Miscellaneous

Here's some stuff I really wanted to make available on this site, yet it consistently evades heirarchical categorization. Maddening! These odd collected bits are gathered here:

• Curious about the species from the Alien movies?
• My favorite poem: The Fish by Marianne Moore
• Harrowing tale of being trapped in a flooding elevator
• Modern Dutch person recalls that they had colonies
• Some interesting old western slang
• Feeling brave and tolerant? Check out the frightened wierdos
• Bizarre news items I can't get out of my head (yuck!):
  • Heard of the gift of the third eye? Read what happened to this person's third foot!
  • Turns out that brain found in the bed of an old pickup isn't a human brain after all.
  • Read the unimaginably horribly details behind the baby born in a latrine, who later died.
• Read some funny alternative slogans for States of the U.S.A.
• The sad tale of a delightful young girl who was bullied to death
• She is not alone because of the nature of divisive teen cliques
• Commonplace, violent, and not particularly gay, it's male-male rape
• Fellow goes on about his dog
