B is for Beauty. Since these rewards are paid out of general tax revenues, the plain citizens are effectively subsidizing the good-looking ones. The most beautiful of them all can live off the royalties from the Department, a practice that gives new meaning to the phrase "walk the streets for money". 23 September 2001 / comments?

A is for Anonymous. United Nations Statistical Handbook. The entry for Vespucci Island has no entry for "population". Nor does it say anything about the country's Gross Domestic Product, its fertility rate, its literacy rate, or a dozen other statistics. The Vespuccian government, bound by a constitution with the world's strictest privacy clauses, maintains no such information about its population, and Vespuccian citizens are proud of their government's ignorance. 22 September 2001 / comments?

My Favorite Windows Error Messages -- Seth Gordon -- ropine.com
http://dynamic.ropine.com/windows-err-msgs
My Favorite Windows Error Messages. Programs running on real operating systems. Print out error messages as plain text, which can be copied, pasted, archived, searched, etc. GUI-based applications throw up alert boxes instead - and the programmers who wrote MacOS and Windows never thought that people would need to copy text. From an error message. Oh, yes, I see exactly what I did wrong. Where's "the large button"? Is such an important document, why doesn't. Copy to a safe location"? From UNIX, T.

Our Happy Little Network. Our domain name,. Is derived from atropine, the heart stimulant that makes "deadly nightshade" so deadly. (Atropine . Well, it seemed clever at the time.) All of the machines on our network, therefore, are named after plants in the nightshade (Solanaceae) family. Thanks to the generosity of Andrew Greene. And Andrea Kamens, we are the proud owners of a Linksys BEFSR11 router and firewall. This is an ancient 486 machine that I salvaged from Unique Simchas. And runs a Courier IMAP.
