The folks at The Random Forest took note of our Dictionary of All-Consonant Words, but we wonder which of the adjectives in the first sentence applies to our work.  (Or do they all?)

Consonant-ly suprising

On my travels trough the WWW I have come across a huge amount of useless, informative, amazing and scary sites.

But I wanted to share this one with everyone.

The Dictionary of All-Consonant Words

Just a quick browse through here threw up such gems as:

qch.
interj. a casual, cough-like utterance meaning oh.
<"How’s Andy,” he asked casually. "Qch, fine,” said the other. —Dorothy L. Sayers, The Five Red Herrings.

hgkh.
n. the sound of someone struggling not to drown in a vat of fresh cream, as in the graphic novella Hearts and Minds by Scott McCloud; see also sppt, blpb.

C-rch.
n. a judicious alien Luminoth who lies silently "in a small corridor within the depths of a high fortress,” in the video game "Metroid Prime 2: Echoes.”

William Burroughs on the importance of [literally] letting go:

I saw a picture of a balloon suddenly and unexpectedly soaring and some people still holding onto the ropes connected to the balloon were suddenly jerked into the air and most of them didn't have the survival IQ to let go in time.  Seconds later they are sixty, a hundred feet off the ground.  Those who didn't let go fell off at five hundred or a thousand feet.  A basic survival lesson is: Learn to let go.  ... 

Suppose you were holding one of those ropes?  Would you have let go in time. which is, of course, at the first upward yank?  I'll tell you something interesting.  You would have a much better chance to let go in time now that you have read this paragraph than if you hadn't read it.  Writing, if anything, is a word of warning.

LET GO!

From Prof. Oddfellow's sketchbook:

Hey, anyone can be funny when he's full of wine, or vodka.  Not so easy with a mouth full of liverwurst.  But less witty?  I think not.

"He loves me not.  He loves me.  Ever sacrifice a flower, petal by petal, for love's sake?"
—Sheila Den Lawrence, If I Can Help Somebody, 2005

I had a dream recently where I looked out of the window, and saw there were six moons, each at different phases of the moon's cycle. As I gaze up at the night sky, I see the stars stretching across it, and then bursts of colour, like celestial fireworks. I wonder how I've never seen this before, and feel filled with wonder at the world.

This reminded me of the dream that I had probably last week or so.  I saw that I was on the highest building in the world and I didn't know what the time was ... evening or early morning ... it was still dark with tinge of blue ... and I saw the world round ... clouds enveloped the whole world ... and suddenly the moon in the sky fell down ... it was something that scared me a lot.
