Fortunately, there's the rub,
Under hill, back of beyond.
Call to it, lost little scrub
Key the lock, set right the bond

I just added those to the poem/song fragments subpage
of my Salmon on the Thorns webpage (see below).

Wow, I vaguely remember this. 1995? I think I was surfing the net with
AOHell on a 28k dialup modem!

I don't have multiple orgasms, myself. However, I am known to be a carrier.

I posted them to pendulum mailing list (for bipolars)
in January 1995 so you can't be remembering them
unless I also posted them to alt.sex and/or alt.sex.wizards
back then and a google groups search doesn't show that,
but does show that I posted them to alt.music.s-mclachlan
in late June 2004.

I was lucky enough to have a high speed connection at
a university but my wasting a lot of time on mailing
lists and newsgroups contributed to my quitting my
first attempt at a Ph.D.

As part of the same post to pendulum I also wrote:

for unLAWful carnal knowlege
change to
for unWALLful carnal knowledge
or
for UN-lawful carnal knowledge
where the un is a french word
and the one law is LOVE

I lurked on alt.sex for a while, but ssg became my regular hangout in
the 90s. I think I'm still one of the highest postings, although
everybody pales compared to suzee, who probably posted as much as the
top ten combined.

I miss the test format from the old Usenet every time I try to read a
web forum post on my phone.
