Very dry, cuckoos.

It would be a shame to let this ancient, creaky, spam-riddled throwback of a blog die off completely just because I'm experimenting with Substack. 

That said, I AM experimenting with Substack, and I'll be sending one out tomorrow. Subscribe here should you care to receive it:

But in the meantime, in the above spirit of keeping the old place alive, here is a little preview, in the shape of some performance indications I enjoyed from piano scores by Eric Satie. 





Assez lent, si vous le voulez bien
Rather slow, if it's alright with you.


Plein de subtilité, si vous m'en croyez
Very subtle, if you believe me.


Apparent
Show off


Sec comme un coucou
Dry as a cuckoo


Peu saignant
Slightly bloody


Les danseurs reçoivent chacun un coup de sabre qui leur fend la tête
Each of the dancers is hit with a sabre which splits his head open.

I've heard that one of Tom Lehrer's compositions has the direction that it should be played "a little too fast". But the internet doesn't seem to know anything about it, so maybe whoever told me that made it up.

I lost my job few months back and there was no way to get income for my family, things was so tough and I couldn’t get anything for my children, not until a met a recommendation on a page writing how Mr Bernie Doran helped a lady in getting a huge amount of profit every 6 working days on trading with his management on the cryptocurrency Market, to be honest I was skeptical at first but I took the risk to take a loan, and I contacted him unbelievable and I was so happy I received a profit of $15,500 with an investment of $1500 within 7 days of trading , the most joy is that I can now take care of my family, i am just sharing my testimony on here. I don’t know how to appreciate your good work Mr. Bernie Doran, God will continue to bless you for being a life saver I have no way to appreciate you than to tell people about your good services. He can also help you recover your lost funds, For a perfect investment and good return on investment contact Mr Bernie Doran on Gmail : Berniedoransignals@gmail.com his telegram : IEBINARYFX or his whatsApp : 1 ( 424 ) 285 – 0682




















All this time you were just using mainstream exploits which were famous but old. They worked well, but only with old unpatched operating systems, not the updated ones. Now it's time to move on to the next step. Our poor experience against Windows 8 and Java 7u60 left us shattered, and we realized that fully patched and updated machines with strong antivirus and firewall can be pretty hard to break into. Now we will move into the world of real pentesting, and the first step would be introduction to exploit-db.

As a proud owner of the "Too Many Songs By Tom Lehrer" songbook, I can tell you the song in question is "I Wanna Go Back To Dixie" and can be found on page 24.

Other directions in the book include "Eschatologically", "alla collo di pelle", "Infectiously", "Calypso", "Disarmingly", "Nostalgically", and "As fast as possible".

It occurs to me that it would be a fun quiz game to try to match instruction to song.

Social platforms ebb and flow
They're bought, they're sold, they come, they go
But like HMV and its faithful dog
You'll always have this lovely blog (hopefully)

Hi John,
We were very excited to receive our mysterious boxes today,  having been part of the crowd funding thing. 
However,  there's no explanation of what you should do in the admittedly unlikely event that we solve the puzzle.
Also,  by complete chance, I stumbled across the details of the event at Foyles today.  I'm going to bring along my boxed to be signed, hopefully, but there must be lots of crowd funders who don't know about this.
Also, I was wondering who did the illustrations?
Might there be a letter to crowd funders in the offing?
Regards Bev  (aka Jellywoman)

Oh dear! Was there not a booklet at the top of the box? If not, let me know, and I’ll make sure you get one!
