non-emergency broadcast system

this is a test.

this is only a test.

yesterday, the master of the scruff, the compy ninja, the rock god lederer, helped me transfer my languishing web site from my crappy old provider (powweb, not recommended) to my shiny new provider (dreamhost, so far, so good).

it looks like everything has transfered pretty smoothly. if you find something that don't work, would you let me know, please?

in other news, the thing that i find most fascinating about today is not that it is a state-wide holiday for a horse race, but that in pakistan, when musharfaf went all coup-coup (is it a coup when you take over from yourself? maybe not.), who was it that stood up and rattled the cages?

the students?
the opposition parties?
the clerics?

no. it was the fucking lawyers.

what i want to know is: can we get some of them lawyers over here? thems the kind of lawyers we want.

whatever else you want to say about pakistan, i think you gotta admit they must be doing something right.

happy cup day.
