I just LOVE the tune of this, and I intend to sing it for my mother some day.

One of my lurkers is decrying my radio silence.
Every time I think graphene is the strangest thing ever, the boffins at UManchester kick my brain’s ass. http://www.manchester.ac.uk/research/news/display/?id=7895 Anyway, if you are a science fiction writer this new finding should jar loose some awesome ideas.
Atheists in conversation.
Me : Mocking religious people “God exists because I can feel him in my heart”
Katie: “Honey that’s called BLOOD.”
We are going to be talking about accommodations, because her house hunting is not going well.
Not enuff rehearsal!!!
Soup lunch went okay, but the really exciting news was the very tasty guitar stylings Paul threw on top of the new choon.
Zero-G (The Bed)
I’ve invented a bed, though no patent’s been applied for
and it’s the kind of bed (hint hint) … that is to die for
If there’s one thing that I know about our human race
it’s that we’re going to be having lots of sex in outer space
Chorus:
& I’ll love someone, love someone, love someone
who knows what to do in zero G
& I’ll love someone, love someone, love someone
who knows how to handle zero G
(and I know it’s microgravity!)
I believe that the design of my bed will prove out best
And I’m gonna need a quarter mil to put it to the test
and another quarter mil to launch a buddy for the trial
but I think you’ll need a crowbar if you want to lose my smile
Chorus
I’ve designed my bed for two but in a pinch it will hold three
for you never know when someone’s going to think creatively
or be needing to accommodate some polyamory
I can’t predict its uses and that’s half the fun you see
Chorus
So picture (if you will)… a tube of comfy fiber
now I have to bring more detail if I am to describe her
There have to be attachment points …two fore and two aft
I’m hoping you can picture this and I’m not going daft
there are 4 more in the middle to take care of Newton’s laws
for they anchor you and dampen out the bounce on roll and yaw
If you’re entertaining fantasies of being overpowered
You can weigh three hundred pounds and get tossed ’round just like a flower
Spoken: This is an important safety announcement from the Lo-Orbit No-Tell Motel. Despite what you may have heard about Zero G sex, you must still take the mass of every object you move into consideration or injury or death may result. Thank you.
Chorus
There are bungees wrapped around the bed to keep you pressed together
and if you lose traction ankle straps are optional as tethers
If there’s too much bounce and wiggle the bed just self corrects
and it will work for anybody’s preference and sex
Chorus
Apogee Perigee Zero-g to fade
I have really bad vertigo. And I’m committed to take a soup lunch in to church today. Bleaugh!
I have a metric crapstack of stuff to do before Conflikt, so I hope I keep my wits about me this weekend.
A new poem. It’s been ages since I wrote one.
“Intelligence is the capacity to receive, decode and transmit information efficiently. Stupidity is blockage of this process at any point. Bigotry, ideologies, etc. block the ability to receive; robotic reality-tunnels block the ability to decode or integrate new signals; censorship blocks transmission.”
— Robert Anton Wilson
… free in Yemen, and Oaxaca, also free to you and me
Not speaking of who pays for it , but of human liberty
The Internet is free!
Lobbyists take sand and pound it
Leave the net the way you found it
We will learn to route around it!
The Internet is free!
You’ve woken up a Golem you will never ever stop
When under-20s get it they will fight you till they drop
What kind of harvest will you get with ignorance the crop?
The Internet is free!
I’m at the Wet Spot on Kingsway waiting for my snow tires. I think I’m one of two people who cleared the walkway of the six inches of slush that fell from the sky. Now I feel like I can cross town for the housefilk without taking my health and safety too much for granted.
Beautiful… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBAL__X7lqY
So I’ll be having lunch or dinner with Carol and Sue sometime after mid February regarding the transition to becoming Secretary for the church. I think Carol is very relieved to be going off the board – Karen is too. Everybody is so busy and tired but the meetings are very cheerful and energizing and sometimes quite passionate without ever becoming disrespectful or heated. It’s at the Board Meetings I really feel like I’m living my U*U values…. the whole “Step up instead of back” and “Respect for oneself, respect for others” stuff that’s very hard to learn unless you have ongoing, important and committed EXAMPLES in front of you.
The weather continues glorious. As does my mood. Even if – one of my star performers at work is probably going to find another position within the company which will be insane making for me especially if, as I see likely, they will tell me that there won’t be a replacement.
The cats have decided to only come near me if I’m feeding them or on the can. Eddie always looks at me like “Why can’t you use a cat box like a normal person”.
I want to slap everybody in Finance, with about three exceptions, until they cry. Shows you that my U*U principles can’t stand the strain of crossing the threshold at Doc Oc’s Lab here. But we must bring our light out into the world, until somebody steals the damned thing. And when my light gets stolen, I get PISSED.
