    And this at our State Library, hallowed bastion of literacy!

    I think this may actually reveal the region of origin of the software running the display. But if File 1 not exists, what hope is there?

    Maybe File 2 will be our only hope?

    Existence, well what does it matter?
    I exist on the best terms I can.
    The past is now part of my future,
    The present is well out of hand.

    Query to Haiku buffs:
    If ‘dog’ has one syllable, how many does ‘dogs’ have?

    It depends, Hovean, on whether you’re writing it in Japanese or English. Clearly, dog and dogs both have one syllable, but ‘inu’ has two ‘on’.

  11. I quickly slapped in a Satre quote, existence and all that, without really noticing how banal it was.

    I used to work with a girl who pronounced ‘banal’ to rhyme with ‘anal’. Made me snigger every time (which, admittedly, was not that often).

  13. Snuff, you should have used the reply button rather than comment. (Trying to get people to use new feature) That way your reply to a comment will stick with the comment, rather than be further down the list.

    Heath Ledger just won the Oscar

    brace yourselves for an egregious outpouring of confected emotion incongruously accompanied by ocker patriotism.

    I know Glen Milne isn’t anything to do with Perth but he has put the nurry to shame in this column.

    Tip for factional hacks – don’t waste your time working the press gallery with leaks and favours; just email your information to Glenn Milne & he’ll print it in our national press….
