It's a stove.

No, those are different cockles - Irish cockles, like from the sea. Cockle is also another word for 'fold'. No, you don't cockle a piece of paper, but that's where the heart's cockle comes from.
Shit, THAT'S the one Tommy meant?? Sorry, but it's damned hard to concentrate on decent things. I know you'll understand . . .

Autumn, please don't die.

your life wants to live as much as we all want it to.
we want it all the way over the brim....in deluges.
your life swivels our office chairs.
your life pokes its head in our door and slips us the sly grin.
your life walks in among the olive trees, moving in silent passion with the moon
your life tells stories in the dark in between forks of heat lightning.
your life makes hoot owls call and tugboats crawl for a closer, longer time with you.
your life takes the leper angels by the hand, gets them into their pajamas and has them jiggling and wiggling through the wildest joyful smiles they ever knew.
your life takes us into the rain and up go the Umbrellas of Cherbourg and we don't get wet, we just get soaked in the evocative way your singing voice summons to us to look over the sheer cliffs and take off and fly in our dreams
your life is purty, and purty big (it blocks the road so we have to stop and go off the beaten track where we find you again over there, sittin', chewin' on a straw, lettin' us have one a yer dry throaty cackles).
your life rakes and shovels the gunk outa our minds.
your life, no matter where it happens to be, always knows the best place to go to, to take a poop.
your life knows how to treat gentle creatures to a date out at the dirt track.
your life kisses awake what surges up from down under, and we don't know how long it's been buried there, but we sure hear the thunder.
your life listens when a toothless woman cries through her despair, you hold her hands in yours as she softens her glare.
your life wonders about things when they go wrong, but by the time they feel your presence, they're already singin' yer song.
your life sidesteps incredible accidents and long indecisions along the way of the intuitive journey.
your life is the one that can write a thank-you note at an inconsolable hour,
coaxing the external soul to come inside and feel the power.
your life hears Picasso snoring in his sleep, so you lay down beside him and with yours you tickle his feet.
your life opens up my favorite cookbook, Bean Soups To Eat At Operas, and just reads and reads from the most nutritious recipes it's got.

Thank goodness these aren't the computers that run the website, those babies
are sitting downtown in the Colorado building running BSDI UNIX and have
been for many years. This www machine is a bit tempermental about dates,
but we continue to baby it, and access and barton along. Amazing how they
run year in and year out unattended, unlike the Windows boxes in this house.

I'll be doing some motherboard and other upgrades to the systems here to get
them more reliable. In fact, we may go to Windows Terminal Server so they
all can take advantage of a single high speed server.

Riette, we used to put our bread into a steam cabinet set for 90F. That is about
31C

Riette: close the door to your bath. Turn the shower on hot for 10 min. Shut the
shower off. Put the bread in the bathroom, and close the door.

Thank you, I learned to cook on a wood stove, where all you had to do to get bread to rise, was put the bread pan in a pan of water, and place it in the warming closet, leaving the door partially open. Now we got all these gadgets,
there's no warming closet on the stove anymore, and nobody knows how to do anything. I also miss the hot water reservoir. Nothing like it for a Quick cup of hot chocolate.

Are you serious, Wer?? You cook on these gas stoves with the big blue flame? Those things make no sense to me at all.

I find that with electric, you have almost no control over heat.

nope, it adds random keywords to the ones you input to provide (hopefully) results you might have missed otherwise

if it made sense to you, you wouldn't need it as you'd redefine your own searches

those subjects on the side are the algorythms? (i didn't explore much, can you tell?)

Oh the possibilities! I tried volcano eruption and got measuring because I chose the Current words news as my category of choice. It works. However echo with seeds is very off the wall. They have no "science" choice. They need one.

for the volcanoes, I tried lots of stuff including the new agey topics and your results will vary - it is kinda funny doing it that way.
