Pussy. I'm really really good with my hands and a woman's vagina. I'm sure I'd be reasonably good with cock as well, being a sensual being, but I am frustratingly hetero.

In "Portland Meetup!"

I'm going to post this in here just in case anyone happens to read it. I'm doing something really cool in my cafe this week. Here's the excerpt from the press release. "The Equator Cafe is hosting a five day open source programming flashmob and we have chosen the GPL'd Democracy TV (http://www.getdemocracy.org) as our project. We are centrally located in Portland, OR, and are within immediate proximity to the Oregon Convention Center and OSCON 2006. Take a break in between sessions and come down to contribute code. The event will be filmed and compiled into a short video to be broadcast on Democracy TV at the end of the week. " If any monkeys read this and are in town, come and code. (:

In "Hyperinflation "

A well written and comprehensive article from Haaretz, summarising Clark's and Petrov's views. The single best graph I've found of the importance of oil in the world currency market:

1) January 1999: launch of the euro. 2) January 1999 ­ Oct 2000: euro in "bear market² versus the dollar. 3) November 2000: Iraq switches oil sales to euro. Euro's fall versus the dollar is halted. 4) April 2002: senior OPEC representative gives speech in which he states that OPEC would consider possibility of selling oil in euros. 5) April 2002 to May 2003: euro in "bull market" versus the dollar. 6) June 2003: US switches Iraqi oil sales back to dollar. 7) June 2003 to September 2003: euro falls versus dollar. 8) October 2003 to early February 2004: statements by Russian and OPEC politicians/officials that switch to euro for oil sales is being considered.

I can't help feeling like the world of High Fashion is a neverending spiral of pompous self-importance and impenetrable self-reference. Eh? I know nothing about high fashion. The imagery in these pictures was fascinating, beautiful, and at times socially poignant. Thanks Tracicle, great post.
