Netscape ISP

If you're interested in going back to the old Netscape home page, they have something similar up at http://isp.netscape.com/. So, the inconvenience of having to change your homepage after the inconvenience of waking up to an unexpected site change sounds like a bad day for Netscape. Here's the screenshot:



Netscape, not really the same but better than the alternative

Star Jones jonsin' for work

Star's gone. We can all do a happy jig and eat tons of cheescake! We'll all get SJ fat and then have elective gastric bypass surgery...oops, I mean, do a lot of pilates and change our eating habits! Yeah right, Star, and your hubby's totally het!

But seriously, folks. I was never a fan of the 'View'. Don't think I even ever watched a full show. But still, it touches my heart to see a woman who so outwardly and unforgivably used her 'fame' to gain freebies.. 30+ vendors, to be exact, for a free Bridezilla freak wedding where she threw guests out because they weren't dressed appropriately or had their own cameras..finally get a taste of her own medicine. She's been erased from the 'View' website as well as the show and, hopefully, from all of humanity.

Ding Dong the Bitch is Gone! Doesn't that just make you wanna rejoice?!

More JK Rowling

JK Rowling has propelled the publicity of her immensely successful Harry Potter novels once again by divulging to her billions of avid fans that no less than TWO main characters will be killed off in book seven, supposedly the 'last' of the series. Start guessing, fans of the 'Boy Who Lived'! All guesses will be published here under comments. My guess? Hermione and Harry... or at least that's what I hope! Ron would do well to be killed off as well, but since we can only guess two, I'll go with the most obnoxious.

Newer is Definitely not Better

The Netscape home page has changed. Much to the chagrin of it's many users. I liked the old way, too. I don't quite understand what they've done or why. I suppose they are trying to compete or promote digg.com. Let Digg do the community user news.. Netscape should stay true to the top stories/headlines. I've created a screenshot for you all to view. Unfortunately I do not have a shot of the old one. I could not forsee this horrible change so I never thought it would be necessary. NETSCAPE go back to the way things were or at least give your users the CHOICE!

Fall

I stood there

On the fall of a day so chilled-

Millions of leaves

Encircling halos,

Starlight patterns

On brick and granite.

Gently tousling my hair

Stealth and silent

Each one fell

A vibrant gold parade.

Fiery star,

Hung her head in shame

For her beauty could not surpass

Such a bright flurry.

This timeless dance

Surrounded by Man’s greatest marvels,

Ghosts and wounded sky

For the beholder-

Quite an awesome spectacle

For the beheld-

A turning of the season.

Blank

BLANK


I hate everything blank--
Black and white
There's another shade of gray
That refuses to let its head up,
But time is coming
For everything to emerge
Changes on the wings
Of red tipped blue jays
Call in the middle of the night.
Light shines on darkened paths
And the moon opens up the land.
Isn't it gray? Isn't it silver yet?
Boredom and isolation
If gone unnoticed
Can create discord
Among stars and winters.
Telephones, sometimes
Are the only things that talk--
And no matter how strong
The green lines
Create themselves,
I can attest
That they are not always correct.

Lake

Together quickly they rode
The open night
Spreading before them
Fear building with each step..
What had happened?
How had it been allowed?
Pace quickening now
Breath falling harder, faster
Cool night air
Tearing at this sweat stained brow
Though, Malevolent and looming
Oily and still
It stood next to him.
As the hours passed
Rounded fingers
Spreading from heart to shore
And back again.
Over and over, a cycle
Mockery and mimicry
The soft gentle lapping
Immediately gave way
To Sinister voices
Echoing throughout the ripples
Contorting his sanity
To do their will and bidding.
Ah again the silence became too loud
This time he saw the clouds
Felt his heart floating
All the while not realizing--
From his hands her blood,
From it's hands his blood.

Dwindle II

Dwindling on a bit, as usual. Time floats by and whiling away the hours behind flashing monitors and blinking lights is my trademark.

Who's to say what's right or wrong?

Whilst you ponder the question, Dear Readers (all two of you), I ask you to gaze longingly into a mirrored version of my old lava lamp and, maybe, the answers will be found in the floating globs.
