recently overheard:


“It isn’t the spammers and the trolls that piss me off the most. They’re easy.
“It’s the fucking pedants that make me want to kill someone.”


[Bonus Link:] The Kryptonite story just refuses to die.
[Bonus Link:] The Scottish Wikipedia [NB: It's written in "Lallans"- the mostly unintelligible, Lowland literary style/dialect of "Trainspotting" fame. Hugh MacDiarmid, eat your heart out etc. Oi, Vey.].

The best way to support gapingvoid is to sign up to "Hugh's Daily Frickin' Cartoon" Newsletter. A new cartoon sent out every weekday morning to your inbox [RSS version here.]. A wee chuckle to start your day off right etc.

    Hey Hugh:
    I’m with you, itwould be great if the Sept. ‘04 Kryptonite incident would just fade away…….. ;)
    By the way, loved the stuff you did with BL over at “Up your Budget”!
    Happy Holidays.

    This seems to me to be a pretty good start for indie musicians wanting to make their music available on the web .. and the Terms of Service / Distribution Agreement doesn’t seem rapacious or restrictive, like many other music distribution offers to date.

    It’s the difference between giving your opinion and actually having an idea (in my opinion):
