. . . : ; The "CHICO'S GROOVE FRIGHT" Notice
Yup. It's the inevitable theme issue.
. . . : ; The "THEME ISSUE?" Notice
Ok. Well, it's not really a theme. It's more like "Morbus worked
on a bunch of stuff that's really scary, so nothing can be released
for fear of death". This issue, in turn, is incredibly
tiny. I call it a "theme" to make it seem like I planned this all
along. That's a crafty editor trick.
. . . : ; ANNOUNCEMENTS and yeah, we fear you Morbus...
NEW DEVIL SHAT (#SixtyFive): Morbus has been feeling sick lately. You'll
see why when you open Devil Shat - an article by him. Quite strange and
unusual. He's sure to bring the quality done. I hate him. Rown Garnbii,
on the other hand, is cuter than a swedish ham. This issue, read his
final article of the Ten Commandments, and see the shocking truth of
whether he's heading for Heaven or Hell. We also talk about the Fresh
Prince of Bel Air. He's so retro it gets me hard.
TWO NEW VIEWER DISCRETIONS: I can't deal with Viewer Discretion anymore.
It's nice to know that IGNORE the HYPE (the sailor moon who puts out VD)
doesn't read the Groove - it gives me an avenue to vent about the crap
he's been putting out. Pornography in the latest issue? Come on, what
the hell was that all about? I'm tellin' ya, I think this was a bad
decision. Fucking Canadians - should have known.
NEW NETSLAVES MATERIAL: As always, there's the daily NetSlaves grind and
rant - whether it be Gilliard pissing off the people from APBnews,
Baldwin counting the collective souls of the now dot-dead, or Mirsky
open-sourcing freetoiletpaper.com, it's always worth checking out.
MISCELLANEOUS: This is the miscellaneous "get it outta the way crap"
paragraph: Slashdot mentioned Mirsky's "Open Source Business Plans" and
our second Slashdot effect pushed us to a new record of 321,571 hits in
a week - we survived nicely. Also new is Blogger(.com) integration of
DNN, which has breathed fresh and direly needed daily blood - it's been
nicely restored to its former glory, including a general cleaning of the
archives. Minor changes popped into the main pages and the About
section, as a new aggressive background was added, helping to fill the
screen on larger monitors.
. . . : ; EVERYTHING else and it's true, so croak bitch...
MISCELLANEOUS 2: Yup. It's another big paragraph of shoddily created
sentences. You wanna know why? I just bought a new TV - a nice $400 Sony
piece. I actually had a better Sony in mind, but everywhere I looked,
the friggin' thing was sold out and back ordered 'til September. And I'm
just a plain old impatient bitch.
MISCELLANEOUS 3: Anyways, so I bought a new TV and now want to play
games on it. And watch all the movies I had bought when I had the crappy
TV. And to repick up where I left off on Final Fantasy VIII. I never
thought having a new Devil box would give me so many ways to unwind.
MISCELLANEOUS 4: Along with more CD purchases than I care to imagine, 10
new Nintendo (8 bit Nintendo, not suckass 64 bit) games were purchased.
Of course, now I'm getting the flashing white screen every 2 seconds.
But that's ok.
MISCELLANEOUS 5: You know, these stupid miscellaneous things are getting
annoying. I think I'll switch the rest to the Blah Blah. Yeah, that's a
good editor. Give up all your secrets to the masses. Sigh.
. . . : ; BLAHBLAHS OF THE WEEK: ( may 12th - june 6th )
[Website-of-the-Week]-= Spyonit.com
---I read email daily, whereas favorite websites are lucky if they
---get read daily. Welp, with Spyonit.com finally opening their
---XML SDK, I can now mess around with creating my own Spies,
---whose sole purpose is to provide the latest updates to my
---favorite sites in my Inbox. This is a good timesaver and
---I would heartily recommend anyone to this site. The
---people are cool too.
[Website-of-the-Week]-= Onepage.com
---In the meantime, while I'm wraggling my tongue around the
---XML SDK of Spyonit, I've been using onepage.com to keep
---everything else in tow. Onepage.com basically allows
---a single page (up to twelve single pages, actually) to
---suck down information from up to ten other sites (per page).
---It's quite flexible, and about 50 daily websites now
---haunt my Onepage account. Another good time saver.
[Toy-of-the-Week]-= Webcam!!
---Custom perl programming for a good friend led to a hefty
---paycheck (for something I enjoy so dearly) which paid for
---a 3com HomeConnect USB digital camera. I tell ya, soon
---you'll be able to see near real time images of yours
---truly. Wait! Don't unsubscribe yet! I take requests!
---I'll even sing! Yeah, I bought a micro - hey! where you
---going? Hello? ... Hel... Hello?
[Impatience-of-the-Week]-= Whatcha' Reading, Bitch
---I should have quality checked this. But I didn't. Ha!
---Another editor trick disappears from my bag of hicks.
