Interesting.  I find tearing up "Hack your way to Script Kiddie
Stardom in EZperlizedXMLpro 1.11.43.6 (NT version) in the time it
takes to eat a biscuit (no text, just pictures)" type books works very

We don't run to oxygen bars in Cambridge.

George Gobel (GHG to himself) and his lemon-yellow Hummer are still at Purdue.
He gained national fame a few years ago by speed-lighting charcoal grills by
dumping liquid oxygen on them.
