the country's getting ugly and there's more in store,
but don't blame me cause I voted for Gore,
keep choice legal, your wardrobe regal,
Chekhov wrote the Seagull, and Snoopy is a beagle,

was he there as an apple person or saving the world? speaking of apple, have you heard this story behind the apple logo? I suspect it's a myth but I wish, with 33% of my heart it were true.

When I get to it, my 'journal' will be an absolute must-read - follow my adventures abroad and other stuff. Indispensable...

Well the theory is/was (said to be an urban myth cos some dates don't add up and the original colours aren't in the right order) - that the logo is an homage to Alan Turing (father of modern computers, and a major contributor to WWII's outcome - as ya know) who, having been persecuted about his sexuality, laced an apple with cyanide and ate it/took a bite to kill himself - and voila! the logo was born.

Great story, wish it were true, but nobodies talking...

Hope you weren't expecting something more juicy, that we could bash apple users with!

So, why was he in your orifice? (Gore, not Turing) (or is that a state secret)

bah. i was hoping it would be secret nazi/arian symbolism so i could piss off apple users even more!

i don't really know why al gore was about. i think it's because he has a TV company or something, and it's a fellow yank that runs my company now.
