Sonnets are too long for club notices.

There is a lack of input here
Just words inside a heartless box
Yet, what is meant is always clear
A kind of "Meno's paradox."

Lepidoptera has butterflies
The "ptrera" is the Greek for "wing"
To coleoptera, beetle replies
Hymenoptera include those that sting

But the "Menoptra" is, you see,
A Dr. Who creature is seems
So that's the right last name for me!
I thought I'd keep that insect theme.

And thus, discuss the bugs you hate
The show, as always, starts at eight.

1. PERRY MASON THEME (4:03) Perry Mason and the case of THE LOST LOGIN
2. KRISTIN CHENOWETH - I Am A Stranger Here Myself (2:53)

We had some server issues and I crashed out of SL 15 minutes before the set. Luckily, I have outside IM contact with others who did not crash and they were able to switch over the parcel radio to the correct stream. I didn't manage to get on until the 6th song in the list, but the show started on time. The server issues continued and the Lindens sent out a system notice to refrain from all activities involving inventory.

No transactions at this time
But we got on, so that's all fine
The Lindens can try as they might
But I'm still DJing tonight
