Loose Ends

First, a comment synopsis:

craigb156, for some reason, likes to call “spirits,” “critters.” He prefers smack to other ramen flavors. He finds a whale aquarium a “hard lie to quit.” He has a strange plastic clip.

teensleuth is less critical of trepanning her own child than she used to be, and never tires of hearing about Rudolph Schwarzkogler.

alchemistar finds it nice to be recognized. As a gnome.

spoke9 thinks a fixed point can only be the eye of God.

klbrown enjoys the taste of a trim quince. She also objected, in French, to R4mr0d Inc’s insufficient ellipticality, in response to which we have instituted an ongoing policy of matryushka structure for all subsequent communications.

Via e-mail, dsa137 mentioned that he used to live with a dunny designer, and someone else wrote that she spent a summer in a trepanation museum in Mexico, and in various other ways succeeded in outdoing me.

You can always find out what people really said by clicking comments (or using rss to subscribe…).

Second, here are both sides of the Skullflower / Ramleh 7″ depicted in a recent post:

Skullflower: Ponyland

Ramleh: Fake Revolt

(To download on a pc, right-click and ’save as.’ On a mac you do something else, I think.)

Third, due to overwhelming demand I have gone through and rendered all audio links both flash-playable and downloadable. How about that for user-friendly.

Fourth, I am redoing my business website. The new site should be up tomorrow evening, which means, for 99% of you, before you read this.

Kisses

Halliday Dresser, proprietor, R4mr0d Inc.

Thinking Out Loud

what is it?it's a bunch of pipes!

I’ve been trying to figure something out.
it doesn't look like muchwe are not sureit seems to be a construction of some sortperhaps it is a molecular model?or maybe it's just nothing

I’ll let you know if I make any headway.

“All the objects — organic and inorganic alike — were totally beyond description or even comprehension. Gilman sometimes compared the inorganic masses to prisms, labyrinths, clusters of cubes and planes, and Cyclopean buildings; and the organic things struck him variously as groups of bubbles, octopi, centipedes, living Hindoo idols, and intricate Arabesques roused into a kind of ophidian animation. […] Of how the organic entities moved, he could tell no more than of how he moved himself. In time he observed a further mystery — the tendency of certain entites to appear suddenly out of empty space, or to disappear totally with equal suddenness. The shrieking, roaring confusion of sound which permeated the abysses was past all analysis as to pitch, timbre, or rhythm; but seemed to be synchronous with vague visual changes in all the indefinite objects, organic and inorganic alike.”

About

Suddenly, without warning, the old-timer began quietly singing:

“It’s like an old war wound, and it hurts me sometimes

like an ache in the plate in my head

It’s like an old war wound, and it hurts me sometimes

when the weather is fixing to change.”

I use this for thinking. You can help.
