FWIS loses Noble Prize-winning literature

The Nobel Prize committee were chuffed when they discovered that their choice for the Nobel Prize in Literature was a no-show. "We thought we had it all arranged," said a spokesperson, "we called at 4:30am EST as we always do, and the laureate replied to our congratulations with 'splendid! I'll be there!' " The only thing that showed was an extremely long stretch limo with California license plates, driven by a black and white bull terrier smoking a briar pipe. No one else was inside.

The prize situation was thrown into even more turmoil when it was discovered that the basis of the prize was lost in a classic disk backup mixup involving an entity known only as FWIS. Thousands of precious gem-like tranche de merde pieces were seemingly lost forever in the chaos. "We have no artist, and no art," said the spokesperson, "what is the point of going on?" Regardless, after further introspection, the committee has apparently decided to award the prize to a trio of net-loons who have created an entire alternative reality, based upon cellular automata and the vilification of einsteinian physics.

I thought XOF was meant to make us laugh. Instead, you've made me cry. Bravo!

In point of fact, XOF often made me laugh until I cried, so there's that precedent at least.

Most meteors you catch out of the corner of your eye as they zip across the sky. It is rare thing to be looking right at it even before it appears, and you can watch its entire arc as it grows immensely bright and then fades to nothing, leaving you with an incredible memory. Stunning.

Most meteors you catch out of the corner of your eye as they zip across the sky. It is rare thing to be looking right at it even before it appears, and you can watch its entire arc as it grows immensely bright and then fades to nothing, leaving you with an incredible memory. Stunning.

So is this quote.
