smoke this.
the following code execudes just fine (the puts are executed in order 1-7, no parse errors). earns an anything-special-about-that? shrug from the ruby crowd, a highly disturbed look from everyone else (including me).
module Acid
puts "1) My first Acid."
def self.append_features(mod)
puts "4) Now #{mod.class}'s taken Acid."
mod.extend(self)
end
end
class Bus
puts "2) Now that's a boring bus."
end
class Furthur < Bus
puts "3) First, setup the fuel."
include Acid
puts "5) Lets get on the magic bus."
def initialize
puts "6) A magic bus has been set up."
end
def play_hippie_music
puts "7) Driving Home. That's it, folks!"
end
end
magic_bus = Furthur.new

aphex twin is alive and well at youtube
a warning, in case you hadn’t noticed: some of this stuff is really dark & twisted.

all of these were by aphex twin & chris cunningham.
and for some comic relief:

Qingdao
“The taxi ride to the restaurant was insane. The taxi driver was weaving in and out of cars at speeds between 160 and 180 KPH (between 100 and 110 MPH). He was passing cars on double yellow lines with incoming head-on traffic. When I reached for my seatbelt, I quickly realized it was broken. I looked at the driver and asked if I could atleast share his. He just laughed. At one point he was passing a car on a double yellow with an incoming Tsingtao beer truck coming at us at full speed. Luckily the other driver swerved in time but missed our taxi by less than 2 inches. It was the closest I’ve come to “a serious and most likely fatal traffic accident. (Wouldn’t that have been ironic, getting killed by a beer truck while attending the beer festival.) By the time I arrived at the Italian restaurant my legs were shaking and I almost threw up. So if you ever get in a taxi in Qingdao and the driver’s name is 陈心南 (Chen Xin Nan), get the fuck out. (Although he did get me across town in record time.)” thewhiskeydragon.net

getting themes to work with typo trunk
the old web server is dying, so it was time to get a new one and move everything over. typo didn’t run in the new ruby/rails environment, so i decided to try updating to the latest svn trunk revision. it took some fiddling to get it to work, especially since i wanted to use a new theme – [Lucid Theme](http://typogarden.com/articles/2005/11/30/the-lucid-theme) by [Jamie Hill](http://www.thelucid.com/). the theme hasn’t been updated for some time, so (due to some changes in the handling of sidebars) it didn’t work with typo trunk. fak3r [researched](http://fak3r.com/articles/2006/06/05/howto-get-typo-themes-to-work-with-trunk) how to fix that – thanks!
note: there’s still some trouble with internet explorer on windows. i’ll look into that – and the flickr sidebar – later.
