Scanner Darkly is a real downer, be warned.

Much darker than the film of the same name.

Wait till you get to Galactic Pot Healer.

The Transmigration of Timothy Archer is moderately weird too.

And, of course, there's the 5 volumes of short stories.

Plus the "normal" novels.

Which are moderately odd in their own way.

Afternoon

[zeitghost]

Bored.

Now.

Following that brief flurry with the tape recorder.

I suppose I could add Sunday Monday etc. to the clock display.

That would help pass the time until 16:00.

Jolly good idea. How about a button that switches it between GMT & BST? Or a time-zone dial? Or changes it to a Japanese calendar?

There's a bit that does the BST/GMT switchover.

When I say "bit", I mean, of course, that they transmit a bit rather than there being a bit of code.

If you see what I mean.

In fact, I'm not sure that I see what I mean.

Still.

It is Friday.

POETS day.

And there's a mere 9 minutes to go.

I was looking at a chunk of code that I wrote for a data terminal a year or so ago.

call prnstrng
andlw 0xff

blah blah

prnstrng
addwf PCL,w

string dt "Sunday",0

and I couldn't understand htf it worked.

It appears that "dt" gives you a whole lot of

retlw 'S'
retlw 'u'
etc.

Amazing.

Or something.

And it does work.

[zeitghost]

Anyway:



Byeeeee
