the obligitory list o' links (tm)
Once upon a time, i was a web junkie... i
would come home from class and spend half the day reading whatever i could find
on the web. that lasted about a month. nowadays, if i don't get a link to it
in the mail or it's not on /. or fm, i probably won't find out about it.
however, i have this nasty habit of creating bookmarks for everything i visit,
because i know i'll never find it again. i'd post my netscape bookmark file
here, but it's just too large... hell, even i can't find anything in
there! so, i'll just put here a bullet list of the things i hold dear or find
interesting. have no doubt that it will change very rarely. (note that i had
to delete many of these because the links were stale!)
some of my friends' pages
- once the biggest rock goddess in houston, and is now my wife,
elysse has started the
kentucky thelemites website.
- kristian, now living in nashville, has a new band,
inside
out
- if craig ever gets a page, i'll link to it here.
- neal is supposed to be setting up a music-sharing site. i'll link it
here when he gets it going. (c'mon, man, we're waiting!)
- Zabet, a.k.a.
elizabeth stewart (a very fine photographer)
- peter, a friend at work, and his wife, have
their own page. we owe peter for
some of the high quality of our remodelled bathroom.
- ARP, one of the more
marvellously eclectic UKian
(void)ers.
