FAVORITE QUOTE:
As our life is very short, so it is very miserable; and therefore it is
well that it is short. God, in pity to mankind, lest his burden should be
insupportable and his nature an intolerable load, hath reduced our state of
misery to an abbreviature; and the greater our misery is, the less while it
is like to last; the sorrows of a man's spirit being like ponderous weights,
which by the greatness of their burden make a swifter motion, and descend
into the grave to rest and ease our wearied limbs; for then only we shall
sleep quietly, when those fetters are knocked off, which not only bound our
souls in prison, but also ate the flesh till the very bones opened the
secret garments of their cartilages, discovering their nakedness and sorrow.
--- Jeremy Taylor, Holy Living and Holy Dying
At the age of five years to enter a spinning-cotton or other factory,
and from that time forth to sit there daily, first ten, then twelve, and
ultimately fourteen hours, performing the same mechanical labour, is to
purchase dearly the satisfaction of drawing breath. But this is the fate of
millions, and that of millions more is analogous to it.
--- Arthur Schopenhauer, The World as Will and Idea
ANYTHING ELSE LEFT TO SAY TO THE PEOPLE AT HOME?: Whatever you choose to
do today, the cost is the same: a day of your life.

> DID YOU GET SOME?: I have some coffee right now?
> ARE YOU GOING TO C7?: hell defuck no
> ARE YOU WAITING FOR C8?: Depends on where it is. Though I'm sure I'll enjoy all the flame wars about voting, and then how someone rigged the votes so the winning city wins, and then how the winning city is fucking it all up. And of course, the fact that we should change the name to gothapalooza. I'm a fucking visionary, aparently.

> FAVE NEW BAND: VNV Nation
> FAVE OLD BAND: Joy Division
> NOW PLAYING: The Cure: Apart... well it just switched to At Night
> FAVE MUSIC: um... I'm working on that. Typically I like very melodically structured songs. I typically veer more towards the middle ground of goth -- a lot of the soft stuff is TOO soft, and a lot of the hard stuff is too hard.
> HATE MUSIC: I'm coming to hate music less and less. Though basically I tend to despise whatever is popular in the general public sense. Only to appreciate it and latch onto it like there's nothing better 10 years later. I guess I'm pretty typical that way.
> HAPPY SONG: Disorder, Joy Division
> MOPEY SONG: Disorder, Joy Division
> INSTRUMENT: I once made it my goal to be able to play Beethoven's Ode to Joy on every instrument in existance. Though the only ones I really got any decent mastery out of before relegating them to the dustbins of my expiramental years were piano and guitar. Now I can just make my own doof doof dance music on my computer, without really needing anything other than very coordinated hearing.

> FAVE ART: Salvadore Dali. For a long time I really despised about all modern art. While I still think Pop art sucks, I'm coming to appreciate a FEW peices of modern art. But for the most part I tend to stick to the impressionist period.
> FAVE TV SHOW: Battlebots. Though I also really liked V when i was a kid.
> FAVE BOOK THIS YEAR: The entire Harry Potter series, which I finally got around to reading. Everything else has been dictionary thick technical and programming books.
> FAVE BOOK EVER: That's a toughy. Prolly Harry Potter, mainly because there came a book in my adult years that reminded me about how good it was to read as a kid. Though some other books that I really loved are Jane Emily, the entire Wrinkle in TIme series, The Martian Chronicals, Brave New World, A Little Princess, Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy series, and of course all the Little House books.

> WHERE DO YOU WISH YOU LIVED?: in a house instead of an apartment.
> WHAT IS YOUR DREAM JOB?: Basically I'd like to get paid to just sit around and create stuff. On my own time, on my own terms. Withouth any project managers. I'd like to get up one morning and write, another and make web pages, another and make music.
> WHAT DO YOU WANT CONVERGENCE TO BECOME?: I'd like it to be coming to an area that's easily accissible to a homebody like myself.
> ABORTION: you should have used birth control, or abstained instead.
Sadly, abortion is the last resort of morons and the irresponsible.
The only reason I'm glad it exists is because those people shouldn't
be breeding in the first place. We could eliminate the entire abortion
controversy by better educating our children about sex, sexually
transmitted diseases and give everyone free, or cheap access to birth
control. Then we wouldn't have to sit here deciding if life begins at
birth, when you have a functioning heart, when you sprout your first
DNA string, or when the egg and sperm do the tango.
> GUNS: People need to get out of the 1700's and start fighting for our right to bear thermo-nuclear weapons. I don't understand why someone can have a gun to protect themselves from the government, and I can't have a bomb that does the same. They're both ARMS aren't they? Personally, I don't like guns. I'm indealistic and simplistic and wished we didn't need them in the first place.
But they're not going anywhere until your average american is smart
enought to split particals.
> GOT FAITH: no not really. Occassionally, I beleive in things, but under the truer definition of "faith" no.

