Putting Up The $$$
Yes, I’ve decided to cave in and pay for barrysworld hosting of the blog.
How come?
Aside from not finding a free host that has php, I realize the work of moving the blog again is just more than I’m capable of dealing with in the next 10 days. Add to that the fact that google has that URL, and the Testzone comes up # one for 2,000,000 results of tuesday too. But, then I say to myself, “so what?” How many people in their right minds are searching the words tuesday too? But, how many of us are in our right minds?
Right minds, what the hell does that mean?
All I can say is: how can we have both artists and conservatives in there right minds? What about bicameral?
Are you going somewhere with this?
Excuse me, do you mind? Remind me to tell you about it sometime.

Talk About Real
Check out Nature; the language gene has been found!
Hello world
oops = print Noam Chomsky;
Hello Noam Chomsky
According to yesterday’s Washington Post, scientists will begin tinkering with the language gene of mice.
So?
Look out Elliott; the mice will be warning their families and friends when your on the lurk, and from us they’ll be requesting pizza and fries, The next thing you know, they’ll be telling us where to go.
Disappearance of Barrysworld
AAAAAAAAAAAacccccccccccck… free hosting on barrysworld.net, which until last week has been nothing but great, is going belly up in two weeks! Meaning put up the $, or get on down the road. Here’s what I’m looking for: free host with no pop up ads, and php support so I don’t loose all my comments. Anybody got any ideas?

Real Post
I have been in such a state; I even forgot to tear off my Gary Larson calendar pages! Then I read Gina’s post on Pinocchio. Remember… he was a puppet who wanted to be a real boy. In some way, I think we all want to be “real boys” or more precisely a real whatever. How precise is that?
What do you mean by that?
I mean that when we are children we are wanting to be adults, because we sense they have something we don’t. They have a secret, but we don’t really understand what that is. Children know there’s something they don’t know, and they think the secret will be revealed when they become real i.e. adults. Now you’re a real adult, or perhaps like me a pseudo adult, an impostor posing for photo opps in a world filled with those “others” whose secret you are still trying to decipher.
Why did you call this Real Post?
Because, I thought it was going to be about being real, but I seem to have gone off on a side track. Hmmm… maybe it is about being real. It doesn’t matter what you think you are. You are what you are. Good God, I sound like Popeye talking to Olive Oil, “I yam what I yam.” And speaking of toons, I think I’ll have a cartoon type of day today. It will be kind of like Roger Rabbit. My car will have a personality and my paint brush will do all the painting without my help, of course I’ll most likely have to clean up the mess left behind by those two crazy gals. Well I’m off; let’s just hope the brush doesn’t paint the car! Cause that would be real bad.

Tuesday Too # 25
1.) What is your favorite freeware program? If you don’t have have one you might want to check out some freeware sites. There’s still a lot of good stuff out there that’s free!
Right off I was going to point to Stata 3d, a program I list on the right of the page. However, when I clicked on the link, I find that it’s disappeared as freeware, and is no longer even their domain. Yeah you can buy it, but the free version is not to be found anywhere anymore. Makes me wonder how many other amazing freebies come and go before I’m even aware of them.
2.) Do you think the way the internet has changed the world is essentially a good thing? Why or why not?
Unequivocally yes. One of the great “good” changes is the sharing of research information quickly around the world. The sharing speeds up the research process.
3.) Is there something that’s really bothering you these days? It might be personal, political, scientific or just downright kinky. What is it?
Post your URL in the comment.

Thesis Abstract
Yes it’s finally posted here! I still don’t have the go ahead to post the entire thesis. No precedent has been set; thus no one knows who has the answer. The abstract is pretty dry reading, and has been posted for those participants who requested information on the results of the study.
How come you’re not blogging much lately?
I seem to be off kilter for some reason, and my off-line life is wearing me out, at least physically if not mentally. I’ve not even been cruising around to see what you guys are up to
