The Bleat is especially nice today:
"...Around ten I had visited every blog on my bookmark, and decided to do something productive: let's polish the wood cabinets. I had a bottle of Pledge Orange Oil Wood Polish, which I'd purchased at Target alone with the Pledge Fresh Orange Dry-Sheet Static-cling Swiffer refill sheets. (That sentence will look as nonsensical 500 years from now as Chaucer does today.) Orange has apparently replaced Lemon as the signifier of woodly goodness, and as a sensation-addled consumer intoxicated by the lure of the new, I applaud it. I like the bright saturated orange of the bottles on the shelf. Lemon - that’s oldthink, brother! I can’t wait to use up my stupid old lemon-scent Olde Englishe polishing cloths, which just scream of the ancien regime of wood care paradigms. So I sprayed & rubbed & buffed until the entire kitchen smelled like someone had detonated a clementine the size of Orson Welles' left breast."
Damn, I wish I could write like that. The man makes DUSTING funny.

Man, I'm posting a lot today.
C&Ped from BBTForum:
Crikey. You know what pisses me off? I've been asking around for advice about my hosting woes, and I keep getting stuff like "take down your videos and MP3s and streaming media".
Yeah, all 1 of my MP3s, and all 1 of my MPEGs, which comed to a grand total of... 4 MB.
Because, you know, my artwork can't possibly be interesting enough to pull any significant traffic.
Another person finger-wagged me to stop distributing the Cowboy Bebop soundtrack MP3s off my site. Despite the fact that THEY'RE NOT ON THERE AND NEVER HAVE BEEN.
Grumbleumble.

Adiamante: No problem - thanks for all your help.
I'm still waiting to hear back from he.net as to whether I can use mod_rewrite there. I think I can, I just want to be sure. If so, it's back to Hurricane Electric I go.