>GENDER: Physically (chromosomes and internal organs) female tending
towards intersex. Mentally (neurology and hormones) intersex tending
towards male. You can call me either a man or a woman and I won't much
care, but call me a girl and you'd better hope there's an ocean between
us. :p
>LOCATION: The House of Kadath, Glasgow, Scotland
>HAIR STYLE: Completely straight and down to my hips. I'm allergic to
hairdressers' shops, so I just trim the ends of it myself every six months
or so. I haven't done anything fancy with it in a while, apart from
wearing it in braids sometimes so that afterwards it falls in waves. When
I go out dancing, it's often full of lace and silk scarves.
>HAIR COLOR: Dark blonde, which looks bright gold on the rare occasions
when it's exposed to sunlight. It doesn't take dye.
>EYE COLOR: Grey, mostly obscured anyway by pupils which look like
they're on the receiving end of a permanent belladonna drip.
>BODY MODS: None. Health problems mean this is not allowed. :( Well,
unless you count the wee bit of nylon holding my right eye together; and I
do have lots of interesting scars.
>SIBLINGS: One brother, Tom, twenty five, a computer game designer in

>AVAILABLE: I guess so. To people who are attracted to those who are
"either too male or too female, never quite seeming to stop in between",
as it was once put; provided they understand that I already have a
partner, Donald, whom I've been with for eight and a half years now and
who currently needs a lot of my attention on account of his illness.
Ideally, I'd like to go out with somebody with a time machine, as this
would make it much easier to fit into my busy schedule. ;)
>CHILDREN: None. Hopefully someday, but in he meantime I'd like to take
a few years off from being a carer, should the opportunity arise.
>OCCUPATION: A whole list of them:
[1] Being a full time, permanently on-call carer for my partner.
[2] Running my own clothing design company.
[3] Doing freelance work as a writer.
[4] Doing editing work.
[5] Studying certain areas of linguistics, which is hopefully going to

>PHYSICAL HEALTH: Mixed connective tissue disease and other fun
phenomena relating to pre-natal androgenisation. Little lumps of calcium
accumulated in my skin and muscles; partially wasted muscles (luckily
caught before it got _too_ severe, and balanced out by the fact that they
were pretty tough, from swimming, beforehand); fragile skin; a sometimes
malfunctioning right knee; an occasionally jumpy heart. None of this is too
bad since I started taking steroids, but I'll have to use medication on and
off for the rest of my life, and the disease will progress anyway. I'm hoping
(not unrealistically) for medical breakthroughs in this area. Other than that,
my health is pretty good - I have a high level of cardiovascular fitness
and I have a good, strong, efficient liver. ;)
>MENTAL HEALTH: Recently checked out and officially perfect. Gosh.
>EMOTIONAL HEALTH: Pretty good, all in all. Life is stressful, so from
time to time I get stressed, but I haven't suffered lasting depression for
some time, and over the past few months I've got a lot of lifelong
problems sorted out. I'm as strong as I've ever been.
>WHEN YOU WISH UPON A STAR: I'd be, like, healthy and stuff, as would

