing first. Anyhow Wednesday the 6th after the Cscan the found that the chemo wasn't affecting the cancer, the convenced her to have the surgery to remove the infection and burn area and that was done Thursday afternoon and lasted well into the night.. She felt alot better after the surgery and was home by Saturday.. I arrived home today to find my mother in poor shape, she's lost alot of weight and can't move her right arm for another 2 weeks. I have spent my whole evening caring for her.. Right now its a waiting game.. The doc has given her 6 months to a year possibly but only God knows so we will live for now.. Life keeps slapping us in the face but we will face it full on and show it that we can Live.. We won't curl up and die, not yet. Anyhow, sorry this is depressing but needed to share. Love you all..

These are the pictures I wish someone could have snapped at the NC bash... The look on everyone's faces when they saw how nice Dari looked in her bathing suit. The look on Ed's face when I told him that yes, he could have a bandaid, but he'd have to get them himself, and they were tucked into a box of tampons so they wouldn't rip in my bag on the way down. The look of shock and horror on all of the piercing victims' faces coming out of the studio. The look on my face when Bob the Psychic Bodypiercer said, "Well, whip 'em out and let's see what we got here," which was shortly followed by, "Wow.. you have perfect nipples for this." The reaction of anyone in the beer aisle where seemingly total strangers ran up to and hugged each other half to death, as though they were in an old movie. The look on Kyn, Shae, and my faces when we realized we might be stuck in Ed's room for a night, and that it did not indeed sleep 10, as the manager had claimed. That's all I can think of at the moment... but I'm sure others have similar pics they missed.

I.e. You can't fly. Don't bother trying. 3) If for some odd-to-code reason you manage to get your ass up to a said mount without permission, forget it. You'd be devoured by the nice frendly and quite angry dragons to whose turf you so evily tread. Dragons do not all rest at the same time on Morlith, and hate to break it to you guys and gals, they don't sleep on Uruken. I.e. tehre is one that is always hungry for fresh meat that walks to them. Its a shit if its you. 4) You're not smarter than the dragons. Just because they haven't been all set to bite your head off without provocation,doesn't mean icly they wouldn't. 5) Even though they don't exist icly, Uruken holds gaurds. WIth guns. Big ones.

For those of you who don't know, I'm having all sorts of dental work done over the next few weeks, and have been, am currently, and will be in a great deal of pain. (When the dentist says, 'You should be needing some codeine for the next few weeks, it scares me.) Because of that, and all sorts of other things (like school beginning on the 3rd... ) please don't ask me to join any grand OOC crusades, I won't be any help. I'll probably be so out of it that if it's the alt debate, I'll get confused and make new alts for whoever complains thinking they wanted them. (Yes, I am -that- out of it, if not more so.) When it comes to personal stuff... if I'm a little less supportive than usual, please don't take offense. Whatever it is just might not be getting through the haze. I'm not reading too well, let along typing grandly. I'm not really the best shoulder at the moment, just because if you touch it, I scream about pain. (Think of a 2 year old with a scraped knee. That's me, now, with these pills.) Anyway... I'll be as lucid as I can, since those moments do come and go. Don't expect fast, whatever you do. Fast is something I watch other people do and say, 'wow, cool.. ' right now. *sigh* Anyway... this is less a rant than a warning, that if I seem to be a little listless, there is a reason IRL, and it's not just you, I am not mad at you particularly (whoever you are out there), just a bit out of sorts in general.

Well, this is gonna be a bit incoherent (someone hand me more painkillers) but I figured I would let people know about it early. This spring I'm hoping to host a MOObash at my place, during or generally around spring break. Sadly, I'm not exactly sure when mine is right now, so timing is a little nebulous, and will partly be scheduled around everyone else's convenient times. Length is also up for debate. (People can stay a month for all I care, really.) There are two houses, next door to each other, where people can stay. There is crashspace for 10 on beds alone in one of them, so hotels, etc. won't be a big worry, unless you can't stand the others milling around. Now, the scary part. It's in Delaware. (Hold your laughter, please. I have to live here.) Good thing is that it's 20 minutes from Philadelphia, and the airport there. There are some decent clubs around, and Sue and I will be leading shopping expeditions regularly. (You better make it now, Sue!) Aside from that, it'd be nice to see you all again, and meet some new people to torment in the future with odd pictures of them stuck up here and there on the web. Anyone with any interest, mail me. Though we won't have a beach (that humans can enter without their skin burning off, *grumbles about chemical companies*) we have enough crazy things in this house for a decent LARP (hide now) and keep people entertained. Dammit, only been home a while, and I already miss you people, my insane disfunctional MOO-family.

Many wonderfull things about that 4 mile long state. 1. It's the "Tax-Free Shopping State". 2. It's so cool, it has two names, "Small Wonder State." 3. It is connected to many larger states. 4. It is so small, you can perform a robbery and be out of state lines in under 5 minutes. 5. It had a state bird and state flower. But they moved to larger states. (STill come home for christmass from what I hear.) 7. Last but most certainly not least. Dee lives there. Nuff said. Hopefully this has convinced you all to come and party in the grande state of Delaware. I would not miss this for the world. Especially since I can see most of the state from my porch on a clear afternoon. I wont actually have to take off work. Another bonus for me. Just stop in and annoy those of you who do come. Oyes, almost forgot. Piercings will still be optional I believe. (subject to change without notice.)

