Framings 
| | Alex Tew: I will be happily publishing my bank statements and PayPal/2CheckOut records showing that I really did make a million bucks. |
| | I didn't know anything about Alex before Geoff told me about him a few minutes ago. |
| | No permalinks on Alex's blog. That I can find, anyway. A good example of Static Web framing of a Live Web purpose. Alex made his money in Web real estate, and appears to think of the blog as more real estate, rather than as a journal. |
| | Not consciously, but that's the way it comes off. |
| | In any case, an interesting phenomenon. |
Dept. of Corrections
| | I just used "spooge" as an improvised noun for the gunk and pocket lint that had long since accumulated in the little navel on the back of my phone, on the bottom of which is the tiny lens for the phone's camera, which I never use. |
| | Stowe Boyd said "Really?" as if wondering where my phone had been. Then he offered a definition for spooge that I'd never heard. (Side amusement: follow that last link for the google.dk lookup defaulted. I'm still in København.) |

Doc:
re: spooge:
I use the term swarf
We used it back when we (partners and buddies) were building race bikes (and winning btw)
You frequently change the oil
When draining you were very attentive to any metal in the oil (not good)
Clean was very good
Any sign of "sparkles" or grit, any sign of bearings ect was very bad.
Such was called "swarf"
Also, when doing rebuilds/teardowns, you looked for swarf in various nooks and crannys
Same can be applied to various forms of lint/toejam/ect.
Hey - Copenhagen
Hope you get to Tivoli ... evening
Hoist a few brews
Ciao
Chip
