Sorry about that…

I blame the coffees that I’m munging.

Ho-hum. So much good stuff happening today. Got a new copy of SFX, found out that Terry Pratchett’s Hogfather is going to be on TV this Christmas. That is very cool.

Blurgh. I also have to update my standing order at the all-mighty Gosh!. Before I go into that, I’ll take a moment to recommend that you pop in there when you visit the British museum. They are nice chaps, and the store is a lovely place that has a bunch of cool stuff… yet doesn’t feel all hideously childish. Go there, spend money. Be good.

Where was I? Oh yes… standing order. I’m going to add some new Star Wars comics, and stuff like that. I’m feeling all nostalgic today. It’s got to be because of these tablets that I’m on…

For those that want to know… to Dictionary.com says the mung is:

mung
/muhng/ (MIT, 1960) Mash Until No Good.

Sometime after that the derivation from the recursive
acronym "Mung Until No Good" became standard. 1. To make
changes to a file, especially large-scale and irrevocable
changes.

See BLT.

2. To destroy, usually accidentally, occasionally maliciously.
The system only mungs things maliciously; this is a
consequence of Finagle's Law.


…blah blah blah.

But I mean to eat lots of, all at once. Sorta. It’s good.
It reminds me…. It’s time to discuss MUNGFEST!
