Speaking of Upsideclown - and there's a new one up today, as per - reminds me; Jamie the Clown received an email from a devoted fan of Ritchie Neville, re: his piece Ritchie Neville is Dead. I quote:

What are talking about? Ritchie
can't be dead! Is this some kind of joke or
something like that? I can't believe that Ritchie would be dead...
Tell me the truth...

Please...


As Matt observed, "why can't Richie be dead? Is he some kind of immortal mesoamerican river god or something?"

Of course, this is all much funnier when you imagine the poor, deluded creature, going through exactly the same set of thought processes - denial, rage, terrible poetry - as the many admirers and lovers of Richey Manic went through. And yet funnier again when you email her back saying, "I'm afraid it's true. Richard Neville is dead. But, on the bright side, no other single man had a greater impact on the balance of power during the Wars of the Roses. He went out on a high."

Susie looked up as though she sensed his urgency, and flashed Geoff a naughty, horny grin. Taking his hand away from her face, she moved it down, down to the body lying between them and placed it on the neck. Geoff was shocked - he'd never had a lady be so forward with him! Sending a quick prayer skywards for what he was about to receive, he reached forward to scoop a handful of the brains out.

To his surprise though, Susie reached out her elegant slim arm and stopped him. "Not like that - that's not how I want it..." she murmured. Geoff stopped in his tracks, confused; her actions were saying yes, but to stop it now?...

He watched as she reached back into her pink fake-fur rucksack and pulled out a shining silver spoon. Under his entranced gaze Susie brought the spoon to her decayed lips and ran her tongue down the length it.

Frozen with lust Geoff could barely respond as she leaned in close and whispered "I don't want it like that, Geoff. I want you to feed me - with the spoon..."....


It isn't easy eating brains in a climate of fear. George is here to help us practice safety for the CJD generation. Don't die of ignorance. Or of "bad brains". Be safe. Be sensible. Be a Safespooner.

Lesbian Celebrities index. Or, more correctly, "celebrities who have ever expressed an opinion on the attractiveness of another woman". I'm not quite sure whether this site is a well-intentioned attempt to present lesbianism as perfectly natural and common, a genuine if rather Catholic attempt both to celebrate out lesbians in showbusiness and pressure closeted ones, or a 14-year old with a sore wrist trying to write Real-People-Slash with real people...

I notice the faint sounds of the ingress ports opening, on schedule, as they do every 10 minutes or so throughout the day. They hover just on the edge of hearing, but I am so attuned to this environment now that I note them especially. They mark the passage of my day.

One of the interesting things about UpsideClone is that, whereas the Clown (link to Matt's rather touching recent comment on it rather than the site itself) is organised along basically social lines - although the members may not all know each other well, they all know of each other and any given person knows at least one other Clown well.

Upsideclone is more of a creative writing outreach project for technoids; a loose alliance formed on the basis of technological enablement, and having come across either the site or a site connected to it. It receives a fascinatingly broad range of submissions, from the excellent to the unbelievably bad, with no connection beyond the Internet connection. And the latest one, the Message Centre, is interesting stuff.
