| Tuesday Aug 24, 1999 | "The IDchip
experiment was the embodiment of millenial angst as I saw it." Forget ID cards. Think wetware. to Computing by faisal |
| Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, but sometimes you have to question a man's fascination with really tall buildings. to Reference by boneyard |
| Monday Aug 23, 1999 | Are you tired of your advice columnists not being busty enough? Well then, go
Ask Kathi. If you need advice about love, sex, or breasts, and you're not satisfied unless it comes from someone with huge hooters, she's the one for you. She also has
Cheesecake Gallery if you'd rather just gawk. to Sex by keith |
| We have a wackos catagory with no mention of
Archimedes Plutonium?
This man is the undisputed master in the field of scientific sounding babble. His
Fusion Electricity Barrier Law and
Plutonium Atom Totality Theory are masterpieces.
My personal favorite, though, is
his two "proofs" of the Goldbach Conjecture which consist of putting ".0" after all the intergers, redefining what "prime" means, and then a bunch of meaningless hand waving.

| It's a pity; when I was a kid, I wanted evil guys to come in flavours, but they never did. Evidently someone else had the same idea and decided to take the problem into their own hands.

| Remember the days when someone asked to borrow your calculator, and you pulled out that vinyl-wrapped HP, laden with buttons. You probably said something like "oh, but it's not a *normal* calculator" and they twisted an eyebrow at you, sealing your fate as an ubergeek. RPN? What's that? The Museum of HP Calculators is a precious collection of photographs, historical notes, programming information, and manuals for HP calculators, including the first (non IC!) RPN calculator HP ever made, the HP 9100. Craig Finseth's HPDATABase is an amazing collection of specifications for HP calculators. And while you're at it, you might has well join the International Association of Calculator Collectors.

| Pick your poison. You can get the spin on fashion as well as the feministy stuff at gurl.com, or you can go for the slightly more hardcore at some of the links off of chickclick.

| Readers of Neal Stephenson's fantabulous Snow Crash excited about the prospect of interacting with the Internet through a digital construct/avatar won't need to wait for technology to catch up with their nerdish fantasies. While it may take some time before you can wield it like Hiro/Y.T., your personal avatar (the graphical/visual component) is available today, thanks to 3D-capture photobooths from the good folks at AvatarMe.

interview with
The Coup. to Music by keith |
| Some people think that there's too much sex in the media. I think there's not nearly enough. I mean, how many articles about sex are actually in your daily newspaper? That's why I read
The Associate Breast. Thank you,

PASDA on your unix host, the
Geospatial Data Abstraction Library

| Saturday Aug 21, 1999 | You know, when I see a URL like smgfan.com
, I'm thinking about fans of submachine guns. But the folks at smgfan.com have a completely
different idea, and their links to
hard-to-find movie-capture photos are nonetheless appreciated. to Sex by pjammer |
| The Atari 2600 is one of the simplest video game systems ever invented, yet it is one of the most complicated for which to program. Masochist programmers interested in writing tight code to fit in the 4K of address space and smart code to squeeze as much as possible out of the primitive TIA chip should go to Nick Bensema's Atari 2600 Programming Page. to Games by pjammer |

Now updated for 1998!

| In the "How many people can we piss off at once" department, two economists have found a (somewhat tenuous) link between legalized abortion and declining crime rates. to Politics by faisal |
| For some people, stealing girlfriends is probably an ego-booster or a way to be cruel, hurtful, and selfish. These are unhealthy motives. The only reason you should steal girlfriends is because it's hilarious. to Sex by pjammer |
| There are currently ten Presidential Libraries, managed by the National Archives and Records Administration. The eleventh is in planning stages, that is, if the controversy ever gets cleared up. to Politics by machita |
| Thursday Aug 19, 1999 | Often described as "cats trapped in dogs' bodies" the Basenji, originally bred as an African hunting dog, is unlike any other canine companion in the world. Their most prominent quirks are their curious inability to bark (basenjis have an unnervingly human yodel/laugh) and an playful, mischievous intelligence.

| Wouldn't it be great if Instant Messenger/ICQ could carry voice messages? Firetalk promises multiuser voice-support with just a 28.8 modem.
