OT- third hand was: Re: Debian has turned unusable.
Yea, verily, I say unto you that on this date (Mon, 12 Apr 2004 14:57:40
-0600) "Monique Y. Mudama" <spam@bounceswoosh.org> didst appear within
my Magick Viewing Screen and, being somewhat pleasantly supplicatory,
did polemicize thusly:
> On the third hand,
Since the 1993 printing of Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle's sequel to
"The Mote In God's Eye," "The Gripping Hand," a tale of three armed
aliens, that rather uncomfortable but often useful phrase, "on the third
hand," has given way in lots of arenas to, "on the gripping hand."
I know it's not Debian related, but, whatthehell, someone might be
interested and begin using it.
Otherwise, if anyone is particularly offended by this post, either flame
or bozofy me and I won't do it again.