I also have Kevin, my trusty old Amstrad PC1640, who may be simple but who
has _never_ crashed, and is perfect for my writing. There are three other
fully functioning computers in the House of Kadath - Brutus (a girl, oddly
enough), Euphrosyne and Zogroth. Then there are dozens of partially
constructed computers and bits of computer, including twenty two 486
motherboards and a Sun monitor which we can't use with anything. Who wants
to trade? :)
>WEB PAGE: http://www.triffid.demon.co.uk/jennie
>READING A.G. SINCE: (Yes, how big is *your* dick?): Mid 1994, I think.
So, seven inches. :p
>FAVORITE CONVERGENCE: The Whitby Gothic Weekend. :p
> DID YOU GET SOME?: At Whitby? Only once, actually, and she fell
asleep on me pretty quickly (even though I helpfully finished all her
drink). There have been several hundred tempting opportunities, but I have
a dreadful tendency to delay and put things off, because there's always
one more bottle to be drunk, and there's always one more party to be
attended, and there's always one more alternative cute person whom it
would be a tragedy not to at least flirt with... and then everybody else
drifts away or passes out, and I'm the only one left, catching an hour of
sleep and a litre of irn bru while waiting for the pub to open up again.
God damn those lightweights! <pout>
OTOH, arrangements made at Whitby have provided me with some
delightful visitors back here in Scotland. ;)
>ARE YOU GOING TO C7?: Nope. The bastard thing is that it would've been
easier for me to get to, and stay in, New York, than pretty much anywhere
else on that continent, but Donald is too ill for me to leave him just
now, and he won't be able to safely travel in an aeroplane for at least a
year, maybe forever (thanks to recycled air, infectious diseases, and all
that). But I'll go to November Whitby and it will be better anyway.
>ARE YOU WAITING FOR C8?: I might be, actually. Montreale is certainly
tempting. It deoends, in part, on finances (I have no idea how my career
is going to be going at that point), but mostly on Donald's health.
>FAVORITE THREADS: I like long socio-political discussions, but sadly I
don't have a whole lot of time for them. I like discussions of literature
and linguistics. Scientific threads can be fascinating when they boast
nformed contributors, but there's usually an irritating amount of ignorant
hysteria to wade through there. Sex threads are yummy, but we haven't had
a good one for a while. Recently, my favourite thread has been "Facts: I
got 'em".
>WHY ARE YOU HERE?: Because if I wasn't, yous would have to invent me.
>OTHER GROUPS READ: See, this is a tricky one, because there are
several other groups which I _theoretically_ read, but have I had time
lately? Hah! Groups which I routinely neglect are: uk.gay-lesbian-bi,
uk.people.polyamorous, rec.arts.sf.written, alt.horror.cthulhu and
rec.aquaria.freshwater.misc
>GAF MAILING LISTS: Scotgoth, except that I can't remember whether or
not I'm subscribed to it currently. And a couple of sekrit ones which I
never have time for either.
>ALT.GOTHIC IS: Mine. But you can share if you like. Provided you don't
smell too bad.
>_Part 4: Let's Get Musical!_
>
>FAVE NEW BAND: I haven't intentionally or consciously listened to more
than about ten records released since 1990. I see the occasional new-ish
band live. I liked the general sound of Devolver when they played at
Bedlam recently, but they have a tragically tacky website, so I'm not sure
I could deign to patronise them as yet - I'll see how they develop. I
liked the Horatii in the 'nineties but I guess they're old news now, and
they're no fun anymore. Sorry, I'm just totally stuck on this question.
>FAVE OLD BAND: The Dirty Three, Nick Cave, Marc Almond, Iggy Pop,
David Bowie, The Jesus and Mary Chain, Sinead O'Connor, Schumann,
Prokofiev, Shostakovich, and Rachmaninov on piano. If they don't count as
one band, they should get off their (sometimes dead) arses and form one.
>NOW PLAYING: The hum of an extremely loud fan in Laocoon's box to my
right, and the bubbling of the pump in the fishtank to my left. From
beyond the window comes the faint surging of traffic as it glides down
from the motorway.
>FAVE MUSIC: Mopeygoth stuff with a punk edge. This can be applied to a
variety of genres.
>HATE MUSIC: Techno, AOR, and the popular stuff heretically labelled
'soul'.
>HAPPY SONG: 'I Just Can't be Happy Today', the Damned.
>MOPEY SONG: 'Shivers', the Boys Next Door.
>INSTRUMENT: Allergies and pseudo-arthritis rule most instruments out
for me, but I can compose reasonably well using my keyboard, and since
I've been on the steroids I can sing again. :)
>_Part 5: Let's Get Uhhhh *Other Stuff*!_
>
>HOBBIES: Linguistics; sex; swimming; learning languages; reading;
dancing; playing with lego; drawing; painting; watching films; occasional
roleplaying and strategy board games; parties; drinking; science fiction
discussion groups; attending quizzes; eating out; nightclubbing; making
one-time-only outfits which I could never possibly sell out of everyday
household objects; visting galleries and museums; socialising in the pub;
occasional computer games; and lots of other stuff which I can't remember
offhand. <shrug>
>TIME SUCK: Currently, that would be a toss up between cutting out
small hemispherical pieces of fur fabric and sitting around for hours
checking that Donald's still breathing.
>FAVE ART: I am a great fan of performance art which happens
accidentally. Whilst I have Pre-Raphaelite and Medievalist prints in my
home, when it comes right down to it, I prefer observing people.
>FAVE TV SHOW: I can't think of anything currently available on
terrestrial UK television which I don't despise. If it is permitted for us
to refer to programmes past, my vote is for 'Twin Peaks'.
>FAVE BOOK THIS YEAR: I can't afford to buy new books very often; I
never end up buying ones which have just come out. If I take this to refer
to the book which I have most enjoyed reading for the first time this
year, that would be Italo Calvino's 'Invisible Cities', though 'Picnic at
Hanging Rock' comes a close second.
>FAVE BOOK EVER: In case anyone is completely new here and has
therefore managed to miss me going on about it far too much already,
that's James Hogg's 'The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified
Sinner'.
>FAVE MOVIE THIS YEAR: Due to being housebound most of the time, I've
