|
|
Are you longing for a good, home cooked meal in a family setting
|
|
Each day as I go home I realize what a blessing it is not to
|
|
live in a dormitory or an apartment, but in a house with my
|
|
family. Of course, it's hard to make ends meet (most months
|
|
they don't), so my wife Lee and I are considering opening our
|
|
home to small groups of hungry CMU students for a good, solid
|
|
evening meal in exchange for (you may have guessed) a reasonable
|
|
donation to our grocery bill. For information and appointments
|
|
contact me or call Lee at 381-5519.

Subject: Family style TV
|
|
|
|
Are you longing to watch the Super Bowl and Charlie's Angels in
|
|
glorious full color? As I enter my office each day, I realize what a
|
|
blessing it is not to have just a cheap, tinny AM radio, but to have
|
|
a costly color TV. Of course, on a faculty member's salary, it's hard
|
|
to make ends meet (especially with a hungry Eldorado to feed), so my
|
|
secretary and I are considering opening my office to small groups of
|
|
well-behaved video-starved CMU students for a good solid evening of
|
|
viewing pleasure in exchange for (of course) a reasonable donation to
|
|
Neiman-Marcus for my monthly TV payment. For tickets, contact Cynthia
|
|
at X2591--don't send netmail, I wouldn't want to be accused of
|
|
misusing ARPA facilities for personal gain. After the movie, we'll
|
|
all go over to Slack's place for dinner.

Subject: Saving on Utility Bills
|
|
|
|
Now that precedent has been set:
|
|
As I enter my home each day, I realize what a blessing it is to have hot water
|
|
available at the turn of a tap. Of course, on a staff member's salary, it's
|
|
hard to pay those winter utility bills, so I'm considering opening my shower to
|
|
small groups of well-versed CMU C.S. coeds who believe, as I do, that our
|
|
natural resources should be conserved--in exchange, of course, for a reasonable
|
|
contribution toward my utility bill. For appointments, leave your number with
|
|
anyone in the Engineering Lab and we'll get back to you. If we're still up to
|
|
it after the shower, we can go watch TV at Jensen's.

From: Mark Faust <Mark.Faust at CMU-10A>
|
|
As I return home to my house every day, I realize what a blessing it
|
|
is to not have to live in a wholesome family style environment, but
|
|
to enjoy instead a truly depraved, immoral and hedonistic life. Of
|
|
course it's hard to afford the alkaloids and hallucinogens to support
|
|
such an existence, so my housemates and I are considering inviting
|
|
small mobs of suitably tainted and unruly CMU students over for a
|
|
good sordid evening of sexual perversion and drug abuse in exchange
|
|
for (naturally) a reasonable donation to our wholesaler. For
|
|
reservations and information give Andrea or myself a call at
|
|
421-2577. After regaining consciousness we can scope out the pretty
|
|
colors on Doug's TV set. (Who needs to eat?)

Subject: 3M glue
|
|
|
|
3M, under the Scotch brand name, manufactures a fine adhesive for art
|
|
and display work. This product is called "Craft Mount". 3M suggests
|
|
that to obtain the best results, one should make the bond "while the
|
|
adhesive is wet, aggressively tacky." I did not know what "aggressively
|
|
tacky" meant until I saw a recent notice in the Bboard.

|
As I swim through the warm lagoon each day, I realize what a blessing
|
|
it is to live in such serenity, solitude, and splendor. The gentle
|
|
azure seas, softly glistening beaches, and waving emerald fronds carry
|
|
me back to the rocking cradle of my youth, long before my glacial era
|
|
at CMU. I'm in awe of my balmy home each waking moment; I thank the
|
|
gods for their cooling afternoon showers no less than I praise my
|
|
lovely wives--all seven of them--for the constant attention they rain
|
|
upon me. Unfettered by the mores of white men, we laugh and love each
|
|
sun-drenched day away.
|
|
.
|
|
I'd share this, you know, if I thought it could stay this way.
|
|
But sex and drugs and rock & roll, why, they'd bring our blackest day.

After reading the bboard postings for the last 12 hours, I have
|
|
to ask: was there a full moon last night???
