I'll trade: either unsubscribe me or send me the "in" definition
of "Slack" and "a Bob; to be a Bob; etc.", please.
Is Bill Clinton "Slack", or is he a "bob" doing Slack things?

Sorry Jim, my Densei DPB2001 portable multiformat CCD barcode scanner
rejected your code heartlessly.
Perhaps you should try a different format, you might be able to get
an ANSI formatted barcode 39 to scan, if not try 2-by-5. You wouldn't
be able to encode alphanumerics then, though.
Happily tatooing innocent unsuspecting pinks,

It's been years since I stopped by, but there used to be a pizza place down by
the river, Price Mongo's Planet. You can't miss it if it's still in operation:
an intergalactic pantheon was painted on the side of the building, and there
were often robed droids in the street drumming up business.
Prince Mongo was a local who believed he had been sent to Earth as ambassador
for the planet Zambodia. He spent a good deal of time annoying the local
government, utilities, and his neighbors in the high rent district, and made
regular court appearances wearing nothing but diapers and a cape. The parties
were mind-bending. I have a photo of his front yard and its slackful contents:
coffins, stacks of tires, dismembered mannequins, etc. I was told he made his
millions by taking out an insurance policy against going insane, and then
going insane, though I've never been able to verify this....
