(COOLLIST) Sign of the Times
Last night, while at Book People, I saw the *SECOND* novel in a series
of the shelf based upon a noted WWW science fiction program: The
Stalker Files. Yow! Life can be surreal, ya know.
Also surreal is Yahoo! Austin <URL:http://austin.yahoo.com>, a
personalized Yahoo database with info related geographically to my
current place of residence. They also have message boards for
Austinites. In a topic on suggestions for newcomers, I found this:

Cool.
BTW, CombeeWeb was just updated. The Austin Chronicle now has a
search engine for their club listings, so I set up some URLs for
people to check to see if the groups I like are playing soon. That's
at <URL:http://www.yak.net/combee/music.html>.
Hmmm, what else? Look for anothe short story soon... I'm working on
something that I hope will be funny and insightful. I'd even be happy
with just one of those.

pithy quotes or neat phrases, then consider a career with the IRS or NSA...
