Alan’s Bouquet, the aftermath
Posted by John Holbo on 09/11/07 at 07:57 AM
This has something to do with my post. Couldn’t really say what.
What it means, JH, is that The Valve is about to be sucked into the Buffyverse by Deep Mystical Forces. I suggest we all lay in a store of wooden stakes and appropriate charms.
... confused ...
AQ 489 = ALAN’S BOUQUET, THE AFTERMATH = AS A CHIP ON THE FACE OF THE WATER = ASTRONOMICAL REVOLUTION = AUTODISSOCIATION OF WATER = BEING A BODY OF A CERTAIN NATURE = COMMITTED IN SOME VAGUE WAY = COVERING UP THE ANOMOLY ON 103 = DAVID KELLDORF AND BRAD LOVEALL (AQ-257 RIDING THE SKY) = DOES PROVIDE ENCOURAGEMENT = ELECTRICALLY DRIVEN DEVICES = EXTRAPOLATION BREAKS DOWN = GOING INTO THE DEEP OF THE ZOE = HISTORICAL TURNING POINT = ILLUSION OF STRAIGHTNESS = INTERESTING NEW SPACE JUNK = LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL = MEDICALLY-SIGNIFICANT VENOM (AQ-552 AUSTRALASIAN FUNNEL-WEB SPIDER) = MIND-CULTURE COEVOLUTION = MOTIF IN HORROR AND B MOVIES = NO ORCHIDS FOR MISS BLANDISH = OBNOXIOUS AND RUDE SERVICE = ORAL TRADITION OF THE ELDERS = OUTSIDE ITS SOVEREIGNTY = PHYSICS ABSTRACTION LAYER = PROTECTION FROM DROWNING = SYMPTOM OF A CHRONIC MALAISE = TALK:ELEPHANT#PENIS_SECTION = THE EASTER BUNNY HATES YOU = THE OBJECTS ALL BUT DISAPPEAR = THE ‘OTHER’ HAS IMPULSES TOO = THE REEVE’S PROLOGUE AND TALE = TOO PRETTY NOT TO BE TRUE = UNIFIED RTP TIMESTAMP RATE = VERACRUZ DE IGNACIO DE LA LLAVE = WATER TAPS RUN DRY IN BAGHDAD = WORLD-ALTERING TECHNOLOGY.
AQ 103 = STEAM.
489 Comacina (1902 JM), Main-belt Asteroid, Discovered 1902-Sep-02 by Carnera, L. at Heidelberg; named for a little island in Lake Como in northern Italy. The name is conceivably related to the Comacine masters, the Lombard master builders of the Middle Ages who influenced the architecture of that period. Named by the discoverer at the suggestion of L. Volta.
:ONE: 489 = PATH [Sabian Symbol :: Aquarius 9° A student sits in quiet meditation and before his eyes a flag seems to form and then changes slowly into an eagle] AHMANITE I (Word Theme): Thelema, Greek for will. The will of Ptah the Opener. The will to be open to craft oneself, to sculpture oneself in the image of the divine. To walk a path, to keep a path on the Tree of Life. ENGLISH WORDS: THELEMA, GOETIA.
HEB 489 = TPTh (a drop).
I’ve been spammed before. But now I think I’m being flarfed.
