First up
webstuff = all sublinks open a new w

webgreetings Dear
Linear Scholar,
First time here? If so, first thing you need to
know is that we been bumped up at a
pause point for more than a couple of years now, wwwaiting for
the Law to change and the next thing you need to knowww is that
Big Bong Reality has been Updated Monthly
for *at least* the TWO HUNDREDETH and first time since September
1995. (Almost 17 web years old, as for how many
actual "Realty Updates" written and uploaded 'in between' the *at
least* 201 monthlies? Dunno, except that its way way more than
420, this is FER SURE the most often overwwwriten webpage in all my cyberspace ;O)--~
Historically speaking, this reality
update feature was one of the main clauses written into the 2 year
contract I signed in September 1995 (with I.R.C.S.A) for the first
BigBong website Clause = Author (that's me) to supply a
reality update every 2 weeks for duration of contract (2 years) -
which I did, they figured (rightly) that without me to write fresh
words, the Big Bong web site wouldn't be a 'proper" website. In
September of '97 when the contract was finished and I.R.C.S.A
decided to step aside, I kept the website with it's reality update
going and have never missed upgrading this page, which, I suppose
makes this one of the longest running blogs on the web, of course, I
write way way way more words per month than what you can see in here
- most of the heavy duty blogging I do/have done is viewable at the
teXt-files, I digress - mostly to illustrate the
continuity nightmare that blogging can create when a 'first timer'
hits a 16 year old blog and all the information on display requires
prior knowledge.....
METAphorically the Big Bong web
construct can be likened to a solar powered space craft, each sail
is made of <html> shaped in such a way so as to powwwer the
web construct through cyber space, kinda like a sailing ship through
the ocean. Since powering up the webcam can be likened to firing up
the 'prime thruster' of a rocket ship and since the BBt-PPP Cyber
Capsule was designed to only light up the prime thrusters at the
start of construction and since there are so many sails powwwering
the BBt-PPP, it has made sense to let the 'good ole' BBt-PPP Cyber
Capsule voyage blurbingly along its eccentric tangent towards
materialization at a future point in space and time whilst I went
else web to construct other smaller, more maneuverable constructs
powwwered almost entirely by web cam imagery, portals originally
designed as tug boats for the BBt-PPP which were designed to morph
into 'retro rockets' with the passing of time.
Thus, you know some of
the wwwhy why this page morphed into an elseweb portal page over the
last few trips round the sun, a book markable
sign post page that is never more than a "mouse click" away
from wwwhere-ever the wwwords are being wwwoven in the
now.
Thing is, that I never
set out to become a Big Bong builder or a Cannabis Law Reform
Activist, I set out to become a writer and as you can imagine dear
linear scholar, after such a long time of not being able to manifest
all of the myriad requirements that obstacle me in reality you would
think I would be some what discouraged, not so, I mean, I knew from
the instant that I had the idea, that
actually building Bongzilla (my nick name
for the Big Bong Peace Pipe) was going to be somewhere the other
side of highly impossible.
Thing is, I am not
discouraged, because no matter how impossible building a 420 foot
high Big Bong Peace Pipe might look 18 years later in
the July of 2012, it is definitely - and
significantly - less impossible now than it was when I first had the idea on the
29th of June 1994, not to mention the fact that the writer/artist in
me has had plenty of outlet weaving what amounts to an entire sector
of cyber space, which is why, when all is said and done, I am not
discouraged by Bongzilla being bumped up at this
pause point, not when there is so much happening in the real
world of my highly subjective reality ;O)--~
2012...
nearly 17 years online... this time 18 years
ago I had a box of pens and 2 notebooks full of poems and ideas, I
didn't own - or really know how to use a computer and/or how to
write a book. 17 years ago, I had finished one finger typing up the
manuscript that ultimately became the novel that this entire
webspace is constructed "upon" on a 386 with 4 MB of RAM and was
actively engaged in the promotion of the novel. 17 years ago, the BiG BonG
TheorY was selling in book stores all over Sydney and
Internet was a word I had heard on television whilst 'back packing'
in the U.S.A (91-94), of course, I had been reading about global
computer networks in science fiction novels since I learnt how to
read, but 'reading about' and 'writing with-in' are entirely
different things, which loopingly brings me to the main point of
this word assembly, the "weblog" component of this July 2012 Reality Update.
Anyhow, as I said above, I up date
this page on the first of the month and over write it during the
month if something "Big Bong" is actually happening and while
there is not much "Big Bong" planned for July,
there was a happening at www.BigJoint.org that I was
involved in on the 5th and 6th of May = MARDIGRASS
;O)
Meanwhile, dear linear scholar, I
am still at wwwork on www.Little-Car-Stories.com
which you will remember (i do) was the focus of the
January 2011 bblog, anyway, it's keeping me busy while I wait for
the changes in the law that trigger either the roll out of www.BigBongBurgerBar.com
and/or the construction of Bongzilla.....
I am still excited about the
2012 NimbinMardiGrass, which was for me
personally, yet again one of the very best MardiGrasses - ever
- not that I have ever had a bad MardiGrass, they are all
equal, but some stand out more than others and it's going to be a
long long long time before I forget either;
And thus, having run out of stuff to
talk about and link to for the "seveth" month of twenty twelve, the
only thing left to tell you at this point in cyber space and time
dear linear scholar is that maybe you can find me sitting on the
POLITE table on the back veranda of the H*E*M*P* Embassy
(or in the H*E*M*P*
Bar) during the MardiGrass, in the drugsense Chat Room or
perhaps on the Nimbin
H*E*M*P*Embassy Forums or, plus/and if you have access to
facebook, you ought check out facebook.com/BigBongPeacePipeProject.

till next
peace

P.S Did you ever hear about the
arrest
for the cultivation of the Cannabis Plants that were to have been
the focus of the 2001 webshow.
