2nd november. word count: 22378. word count not including last year's valiant effort: 0. I reckon I have about 3 more days before it all starts getting out of hand.

I meant to post this a while ago, but I forgot.
Most ridiculous use of the internet in a television show (drama) goes to Law and Order. Two guys with the same tattoo get shot, and Julia Roberts' bloke says, hey, I know how we'll find out about this (as it's obviously a neo nazi thrill kill cult) types in "eagle" and the latin phrase - can't remember the exact one, and gets ONE hit. The people they were looking for. No online casinos or anything. So I decided to do a little experiment. I picked a latin phrase, and an animal, and off I went. This is what heppens when you do a search for "ipso facto" and monkey. The alien poetry is worth a shot... look:

The Fiendish Dr. Simian

Simian, Simian, Fish, Fish, Simian
Evolve, damned monkey. Evolve I say!
Monke, flunky, who's got the monkey?
Dr. Simian. Black Heart. Cold Hands.
Make the monkey have six arms not three.
Oh, Dr. Simian, make the monkey have red eyes, too!
Send the monkey into outer space in a capsule.
Good monkey. Nice monkey.
