Um Bongo site relauches, with downloads!
Way down deep in the middle of the Congo, a hippo took an apricot, a guava and a mango. He stuck it with the others, and he danced a dainty tango.
The python picked the passion fruit, the marmoset the mandarin. The parrot painted packets, that the whole caboodle landed in.

another to add to the list of should-get-around-to's. Political Theory in a Nutshell
"This, indeed, was the assumption behind ROUSSEAU's theory of the 'general will' and the 'social contract.' Thus, little harm was done in presuming all men to be the same. In hindsight, this was error. By relegating citizens to a passive role, Locke's republicanism lessens the likelihood that citizens will learn how to apply their reason in evaluating political conduct and to broaden their conception of the common good. Put another way, republicanism does not minimize the danger that citizens will rely upon uninformed opinion to guide their conduct in the private and public spheres."

Ouch! just to annoy my punk friends... RIBOFUNK: The Manifesto
"Punk was a dead music when cyberpunk SF was born, a cul-de-sac albeit with living practitioners who just hadn't gotten the message yet. The music's nihilistic, chiliastic worldview had already culminated in its only possible end: self-extinction."

Seven Vices of Highly Creative People
"I slam my fist on the table. "We need a book about the 7 Vices of Highly Creative People before the whole country ends up in a straitjacket!" Bobby agrees enthusiastically, grabs a stack of napkins and begins writing. All the years we've spent studying history and literature are finally paying off. It isn't easy. But after six hours and five pitchers we finish the job."