only seen 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon', 'The Mummy Returns' and
'Shrek'. To my surprise, I liked the last of those the best.
>FAVE MOVIE EVER: This could change daily. There are numerous films
which I am passionate about. Today, I'll say 'Caligula'.
>FAVE COMIC: I have yet to find a comic which I really like. Many
people have shown me things which they think are wonderful, but to no
avail. Sorry.
>FAVE BOARD/CARD GAME: Card games - _especially_ trading card games -
are the Devil's work. As far as board games go, I like 'The Great Khan
Game'.
>FAVE ELECTRONIC GAME: My Romans have just totally crushed the
Carthaginians and stomped all over the Egyptians in Civ II. Next I shall
finish off those pesky Goths. I have seen their greedy phalanxes eying up
the glittering skyscrapers of Lugdunum. Another couple of turns, and
they'll slip up, and then the city of Shriekback shall be mine.
>FAVE SPORT: I like swimming, to do. Football ('soccer' to you
heathens) is also fun. All sports are boring to watch, though snooker and
pool, where one can enjoy the mathematical business of working out angles
even as a spectator, are less tedious than most.
>_Part 6: Let's Get Psychological!_
>
>WHAT SORT OF ELDERLY PERSON WILL YOU BE?: Right now I'm not sure I'll
get to be an elderly person; or that, if I do, I'll have any mobility at
all; so it's hard to say. I do intend to keep on writing up until the day
I die, since I only need my brain and
speech/hand-movement/neural-interface for that. I'm not the retiring sort,
as yous have probably guessed. I am always busy, I'm shite at relaxing by
doing nothing, and I don't expect those things to change.
>WHERE DO YOU WISH YOU LIVED?: I can think of nowhere more wonderful
than Glasgow. I have also been happy in Moscow and Amsterdam, but not
_more_ so, if you see what I mean. I need to be somewhere reasonably cold,
so most of the world is not an option. I do want to go to Antarctica, and
to Mars, before I die.
>WHAT IS YOUR DREAM JOB?: What I'm doing now (excepting most aspects
of being a carer), but with a regular wage.
>WHAT DO YOU WANT CONVERGENCE TO BECOME?: If I ever do make it to a
Convergence, I'll be going in order to see other people from alt.gothic. I
don't give a fuck about bands, and I don't want to have to wade through a
thousand strangers to find one person I know. If they want just a regular
goth festival, that's fine, but they can do it separately. It's also
important to me that Convergence should be as inexpensive as possible, to
make it as accessible as possible to all a.g. netgoths.
>ABORTION: I agree with Edinburgh's former Bishop, Richard Holloway,
who described himself as "anti-abortion but pro-choice." Abortion is an
unfortunate business which damages a lot of people, but it is still,
often, the best option available.
>GUNS: I think gun access should be restricted, but the issue of how to
restrict it in societies like the US is by no means simple. Once guns get
out of control, it's a very difficult situation to rectify without
creating a whole host of new problems. As for the business of guns always
being available on the black market, sure, that's the case, but round here
at least the black marketeers are stricter about whom they will loan guns
too than the police are about providing gun licenses; they don't (if you
will excuse the pun) want their provisioning to backfire on them.
>GOT FAITH: Plenty. No religion.
Don't believe in modern love. :p
>DOGMA (Your philosophy on life): Oh, good. For one dreadful moment I
thought this was going to be another conversation about that film, which
is surely among the worst ever made. Philosophy - well, let's see - we're
here to scrounge off the heat energy of the universe as it slowly dies;
we'll never all get along, but it's worth trying to, since that generally
makes life more pleasant for everyone; as individuals, we're all going to
die, so we might as well make the most of things while we can; life, in
general, is about weighing up these priorities and reaching sensible
compromises. That, and I shall always want more.
>YOUR BEST QUALITY: According to who? Me? How the fuck would I know? I
guess the quality which I take most pleasure in, myself, would be my
ability to be entertained even by the most distressing of ironies.
>YOUR BIGGEST FLAW: Sitting here filling in Netscrapes when I've got
work to do. :p Oh, and verbosity. Did I mention verbosity?
>_Part 7: Pendulum Swings Like the Pendulum Do_
>
>MONO POLY CELIBATE: I'm polyamorous, not that it makes much difference
to anything at the moment.
>HOMO BI GAY CONFUSED: Bisexual. Since finding out about the crux of my
biology, I have been advised that I might now consider myself to have
'been heterosexual all along', since men and women might both be
considered opposites to me; however, since I tend to be most strongly
attracted to intersex people, transvestites, transsexuals and so forth, I
guess that makes me queer twice over. ;)
>FAVORITE FLAVOR: Another one which changes daily or hourly. Right now,
I crave roasted saffron, coriander and paprika with cream, cashew flour
and just a touch of brandy.
>TOYS: What sort of toys?
I have a leopard seal called Hastur whom I usually sleep with.
He has a wife called Gretel who has long sharp claws. Hastur writes a
cookery corner for one of my magazines, in which he and his friend, a
crocodile called Angus, present recipes for various mythological and
endangered species - gourmet cooking apparently relies a great deal upon
rarity value. Then there's Susie, a rather violent black rabbit who likes
Nick Cave; and her inseparable companion (possibly girlfriend) Marlene, a
brown rabbit; and Zara, a zebra (sometimes accused of being a horse who
paints on her stripes with liquid eyeliner to make herself seem more
exciting), who was glued to Susie before Marlene came along. Jake is a
badger who is good with linux and plays a lot of Doom. Osric is an octopus
who seems to live entirely on alcohol. There are a whole host of others.
They steal my side of the bed and bitch and bite me when I try to move
them. And people think relationships with humans are bad.
>_Part 8: None of the Above!_
>FAVORITE QUOTE: Not really my thing, sorry. Can I combine these?
>ANYTHING ELSE LEFT TO SAY TO THE PEOPLE AT HOME?: "Imagination is all
I want from you." "I ain't down here for you love or your money; I'm down
here for your soul."

