Seasons

There are some traditions of Santa traveling with a demon/devil named Krampus. Krapus used to take naughty children away in his bag (and used to do all sorts of things to young women) but Santa chained him and makes him help with the toys.

Here is the real antichristmas in a New York City front yard...

A robot has been developed that displys self awareness:

I'm too lazy to see the antichristmas link, but does it have to do with santa and severed doll heads? It was on the news a few days ago...

ya thats it

The self aware robot link was interesting. Thanks Colonel! (I have to admit I think the doll head people are starved for attention and need to get a job to keep them busy).

That anti-christmas link... It reminds me of my christmas...

I now have an FTP server - anyone interested in a whole bunch of DVD-rips? if so, I will temporarily share the folder full of movies for your downloading pleasure (Shhhhhhh don't tell the FBI!)

Colonel, Please don't post your jokes on a public forum. The FBI may or may not get here, but RIAA is everywhere, and you can get the prof in trouble. Of course you are kidding, and would never really break the law, but people can't tell that on the Net.

BTW have you seen what happened to www.afterdawn.com? You should check it out before January first.

lol of course i was joking (it would absolutely murder my WLAN bandwidth to have people downloading 700 MB files off my computer). but I do have an FTP server, perhaps it can be useful for something, but I don't know how to integrate it into a web site.

I wish you a Happy New Year! 5 hours to go here in Sweden!!

Very Happy New Year from Canada....little less than 12 hrs
