PHILOSOPHY COMIX

PHILOSOPHY COMIX
does what it says on the label

The Brick Testament

The Brick Testament
and there I was earlier today, on my bike, speculating like a liberal about how all those homophobic (etc) orders in the Bible were probably conditional ones obviously aimed at specific groups and needlessly being generalised along the lines of "St Paul said put your raincoat on! We must all wear raincoats all the time!!".
But here is the horse's mouth (if the horse is called Lego).
can't wait for the apocalypso.

nice cartoons discovered during
(a) a conference (sitting at the back)
(b) searching for images to accompany a lecture.
These are not suitable, but enjoyable.

Online Encyclopedia - LoveToKnow

this is a 1911 edition of Britannica. Lack of illustrations and figures, some text garbled, but a treat.

Jerry Radio - Grateful Dead Internet radio station streaming on-demand bootleg concerts in Real Audio

Jerry Radio - Grateful Dead Internet radio station streaming on-demand bootleg concerts in Real Audio I've just picked up and enjpyed the CD of David Crosby, IF ONLY I COULD REMEMBER MY NAME. Its long been rumoured that this is extracted from about 4 hours of material that has been circulating on CDRs and tapes since 1970. On this site is an hour long jamming session from this material, which features PERRO, the Planet Earth Rock and Roll Orchestra, featuring Kantner, Garcia and other luminaries. Unlike most of the tracks featured on the Jeruyy Radio front page, the PERRO session will not play. However, I've found how to get it. Click onto "listener comments". Then when the music player bar appears above the track listing and reviewer comments, right click your mouse button, select "play in realplayer", and you're away. Features "Mountain Song" (3 versions) and "Wooden Ships" and other nice stuff.
