  • ~listening *Yellow* @ coldplay~


    sometimes words can make a difference.  all your comments on yesterday's blog did a  difference make for me in strumming life along and staving off the dangerously entangling, expanding circle grip of fate that faery Death did visit upon my kitty Hawk.  thanks.


    What has me laughing: houses with Christmas lawn decorations where more than one Santa is portrayed.  I mean, picture yourself a kid and being told there's a real Santa and then looking out the window across the street to see 5 of them presiding in mutal self-mockery. 



    Such duplicity with visions of sugarplums does multiplicity mix.  I have actually made a sport over the years out of spotting mutliple (schizoid) neighborhood Santa displays--most ever was 8, this year 3 (but haven't had much time to look).


    Now here's something useful: mailexpire , a time-driven expiring alias for your current email address that you can use to help avoid spam (Sex Ponography And Mayhem).  Hey, it took me 10 seconds just now to generate this:


    Your auto-expiring email alias has been created.
    Your alias is husbankish@mailexpire.com
    Reminder: xanga
    Alias created: 2001-12-24 02:55:31 GMT
    Alias lifespan: 12 hours
    Alias expires: 2001-12-24 14:55:31 GMT


    So, for instance, let's say you need to submit a genuine email address (or alias) for password verification to a new free duper-trooper internet service (ok) but they will in turn sell your email address to marketeering spammers (very bad), well, jack, the mailexpire alias' clock's a'ticking (very, very good) as sure as Cinderella's coach turns into a pumpkin on the stroke.


    and finally, finally, finally in Northern Ohio at this very moment we're now having our first appreciable virgin snowfall of the winter season.  think I might just go out and tramp in it--as most men are want to do.