>Something about Ferrets and so I feel obligated to reply:
>
_Part 1: Let's Get Physical!_
NAME: Tiny Human Ferret
NICK: <kla...@clark.net>
BIRTHDAY: Moon Child, sometime in 1958
GENDER: Annoyingly Male. Not that anyone cares.
LOCATION: District of Columbia USA (suburban Maryland)
HAIR STYLE: High 'n' Tight, usually.
HAIR COLOR: Brown. A very mousy and undistiguished brown.

OCCUPATION: Professional wackjob and UNIX sysadmin.
SECRET TALENT: I can keep a secret.
_Part 2: Just Checked In to See What Condition Your Condition Was In_
PHYSICAL HEALTH: I've been better. Waiting for hepatitis "C"
to eat my liver. Other than that, excellent
breeding and modern medicine leave me looking
youngish, and feeling fairly decent after
I've had my coffee in the morning.
MENTAL HEALTH: My doctor will be the judge of that.
He laughed when I asked him. And he signed
the papers that will continue my disability
cheques.
EMOTIONAL HEALTH: See above. I believe the phrase is
"basket case of walkig wounded".
WHEN YOU WISH UPON A STAR: A nice new liver grown from my own
stem-cells harvested from a therapeautic
cloning experiment gone right would
be nice for starters. But the
Radical Religious idiots in Congress have
just illegalized my hopes for a life not
spent on anti-rejection drugs.

_Part 7: Pendulum Swings Like the Pendulum Do_
MONO POLY CELIBATE: Well, if it weren't for the damned hepatitis
just communicable as hell, I would like nothing
more than to spend the evening chatting up some
unutterably cute and fashionable 20-ish femme.
Things being as they are, I'm celibate and
generally ignore said femmes since they either
seem to think I'm hitting on them, or are
upset that I'm not trying to hit on them, or
are driving me to utter distraction with
trying to ignore their obvious attractiveness
and fashion sense.
HETRO BI GAY CONFUSED: Straight as they come. Experimented as a kid
but really, I only like women. Life is hell.
FAVORITE FLAVOR: Female, slim to muscular, eating disorders
on either extreme don't interest me, though

MENTAL HEALTH: Yeah, right. I've read Catch-22.
EMOTIONAL HEALTH: Are you trying to imply something? That's so like you.
You'll see. You just wait. You don't know what I did. You'll see.
WHEN YOU WISH UPON A STAR: There's about a 1 in 3 chance it's actually
Venus. These days it's probably Mars.

the clicking keyboard. Now Tetsab has come downstairs and she's playing
Andrew Lloyd Webber songs on the organ. :)
FAVE MUSIC: Very, very serious, and very, very silly.
HATE MUSIC: I don't know if I *hate* any music. Just about any music is at
least *interesting*, just because someone decided to make it for some
reason or other.

This is being written on an Athlon 600 running Win2k which is
primarily a multimedia/games/graphics box.
I have a K6-2 350 almost completed (needs a new motherboard, got
everything else) which will run Linux (SUSE) and be an Apache
webserver, and possibly news/mail server. A half-built p-100 which
will probably be a mail server if the K6-2 box isn't; or maybe a
firewall. A PowerMac 7100/80 AV which will run mkLinux once it's
released; and which i have no idea what to do with.
I also have a couple of 680x0 Macs which i need to pick up from an
aquaintance; which will be turned into linux-based servers of some
sort.
I also have a Mac SE, Apple ][c, and the remains of an old IBM PS/2
Model 30 286, which was the first computer i owned.

Babylon 5, baby.
Farscape
Invader Zim
Alien Nation (damn, i hope they release this on DVD)

