Well, yeah, that was a bit of an obvious statement on my part. Guess I need to think before I type.  Bob |

Thinking before typing, that's no fun. But don't take me littorally, or orally before eating. "Slushy" always makes me think of 7-11 Slurpies. Could "of a cloven sunfish" be a new flavor? Maybe a new scent?

Only if 7-11 sampled my ex-girlfriend's mother's armpits. That woman was nasty. Bob |

Well, if "There was a bursting as of an exploding bladder, a slushy nastiness as of a cloven sunfish, a stench as of a thousand opened graves, and a sound that the chronicler could not put on paper." represents chronological order, the slushiness arrived before the sound of the explosion. If it were an explosion and not a howling from the depths of the unknown Abyss, which is also possible. The sentence seems to be a problem for Husserl's phenonomology, with Cthulhu as noema and cloven supersonic sunfish as noesis. Or vice versa So, what would you like my Husserlian phenomenologist Ph.D. husband to analyze about the sentence? Right now he's just shaking his head at all of us. (though he secretly knows a lot of Lovecraft because I give him recordings) Also, he says the cloven sunfish wouldn't be a noesis because it's an object of thought and not an intention. It'd be a noema even though it doesn't exist. |

Well, it would be the noesis if Cthulhu were its object of thought, that was the basic idea. Ask him to analyze that friggin cloven sunfish sentence, I'm sure it's Husslerian at base. Pity you're married, btw.

I'll see if I can do that when he's having one of his "I'm working on writing 3 papers but I can't make myself focus on any of them" moments. Pity you're married, btw. There's a phenomenologist who'd disagree with you on that. (as would I) *curtsies* |

Not just married, but happily so. That's what's so embittering. |

It's not really downloading, not from here. Starts out at a paltry 10 KB/s then falls off to zero/hanging.

fishy, or anybody really:
could you upload it to megaupload or sendspace.com and post the link here? I'm still showing two hours to go and it keeps stopping. Proxies aren't having any better luck either.
Thanks in advance!

See, that's what we get fro trying to spread this file around the internet. If this gets out, and it already has, then we will be revealing ourselves to the cult and in effect painting giant targets on our chest. Of course, that having been said, yeah, it was really slow for me too, but I just left it DL'ing in the background. It took about 4 hours.

I often find that Wednesday nights/Thursday mornings are slow to download new and/or any episodes as I'm always listening to past 'casts and everything slows down appreciably. At any rate, yeah this was an absolute knockout performance from Andrew. I will be listening to it many, many times to come. Thanks guys!!!!

This is ridiculous. I downloaded it for 4 hours last night and probably RESUMEd it about 26 times, and ended up with 71 MB that came to 8 minutes of audio. I don't even really care. I mean, I like Leman's voice, but it's not crucial, I have the text. I just wanted to be able to upload it somewhere so others could perhaps download it. Anyway, still trying. It keeps going to zero KB/s and I keep restarting it. Eventually I'll win.
