'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe."Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!"He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought --
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood a while in thought.And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!One two! One two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back."And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
Oh frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!"
He chortled in his joy.'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.posted 07-21-2000 01:18 AM PT (US) James

I have a very strong urge to post all eight fits of The Hunting of the Snark, but I have a feeling that the Bellman... I mean, uh, Peter would be frumious with me if I did that.

"...take the two words 'fuming' and 'furious'. Make up your mind that you will say both words, but leave it unsettled which you will say first. Now open your mouth and speak. If your thoughts incline ever so little towards 'fuming', you will say 'fuming-furious'; if they turn, by even a hair's breadth, towards 'furious', you will say 'furious-fuming'; but if you are blessed with that rarest of gifts, a perfectly balanced mind, you will say 'frumious'.
Supposing that, when Pistol uttered the well-known words -
'Under which king, Bezonian? Speak or die!'
Justice Shallow had felt certain that it was either William or Richard, but had not been able to settle which, so that he could not possibly say either name before the other, can it be doubted that, rather than die, he would have gasped out 'Rilchiam!'"

I thought the subjects with the most posts were:
"Film music fans are all sad gits and all film music is crap"
and
"Jerry Goldsmith was my secret lover for 40 years"

Wait a go James. I hadn't heard that amazing poem for a good 5 years (Twas brillig...)Amazing stuff.
To PeterK - I've got the same problem mentioned earlier. All of a sudden my browser doesn't remember my password any more, and the explorer settings haven't been touched.
Here's my contribution to the poetry section. I sent this in to the local newspaper last Feb 14th and it got printed (I was single and very bored at the time)
Some people say I'm wrong to love you
Because of who you are
But I know what they cannot see
I'm luckier, by far.You love with deeds, instead of words
And I love you for that
I know your heart belongs to me,
Because you are my cat.:-)
NP - Red Violin - picked it up yesterday, and so far I'm quite dissappointed.

Ah yes, The Jabberwocky. Lewis Carroll is also a master of the nonsense. Maybe not of the absurd as much as Steve Martin, but of incoherent words nonetheless....Well, no more nonsense to add to this tove right now. I believe I've done most mimsy of my part. It's brillig over here, and I'm going to gimble outside. I wish you a frabjous day.

Anybody know any cool limericks?There was an old man of Ealing
Who had an unusual feeling
But a sign on the door
said 'don't spit on the floor'
So he looked up and spat at the ceiling.NP - Red Violin

So has anyone taken the cue "Shark Attack" from the expanded Jaws and played it over the scene where Quint buys the farm? It fits pretty damn good. Start it as soon as Quint looks to his left and Brody drops the cage. Does anyone know for sure if that was what the cue was originally written for? I know it was used in the trailers for Jaws.[This message has been edited by Mark Olivarez (edited 21 July 2000).]

I don't think any thread has ever broken the 200-message line here ... and we're not far away from it now! Let's keep it up!It's always more fun if we're arguing about something, but so far, everything's been pretty damn cordial. I sure do hate to see that. Maybe things will heat up.
NP: THE HAUNTING (Jerry Goldsmith) (he sucks! Will that work? nah, none of you will believe that I think he sucks ... well come on people, think of something controversial! I want to see a cumulative 200 postings by Tuesday morning.)

Rocco, if it's CONTROVERSY you seek, you know full well that I can provide it!I'd like to offer the following statement in an effort to catapult this thread past 300 posts:
I made a recent discovery that has changed my life completely. I am not joking, and I am not creating a fiction. This is the honest truth.
For many centuries the topics of "religion" and "science" have been completely seperated, as if they were foreign to one another. Based upon humankind's limited knowledge in each area, I can understand the gap that was drawn between them.
However, what I have discovered is that FAITH is God's Science! Faith IS science in God's eyes! And if you choose to STUDY what the Bible teaches concerning the precepts of FAITH, and then IMPLEMENT those rules, they WILL work in your life just as certainly as the law of gravity keeps your feet on the floor every day!I have done this, and it WORKS!
If anyone desires to discuss this topic, perhaps I have found a way to extend this thread further.
If not...I will next offer my favorite recipe for BANANAS FOSTER!!!
OOOOH! It's soooo tasty!

Whoa. That was DRAMATIC, Jonathan.And now... just to add to this educated thread...
An entry from The Associated Press Stylebook and Libel Manuel.
"sex changes - Follow these guidelines in using proper names or personal pronouns when referring to an individual who has had a sex-change operation.
-- If the reference is to an action before the operation, use the proper name and sex of the individual at that time.
-- If the reference is to an action after the operation, use the new proper name and sex.
For example:
'Dr. Richard Raskind was a first-rate amateur tennis player. He won several tournaments. Ten years later, when Dr. Renee Richards applied to play in tournaments, many women players objected on the ground that she was the former Richard Raskind, who had undergone a sex-change operation. Miss Richards said she was entitled to compete as a woman.'Mmmm boy. Learning is fun, isn't it?
Lesson is over. Class dismissed.posted 07-23-2000 10:29 PM PT (US) James

Chris-I'm afraid I am well educated on that principle, so if you'd go ahead with your Bananas Foster, then that would be great. It would save Mr. 2 another case of typist's cramp, as well.
