Your Genial Hosts
Editors of ‘The Horse You Rode In On’ hail from Boston, Pittsburgh, and San Francisco.
Al has authored books (http://www.insteadofapes.com) of such brilliance as to leave the New York Times stunned, speechless, and utterly unable to review them. He is six years older than god, thus finally has time to read and is appalled to discover what has been happening on his home planet. He is afraid it might be his fault.
Barb feels free to hold forth at great length here on The Horse, but refuses to post anything on her own page (http://www.barbonia.com/) except, apparently, a picture of a fish. Which has been there for a year and a half now. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
Mark (http://www.vandine.biz/) is convinced that he will one day be replaced by a computer, and can not for the life of him understand why it is taking so damn long. In the meantime he tries to teach computers to solve puzzles, reads anything he can, draws a great dinosaur, states with conviction that Hal Jordan was the best Green Lantern, and often wonders aloud, “What would Batman do?”

Mark is right, of course: Hal Jordan *was* the best Green Lantern.

Mark’s fixation on DC disappoints me; I knew him when he was an X-Men fan . . .

Actually, JMart, he prefers zombies.

Again, surprise and disappointment.
For four years in Happy Valley, Mark insisted he preferred Mai-Tais . . . .

Guys,
I enjoyed the “Criminal Elements” table immensely (sent to me by a chemist friend). But how could you leave out the most obvious element: Cronyum. I feel it deserves to be spelled Chronyum, however, in deference to Chromium.

That’s brilliant, Ray. Don’t know how we missed that possibility, but you can be sure we’ll include it in any future update of the Periodic Table of the Criminal Elements. Care to nominate to whom in the Bush Conspiracy that elemental name should be awarded?

Hi, ulookarmless on dkos here, looking for horsefeathers.
You asked about my poems with my son. I want to make you an offer you can’t refuse!!
If you send me and email, I will gladly send you the entire volume as it exists today complete with illustrations.
You and so many others have been wonderful in my time of need and a small gesture on my part is the least I can do.
I look forward to hearing from you
Peace
CJ Campbell (ulookarmless)
