You may have noticed that the times and dates of my postings seem a bit odd. The server hosting this site is somewhere in Europe, and the truly brilliant minds behind antville have not yet completed a localization scheme for the product. They're working on it, though -- find out more at project.antville.org if you're really interested.

Meanwhile, just subtract 7 hours from any timestamp to find out when I actually posted something from here in Austin, Texas, U.S. Central Daylight-Savings Time.

Found this lying around in the electronic snippet graveyard, edited it a little, and ended up with the following untitled poem....

You and I can laugh together at the heavy heft of this thin thing: my pig of pages fatted for the lean kill in spring, to whom no farmer comes.

These verses are content to wallow in their own mud, and it is a fine thought to keep your hands clean of common poetry.

A pig in a poke—we can both find that funny.

Postings of these sorts of silly quiz-memes will probably be minimal on my part -- enough other people link them that the chances of my introducing anything new are slim to none.

Still, in the rare cases such as this one when the result of the quiz appears to actually indicate something interestingly accurate about my persona, I'll pass it on.

In this case, in the world of tarot cards...

I've always rather fancied artist Dave McKean's interpretations of the tarot, though, so here are his fool cards from The Vertigo Tarot deck and the book The Particle Tarot.
