The Catfish's Transforming Web Pages

I don't know about your brain- but mine is really bossy.
I come home from a day on the golf course and I find all these messages scribbled on wrinkled up scraps of paper
And they say thing like: Why don't you get a real job?
Or: You and what army?
Or: Get a horse.

-Laurie Anderson


Every page on the net is "under construction". These pages are "under mutation"; they change every time they are visited, barring a few nescessary constants. If you're lazy enough to stay here fifteen minutes and your browser supports META tags, we'll reload the page for you.

Service offer: send me unsolicited, "bulk" (commercial or non) email, and I'll proof it for 50 dollars a line! See here for more info on my valuable offer!

If you want to be blackholed at the gweep.net mail server, thou ruttish guts-griping ratsbane, send mail to my old flame-bucket or to an old address. If you don't like something about these pages, or wish to correlate address scraping thou villainous fen-sucked knotty-pated measle, send mail to my current flame-bucket. If you like something about these pages, send mail to web-comment where scraped appears in the mailto link.

Pass the Lord, and Praise the Ammunition!

Little-known Joe Fact Number 74:
He once interviewed Boston band You Shriek! on his late night radio show at WICN in Worcester Massachusetts.

"Over the years, I think vi/grep/find/screen/sort/diff (eh, maybe a differernt 6 - hard to split up sort/uniq/cut/cmp/diff/...) have been the lever/wheel/pulley/inclined plane/wedge/screw of my life."

Might I suggest visiting Scott Lesser and visiting Bozo Texino... before it is too late.

Want more spew? Let's watch some cartoons! Oh wait - now is time for the commercial interruption!

And as a parting shot, meditate upon this classic Zen koan:

One sunny morning, a young student saw a master by the marketplace.
Said the student to the master: "What is the secret to awareness?"
Said the master: "When the horse is like the water, then there shall be true compassion."
At that, the student became Enlightened.

Cheers,