By doing so you agree to accept and honor Microsoft rights to all TV dinners. You may not give anyone else a bite of your dinner (which would constitute an infringment of Microsoft's rights.) You may, however, let others smell and look at your dinner and are encouraged to tell them how good it is. If you have a PC microwave oven, insert the dinner into the oven. Set the oven using these keystrokes: <\mstv.dinn//08.5min50%heat//> Then enter: If you have MAC oven, insert the dinner and press start. The oven will recognize the MS TV Dinner, configure itself and cook the dinner automatically. If you have a UNIX oven, insert the dinner, enter the ingredients of the dinner (found on the package label), the weight of the dinner, and the desired level of cooking and press start. The oven will calculate the time and heat, and cook the dinner precisely. Be forwarned that Microsoft Dinners may crash, in which case your oven must be restarted. This is a simple procedure. Remove the dinner from the oven and enter: This process may have to be repeated. Try unplugging the microwave and then doing a cold reboot. If this doesn't work, contact your hardware vendor. Many users have reported that the dinner tray is far too big, larger then the dinner itself, having many useless compartments, most of which are empty. These are for future menu items. If the tray is too large to fit in your oven then you will need to upgrade your equipment. Dinners are only availabe from registered outlets, and only the chicken variety is currently produced. If you want another variety, call Microsofthelp and they will explain that you really don't want another variety. Microsoft chicken is all you really need. Microsoft has disclosed plans to discontinue smaller versions of thier chicken dinners. Future releases will only be in the large family suite. Excess chiken may be stored for future use, but it must be saved only in Microsoft approved packaging. Microsoft promises a dessert with every dinner after '98. However, that version has yet to be released. Users have permission to get thrilled in advance. Microsoft Dinners may be incompatible with other dinners in your freezer, causing your freezer to self-defrots. This is a feature, not a bug. Your freezer probably should have been defrosted anyway. -Styx (Laugh it up fuzzball) -------------------------- Message 64 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Sun Aug 31 00:14:46 1997 EDT From: Sater (#4919) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: Princess Di She just died.

Everyone should keep abreast of this issue, to nip it in the bud so to speak--who wants to grope in the dark in this day and age? Opportunity knocks, don't let it bust down your door! ---------- Experts Predict On-Line World Of 21st Century To Feature More Breasts PALO ALTO, CA--Government officials, computer scientists and leading information-technology figures from around the globe met at the annual International CyberTechnology Summit at Stanford University this past weekend to discuss the future of the Internet. And that future, they say, will be graced with an ever-increasing quantity of naked breasts. Despite differing on many Internet issues, all attendees were united in one basic belief: The Internet is a revolution in communications that will radically alter the way we access and view breasts in the 21st century. "The company that controls computerized pictures of naked breasts," said Marc Andreessen, Netscape senior vice-president of technology, "is the company that will control the next century." Netscape, whose Navigator is currently the world's most popular breast-server program, is in a position to be that company. But Microsoft, with its recent $5.1 billion purchase of the Hustler Archives, is mounting a strong challenge. "The Hustler Archives, with their high-resolution pictures of over 50 million pairs of breasts, is the largest catalog of digitized mammaries in existence," said Nicholas Negroponte, head of the famed MIT Breast Lab. "In the future, anyone who wants to see breasts--assuming, of course, they do not have access to real, live ones--may have to go through Bill Gates." Added Negroponte: "Every single person in the world uses computers." In attendance at the conference was Vice President Al Gore, who in his keynote speech said he someday foresees "a single, unified global computing community, in which men from as far off as New Zealand and Germany will be able to log onto their computers and masturbate silently in the dark to the same pair of breasts." "This," Gore stressed, "is the exciting promise of the Information Age." To compete with Microsoft, Netscape is currently developing BreastLink 8000, a state-of-the-art, fiber-optic downlink device which will one day meld the television, telephone and computer into a single breast-viewing device. "BreastLink 8000 will be the center of every family home someday," Netscape CEO James Barksdale said. "It will make 72 dpi images of breasts obsolete, replacing them with supra-real photos and quick-time movies. Waiting several seconds for breast pictures to download on our clunky computers of today is simply barbaric." Negroponte agreed with Barksdale: "Revolutionary. Computers. Internet. Future." Educators present at the conference stressed the importance of keeping America's children on top of all the latest breast-viewing technology. "Breasts will be a vital educational tool in the years to come," said Chicago-area elementary school teacher Pat Ross. "We must be careful that we don't fall so far behind that there becomes a 'breast gap' between children of the U.S. and those of other nations." While the ripe, juicy, heaving bosoms of nubile females was the main focus of the technology summit, many in attendance promised a future bright with wonders beyond breasts. "A cornucopia of bare, wet rumps; hot and horny lesbian action; and naked nympho sluts in various stages of auto-erotica await the computer user of the future," said Wired editor Phil Henson. "The flesh-sampling possibilities are virtually limitless. It's very exciting." "What an extraordinary time to be a child," said Walter Lowery, of Phillips Magnavox's new BreastTV. On-line breast viewing, or "the Internet," is currently a $20 billion a year enterprise. -------------------------- -------------------------- Message 69 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Mon Sep 1 19:13:26 1997 EDT From: Janus (#3597) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: re: Rathe's *idea Ok.