Monty Python's Flying Circus
The Muppet Show

Yay! My favorite-ist!
>A little change this year... You don't have to cut out my replies.
So where -are- your replies, hmm?
_Part 1: Let's Get Physical!_
NAME: Heather
NICK: to the 'rents and friends at home - Heado; here - Stellar
BIRTHDAY: 3/23/74
GENDER: She-Ra
LOCATION: Atlanta, GA
HAIR STYLE: long, straight, w/ bangs
HAIR COLOR: burgundy w/ black ends
EYE COLOR: varying shades of green, sometimes teal
BODY MODS: 3 tattoos, 3 hoops in each ear
SIBLINGS: nope, I'm a brat
AVAILABLE: er...yuh. Accepting applications.
CHILDREN: someday maybe a real one; for now, I have an owl
OCCUPATION: Still an accounting-clerical-bookkeeper extraordinaire
SECRET TALENT: Ooo, I have several of these. :P Let's see....Radio
music - I can sing along with and identify 97% from any given station,
with an emphasis on 80s music (strange talent there being able to tell
you the year it came out). And I can twirl a rifle pretty damn well.
Oh, and I can sell you the shirt off your own back. ;)
_Part 2: Just Checked In to See What Condition Your Condition Was In_
PHYSICAL HEALTH: Feh. Should I even -begin-? No, I think I'll just
leave it at this - I'm usually in pain or discomfort -somewhere-
MENTAL HEALTH: all's cool there
EMOTIONAL HEALTH: uh...well, the elevator can rise to the penthouse or
hit the basement in 0.3 seconds
WHEN YOU WISH UPON A STAR: I'm not stupid enough to divulge that here
_Part 3: Let's Get Digital!_
COMPUTER: 566 Celeron home-built jobbie that crashes when a site
starts playing music, and which gives me the Grey Box of Illegal
Operation Doom occasionally when I've done nothing but turn it on
WEB PAGE: http://www.mindspring.com/~heado
READING A.G. SINCE: (Yes, how big is *your* dick?): reading since
August '00, posting since October '00
FAVORITE CONVERGENCE: *snort*
DID YOU GET SOME?: um...probably at home while several were going
on, yes
ARE YOU GOING TO C7?: No.
ARE YOU WAITING FOR C8?: No.
FAVORITE THREADS: polls, sex, music...any that give me advice when I
need it
WHY ARE YOU HERE?: my answer last time was "to pretend I'm being
social", but now my reasons are: boredom b/c my Real Life is lacking;
a place to vent my thoughts; and if needed, a place to feel better
about something that troubles me
OTHER GROUPS READ: a.g.p., uk.people.gothic (where I pretty much just
delete)
GAF MAILING LISTS: a couple of Atlanta goth lists (where I pretty much
just delete)
ALT.GOTHIC IS: a soundboard; a journal; therapy; a soap opera
_Part 4: Let's Get Musical!_
FAVE NEW BAND: Hang on, I'm hungry for the umpteenth time today...
OK, I have Count Chocula again. Now what was the question? New band?
Bah. I'm stuck in the 80s.
FAVE OLD BAND: Mmm..can't narrow that down to just one. I have five:
Depeche Mode, Ministry, NIN, PiL and Duran Duran
NOW PLAYING: *crunch, crunch*
FAVE MUSIC: new wave 80s and industrial
HATE MUSIC: country, modern rap
HAPPY SONG: Oh dear. There are many. The first that popped to mind,
though, is "Pop Muzik" by M. Others popping up: "Homosapien" - Pete
Shelley, "Nothing" - DM, "Eighties" - Killing Joke, "That's
Entertainment" - The Jam, "Two Worlds Collide" - Inspiral Carpets,
"Faith Collasping" - Ministry, "Everyday Is Halloween" - Ministry
MOPEY SONG: The Cure - "Pictures of You"
INSTRUMENT: I have been told I "excel" with the use of my mouth. :D
_Part 5: Let's Get Uhhhh *Other Stuff*!_
HOBBIES: selling on eBay, photography, watching movies, driving,
singing, shopping for toys and things to decorate with, loitering on
the 'net...I'd include travelling and sex, but I don't get to do them
as often as necessary to consider them a hobby :)
TIME SUCK: eBay and a.g.
FAVE ART: Dali and photographic art like Man Ray
FAVE TV SHOW: I don't watch TV. Well, rarely. The default channel is
the History Channel though, which rocks. And I must admit, my
parents' devout watching of "Big Brother 2" at dinner has gotten me
roped up in that.
FAVE BOOK THIS YEAR: Harry Potter & the Prisoner of Azkaban
FAVE BOOK EVER: Uh...well, I reckon I'd have to say ditto. I don't
read much.
FAVE MOVIE THIS YEAR: Haven't seen too many this year. Nothing stands
out from 2001, but I saw "Strange Days" a couple weeks ago, and that
rocked. I have a funny feeling that the best is yet to come (aka "Jay
& Silent Bob Strike Back" and "Harry Potter")
FAVE MOVIE EVER: Empire Strikes Back
FAVE COMIC: N/A
FAVE BOARD/CARD GAME: Scrabble
FAVE ELECTRONIC GAME: Feh. Does Wheel of Fortune, Jeopardy and
Scattergories on the computer count? I like word games.
FAVE SPORT: I hate sports. Mmm....how bout nakey contact sports?
_Part 6: Let's Get Psychological!_
WHAT SORT OF ELDERLY PERSON WILL YOU BE?: Sitting in my rocking chair
on my porch or in my library doing...something, while my man sits next
to me in his chair reading. I'd say travelling all over, but I intend
to do that way before I'm elderly. I dunno; I don't like this
question. I'm gonna be an old maid, allright?! *sobs* Look, now
you've made me cry.
WHERE DO YOU WISH YOU LIVED?: Mmm, London. For a little while. But
I think here is where I belong; it's my home. It's just too fucking
hot here. So somewhere cold for a little while would be nice.
WHAT IS YOUR DREAM JOB?: photographer for National Geographic
WHAT DO YOU WANT CONVERGENCE TO BECOME?: I don't give two shits.
ABORTION: if need be
GUNS: just don't point it at me; otherwise, I don't care what you do
with it
GOT FAITH: I do.
DOGMA (Your philosophy on life): *sigh* Well, I think everything
happens for a reason. And my grandmother used to say, "When in doubt,
don't", and that's usually correct. I also believe if there's a will,
there's a way, and if there's something you want, go get it,
regardless of what people might think of you. Life's too short to be
stubborn. Gah, I'm a walking, breathing cliche.
YOUR BEST QUALITY: Gee, but there's so many. :P I'd have to say
being very thoughful and generous.
YOUR BIGGEST FLAW: Gee, but there's so many. ;) Being
skeptical/untrusting.
_Part 7: Pendulum Swings Like the Pendulum Do_
MONO POLY CELIBATE: one at a time, please
HOMO BI GAY CONFUSED: straight, but curious...wonders what breasts
feel like that aren't mine (did I just say that out loud? *blush*)
FAVORITE FLAVOR: Chocolate. Er...vanilla? -- hey, I think these last
two are trick questions. :)
TOYS: Action figures and 80s toys. I collect.
Oh, and a plug if the real thing isn't available. Throw in something
that vibrates on a really special day.
_Part 8: None of the Above!_
FAVORITE QUOTE: Hmm...currently: "Fill my pulsing loins."
ANYTHING ELSE LEFT TO SAY TO THE PEOPLE AT HOME?: No. But damn, this
took me -forever- to do. Now I need a nap.
~Stellar

