My Attic Pages

Below, I link to a few things that have seemed to be of interest to some people. This pile is a 'home page' insofar as 'home' is connected mostly with those people and comfortable motifs. I return every so often to throw more junk onto these pages.

I might put a general CV up here somewhere, but it belongs more on the business site. For most purposes, it suffices to say that I am an anthropologist whose current work largely involves editing and fine-tuning academic output in numerous fields, doing one-on-one work with translators, and so on.

I would link to a 'who I am' page, but the Web needs no more such pages. You may consider this my 'blog offset' if you wish.

The main things you can find here

Anna's News Clippings - weird news archive:
Archives of weird-news mailings from the last couple of decades
provide news stories that answer such questions as
• 'Are there any new loony criminals in Florida?',
• 'What is so weird about my country?', and
• 'What did Anna tell me about that lady with a huge hairball in her stomach?',
all without delving into the murky waters of urban legend.
You can go to the index page for the Clippings directly or jump straight to...
the latest Clippings.
Anagram-related materials:
The section for Anna's 'grams presents a scattered arrangement of
the FAQ for the alt.anagrams newsgroup,
a quick-reference categorised archive of some of my anagrams,
and other bits and bobs.
Doctor Who transcripts:
I have updated and mirrored the Doctor Who Transcript Project collection,
a labour of love that extends over many centuries, or at least several decades.
I have finished transcribing and annotating the Tom Baker serials.
Submissions to fill in the remaining gaps are welcome.

Quickie-Web-Voo is the perfect Web browser.

Also available here

The Jesuspizza Project site:
The pages of the former jesuspizza.org reside here -
for distributed slices of heaven.
Don't ask; just look. D'ough!
Some sips of beer:
There isn't enough on these pages to get you tipsy,
but you still might find something tasty among the
various beer-related chronicles and photos here.
This section unevenly covers everything from historical pub crawls
through the Tallinn Crap Beer Festival (it's all mere rumours)
to Lithuanian farmhouse brewing.
The Fu*ked Relationships Pages:
Pretty much permanently under construction and free from banner ads and censorship,
this section is along the lines of fuc*ed-company.com
(don't want my index page inaccessible from public libraries, do we?).
The Fu*ked Relationships Pages are a bit more than a freak show with dysfunction on display.
Hot Asian Noodz!:
It's just what it says - go here for the, erm, art pictures,
pretty much free of redeeming content...
but with (nearly) everything you'd expect from a pr0n site born in the '90s.
Slasher news: / \
