Musical Orgy

No, I haven't been having group sex to music, but, thanks to digital satellite TV, I have just seen Mozart's Magic Flute from La Scala, followed by a group I'd never heard of before called Bela Fleck and the Flecktones. I'd always thought that a banjo was just an instrument in Country & Western music that went wang-dick-a-dick-a-dick-a-wong-dang-a-wick-a-wocka, but this guy makes poetry out of it! And if anyone can tell me what instrument that guy in dreadlocks plays, I'll be very grateful.

Totally off-topic ...
It is now two in the morning. I finished hapkido at nine o'clock. I was just going to put my dobok (uniform) away when I noticed it was still wet through with sweat! Somehow I feel a strange sense of virtue.

Die, Yahoo, die!

Yahoo's HTML is pathetic. I was trying to inform them that their e-mail service was being used for spam, and after intuitively hitting on the URL (no link from the main page), all I get is a bunch of raw HTML. Believe it or not, one of the biggest dotcoms in the world isn't aware that an HTML document should start with some indication that it is in fact an HTML document and not plain text. Perhaps the choice of company name is an apt literary allusion.
