WINNER OF THE 1999 GOLDEN WEB AWARD!
"Gibberish" By Travis Schau
Fire and Ice, the Scourge of the World. Bound for eternity, yet
never gone.
And the Heavens shook with its rage, darkness unyielding. Freedom
as it was
in the beginning, and as it had meant to be in the end. Good
turned evil,
stained red with the blood of God. A black halo, shadows of
forbidden power.
And the lord said to me: The mighty are fallen, and the fallen
are mighty.
The land has wept with the Wrath of God. The angels have flown
among the
Demons singing, "Infinity has ended. The Alpha and the Omega
are one. Do not
fear, Sons of Darkness, Tomorrow is over."
And thus, the cycle was completed. And thus, as it was in the
beginning, all
was still.

Techie Corner (Stump Nick)-
Q: My question is what is the difference between
parity and non-parity memory?
-Dlj Cool via the Internet
A:Well Dlj Cool, parity is a completely
different kind of chip than non-parity.
For instance, when the bits in a parity chip would say 7E1 the
non-parity
would be 8N1. Basically you use parity as an error correcting
chip, it
figures out the odds and the even bits and puts them together so
your computer
will function correctly.

"Mr. Potato Head" by Chris Brennan
Look in the sky its a bird, its a plane. No it's Mr. Potato Head!
Everybody has had one. They're the coolest little toys. I still
have one. I got him from the movie Toy Story. He is really nifty.
For fun, sometimes I like putting his arm in his mouth. It's so
funny. I still get a kick out of it. So, I recommend you get a Mr.
Potato Head, and play with it for hours on end. I know I do!
