the eelful hovercraft

I hate when I’m so busy that I don’t have time to write, and I hate it even more when I have to put a placeholder post like this, just because I don’t have the time to test what would the machinery of the hovercraft do if there were no August entries. My current situation can be pretty much sumed up by the following, shamelessly stolen from alt.ascii-art:

             __.............__             
     .--""```                 ```""--.     
      `:--..___             ___..--:'      
        \      ```"""""""```      /        
      .-`  ___.....-----.....___  '-.      
    .:-""``     ~          ~    ``""-:.    
   /`-..___ ~        ~         ~___..-'\   
  /  ~    '`""---.........---""`        \  
 ;                                       : 
; '::.   '          ~     .:'    _.       :

 :    ':          (}     \||D            ; 
  \.:'.:':.     | /\__,=_[_]            /  
   \ ':.     ~  |_\_  |----|      `    /

      '-._':'   |  /_ |    |  `'-_.-'      
         (``''--..._____...--''``)         
          `"--...__     __...--"'          
                   `````                   

Also, spotted today on pl.comp.os.advocacy:

shot@chastell:~$ curl -Is georgewbush.com | grep Server
Server: Microsoft-IIS/6.0

shot@chastell:~$ curl -Is johnkerry.com | grep Server
Server: Apache/1.3.27 (Unix)  (Red-Hat/Linux) PHP/4.1.2

Not that I’m really surprised, no. :o)
