    I thought I found something better than Napster, something that wasn't illegal, and it still gave me an opportunity to listen to unsigned bands. But I guess all the RIAA cares about is making money, huh?

    Level On The Inside
    Dovetail Joint
    If you sit me down, to explain
    all the trials you've endured
    Around and around, the refrain
    rings the same each time it's heard
    Entertain the notion, that the only thing I hear
    Is the crack of a smile, in a face that ain't so sincere

    When measuring out your quality
    It is only as deep as your modesty

    As your insides fall to pieces
    Shattered by the silent treatment
    Things are only fragile till they break
    Feigning your humility
    It only serves to weaken the
    most common observations that you make
    Drown me out in conversation
    Surf a wave of provocation
    Wash away my interest in your wake

    I think you can, reach a place
    where the impetus is pure
    You'll understand, a disgrace
    is the thing that makes us feel...
    "Level on the inside, level on the outside"
    I'm content to know it
    I don't need to show it

  10. Interesting on When PC Still Means 'Punch Card' · · Score: 0, Redundant

    In the electromechanical tabulator era, long before electronic computers, IBM locked up Herman Hollerith's patents on the punch card. This deprived competitors of access to the medium in which the vast majority of machine-processed documents were originated and maintained. Remington Rand, which acquired the UNIVAC computer family from the Eckert-Mauchly Computer Corporation, had a well-established line of tabulating machinery that dodged the IBM Hollerith patents by using 90 column cards with round holes, punched by mechanical punches that punched the entire card at once (and hence allowed correction of errors before the card was punched, unlike IBM gear where one quickly learned, "You can't erase a hole".) Once UNIVAC obtained patents on the key technologies of electronic computing, they were able to license these patents to IBM in return for the rights to the 80 column Hollerith card (which, in retrospect, was not a terribly good idea, strategically speaking), and the Hollerith card became the mainstream input medium for UNIVAC computers.
    But if you've designed your whole corporate data processing system around 90 character records, it's very difficult to just lop off the last 10. Early adopters of Remington Rand tabulators and UNIVAC computers continued to soldier along with 90 column cards well into the 1970's. Here's an example I punched in 1972 on a 1930's vintage Remington Rand keypunch while I was employed at Vickers division of Sperry Rand in Troy, Michigan, in the United States.

    Set Adrift on a Memory Bliss

    The camera pans the cocktail glass,
    behind a blind of plastic plants;
    I found the lady with the fat diamond ring.
    then you know I can't remember a damn thing.
    I think it's one of those de ja vu things,
    or a dream that's tryin' to tell me something.
    Or will I ever stop thinkin' about it.
    I don't know, I doubt it.
    Subterranean by design,
    I wonder what I would find if I met you,
    let my eyes caress you,
    until I meet the thought of Missess Princess Who?
    Often wonder what makes her work.
    I guess I'll leave that question to the experts,
    assuming that there are some out there.
    they're probably alone, solitaire.
    I can remember when I caught up
    with a pastime intimate friend.
    She said, "Bet you're probably gonna say I look lovely,
    but you probably don't think nothin' of me."
    She was right, though, I can't lie.
    She's just one of those corners in my mind,
    and I just put her right back with the rest.
    That's the way it goes, I guess.

    Baby you send me
    Set adrift on memory bliss of you

    Careless whisper from a careless man,
    a neutron dance for a neutron fan;
    marionette strings are dangerous things,
    I thought of all the trouble they bring.
    An eye for an eye, a spy for a spy,
    rubber bands expand in a frustrating sigh.
    Tell me that she's not dreaming.
    She's got an ace in the hole,
    it doesn't have meaning.
    Reality used to be a friend of mine,
    'cause complete control, I don't take too kind.
    Christina Applegate, you gotta put me on.
    Guess who's piece of the cake was Jacc Bond
    She broke her wishbone and wished for a sign.
    I told her whispers in my heart were fine.
    what did she think she could do?
    I feel for her, I really do.
    And I stared at the ring finger on her hand,
    I wanted her to be a big PM Dawn fan,
    but I had to put her right back with the rest.
    That's the way it goes, I guess.

    Baby you send me...
    Set adrift on memory bliss of you
