Flowers on the razor-wire

[mundens]

I should have posted about the book launch over the weekend. I should have posted about Conjunction. I should have posted about having spent several full-on but lovely days with my lover.

But I'm recovering from the flu, said lover has been hogging my computer (grin), I'm busy at work, and I can't see the screen properly right now because I left my glasses at home.

So instead of real content I'm passing on a couple of gems from elfs and other's :

• Best. Gygax Tribute. Evah! Not everything there is gold, but enough of it is fun to be worth scrolling thru, and some of them are real gems!



• Ten reasons to have sex. Though who really needs a reason other than Malllory's?



• Need a partner? Then go to Gizmodo and read Zoltan's advice on how to create one for yourself, on the cheap even! Reportedly the technologist in question has "married" his most advanced creation, Alice, a merging of doll and software with whom he is "pretty much monogamous with". The Gizmodo article quotes David Levy :

  "Robot sex will become the only sexual outlet for a few sectors of the population," he said in an interview in October 2007. "The misfits, the very shy, the sexually inadequate and uneducable. For different sectors of the population robot sex will vary between something to be indulged in occasionally, and only when one's partner is away from home on a long trip, to an activity that supplements one's regular sex life, perhaps when one's partner is not feeling well, or not feeling like sex for some other reason."

  Gee, am I the only one who thinks Mallory still applies here as well?

Off to meet up with my lover and another red-headed HBB now!