READING A.G. SINCE: (Yes, how big is *your* dick?): Christ. Lurking since
ABOUT '94. First posted as The Lighthouse Keeper in LATE '95.
FAVORITE CONVERGENCE: Yeah. Right. ;)
DID YOU GET SOME?: Yep, and while I was, NEVER ONCE was I thinking
"Man... I wish I were at C* instead..." ;)
ARE YOU GOING TO C7?: Not if you PAID ME to cover it.
ARE YOU WAITING FOR C8?: That depends...
FAVORITE THREADS: The ones where people shoot their mouths off about how
important they are or how much more they know about any given subject than
someone else does.
WHY ARE YOU HERE?: Because I'm still stalking Oddlystrange...
OTHER GROUPS READ: CLASSIFIED
GAF MAILING LISTS: I'm so goth that NO ONE KNOWS IT. I'm far more valuable
to what's left of the subculture incognito and under cover...
ALT.GOTHIC IS: Same as it ever was, IMO...

though... ;P

NOW PLAYING: VAST, "Pretty When You Cry"

HATE MUSIC: Anything with the word "hip," "hop," or "urban" used to describe

_Part 5: Let's Get Uhhhh *Other Stuff*!_

_Part 6: Let's Get Psychological!_
WHAT SORT OF ELDERLY PERSON WILL YOU BE?:
The old man with the blanket over his legs screaming "Where's my Star
Trek!?!" when the cable goes out at his nurse, whom I picture to look
something like Queen Latifah...

Either Atlanta, Georgia or Toronto, Ontario. Calgary might be nice as well
though. <shrug>
WHAT IS YOUR DREAM JOB?:
Jennifer Connelly's masseusse (sp?).
WHAT DO YOU WANT CONVERGENCE TO BECOME?:
A dark Jedi.
ABORTION:
I've never had one, nor have I ever agonized over the personal, physical or
emotional implications attached to having one. In that regard, I personally
feel that I'm lucky because it strikes me as an absolutely horrific
experience that no one would just CASUALLY choose to undergo.
Suffice to say I find it comforting that it can be performed in a safe,
sterile environment with the overall health of the woman taken into
consideration, and I don't think that will be the case in the event someone
attempts to criminalize the procedure.
GUNS:
I believe that if a malignant entity enters my home that I maintain the
right and, in fact, the responsibility to terminate and/or neutralize that
entity - or both, as the case might require - by any and all means available
to me including but not necessarily limited to the use of deadly force and
therefore, I am equipped appropriately to perform such a
termination/neutralization...
... but I, for one, didn't mind waiting two weeks for it to all be legal an'
shit.
GOT FAITH: Recovering Catholic.
DOGMA (Your philosophy on life):
Too complex to get into here. Suffice to say we are what we learn to need
and what we experience, and not a whole lot more.
YOUR BEST QUALITY:
My honesty.
YOUR BIGGEST FLAW:
My bullshit tolerance and resultant temperance in regards to stupidity,
which I really should accomidate in some cases...
_Part 7: Pendulum Swings Like the Pendulum Do_
MONO POLY CELIBATE: I believe that all three have their merits... but
celebacy's for monks and nuns.
HETRO BI GAY CONFUSED: Whatever makes your freak flag fly as long as you can
live with yourself afterwards, right?
FAVORITE FLAVOR: Godiva chocolate.
TOYS: I have a giant, bean-bag style Cthulhu named "His Majesty"...
_Part 8: None of the Above!_

PHYSICAL HEALTH: PCOS, which contributes to a handful of more minor
ailments. however, it is a sort of creeping sludge; it will worsen
with time.
MENTAL HEALTH: Borderline manic depressive, which manifests primarily
these days as marked activity cycles, as i've learned to (mostly)
control the emotional symptoms. Major events (such as c*) always seem
to throw this right down the ol' bathatch, however - a phenomenon i have
yet to fully understand.
EMOTIONAL HEALTH: very, very strange indeed.
WHEN YOU WISH UPON A STAR: Someoneone's stapled my bits back in place
and distrbuted a week's worth of days of surcease to those who most need

"who the heck are you?" I would love to see local bands and even
better, bands made up of a.g posters! I would like it to be in one

GUNS: No. Give me a knife.
GOT FAITH: In humanity, yes. Otherwise, NO. Especially "Organized by

me to explore the options.

works for those intense "I Need It and I Need It NOW!!!!" times. I've
tried many objects over time... (but not the end Becky used down
there... elsewhere, yes.)
_Part 8: None of the Above!_
FAVORITE QUOTE: Is the poem by Robert Frost about the path lest trodden.
ANYTHING ELSE LEFT TO SAY TO THE PEOPLE AT HOME?: Lots of things.

crooked walking stick at the neighbourhid kids. They will dare each other

get to work mostly from home. yay.
WHAT DO YOU WANT CONVERGENCE TO BECOME?: less big. less cranky.
ABORTION: it's going to happen anyway. i loathe the thought of young women

what is right for everyone else. keep your religion out of my uterus, eh?

_Part 2: Just Checked In to See What Condition Your Condition Was In_
[Nick Cave's cover of this with Die Haut is one of my favourite songs.
I know the original was used on "The Big Labowski" soundtrack. Who
(else) recorded it ?]
PHYSICAL HEALTH: Okayish. -Perpetual sticky cough.
MENTAL HEALTH: Periodically stressed to the point where my shoulders
stop working.
EMOTIONAL HEALTH: Somewhat tetchy at the moment.
WHEN YOU WISH UPON A STAR: One week's worth of peace and quiet.
_Part 3: Let's Get Digital!_
COMPUTER: C-Lab Falcon Mark X.
WEB PAGE: I killed it. It might return one day.
READING A.G. SINCE: (Yes, how big is *your* dick?): Autumn '95
FAVORITE CONVERGENCE: None
DID YOU GET SOME?: N/A
ARE YOU GOING TO C7?: No
ARE YOU WAITING FOR C8?: No
FAVORITE THREADS: Tend to pick out the more literate posters
at the moment.
WHY ARE YOU HERE?: I'm not, at least not as often as I'd like.
At its best, it provides intelligent debate
an humour.
OTHER GROUPS READ: Include comp.sys.atari.st
GAF MAILING LISTS: A few are merely downloaded, none are read.
ALT.GOTHIC IS: Plauged by Convergence threads.
_Part 4: Let's Get Musical!_

things, e.g. Tom Lehrer and the Mel Brookes Hitler
Rap.
HATE MUSIC: 1) Music to hate by: Early Killing Joke, Cubanate.
2) Music to hate: Horrid, glib, anthemic synth-pop.
Anything vaguely dready or crustified.
HAPPY SONG: Anything by the Bonzo Dog Band.

INSTRUMENT: It's been a mercifully long time since I last murdered
"When the Saints go marching in" on a harmonica.
_Part 5: Let's Get Uhhhh *Other Stuff*!_
HOBBIES: Going to gigs, messing around with fractals and
graphics and tie collecting.
TIME SUCK: Right now, the wretched hour-and-a-quarter commute
to work. Left the lab at seven today, the bloody
Tube was flooded. The bus would have been bearable,
but some little pile of fertilizer blew up my stop
the other week. I got home at nine. I keep meaning
to get around to buying a scooter, ideally a Piaggio
Super Hexagon in silver, but I could deal with an ET4
or a Typhoon at a pinch. I can't really afford it,
and I might end up as a long purple stain on the
Uxbridge road, but I don't care.
FAVE ART: Naum Gabo, Barbara Hepworth, Max Ernst, Georg Grosz.
FAVE TV SHOW: None at the moment.
FAVE BOOK THIS YEAR: "Burning your boats", a collection of Angela

WHAT SORT OF ELDERLY PERSON WILL YOU BE?: I'd quite like to end up
like John Le Mesurier. That probably means very little to most of you.
WHERE DO YOU WISH YOU LIVED?: Iceland.
WHAT IS YOUR DREAM JOB?: I really miss electrocuting things
for money.
WHAT DO YOU WANT CONVERGENCE TO BECOME?: There for "The Kids".
ABORTION: Quality of life *might* be sacred, individual lives
are not. Life that has developed takes precedence
over life that hasn't.
GUNS: Just watch the number of shootings rise over here
rise after the knee-jerk ban on hand-guns. *Why*
can't *I* have a gun ? I know who needs shooting.
I want one ! Me me me me ME !
GOT FAITH: No. The nearest I can imagine to a heaven is the
platonic world where all the mathematics lives.
DOGMA (Your philosophy on life): Changes with the frequency of a
weather vane at the moment. I think any choices of what it's all for
are completely arbitrary.
YOUR BEST QUALITY: I guess I can make people laugh.
YOUR BIGGEST FLAW: Too slow to express love and anger.
_Part 7: Pendulum Swings Like the Pendulum Do_
MONO POLY CELIBATE: I'm not entirely sure, but the "other 'alf"
has a wife.

water.

computer ?

FAVORITE QUOTE: "Wake up ! You've been very sick, but now
you are well again and there's work to be
done." -Kurt Vonnegut, TimeQuake.
ANYTHING ELSE LEFT TO SAY TO THE PEOPLE AT HOME?: I really should try
and talk to you more often.
Have Fun,
"Augeas"
