the MOTD (slightly off topic)

Hmm.... hope I can get away with posting this without being flamed. i mean
- it is on topic sort of coz there's ascii in it. :-) oh ok - flame me; I
deserve it. ;-) But seriously - this was quite popular when I sent it out
before (had to give up coz I needed to study). I'd love to get it up and
running again! :-)
Right - sucking up over with. :)

 This is a sample copy of the new and improved MOTD. If you or anyone you
 know would like to receive it every day (or at least as often as I remember
 to send it) send the relevant legitimate e-mail addresses to:
 flu...@quadrant.xs4all.nl. Include 'I want the MOTD!' somewhere in the 
 subject or body of the message. :)
 
 [From next month the MOTD will be on the ascii website, with sample 
 editions and info on how to sign up for it. New update out in the first
 two weeks of July]

 James Cameron, ever the perfectionist, was so concerned about Jack's 
 drawings in the film Titanic looking just like he wanted, that he drew 
 them himself. In the scenes where Jack's hand is shown sketching Rose, 
 it's James Cameron's hand, and he's trying his best to draw right handed, 
 because he's a lefty.

 When Briton Malcolm Ecles, 50, died of bowel cancer, his family turned
 him into a kitchen aid. In accordance with his wishes, they keep his 
 ashes in a specially crafted glass egg timer. "I can't boil a soft 
 egg to save my life," widow Brenda Eccles said. "He knew that and 
 said I should turn some of his ashes into an egg-timer. Then he could 
 help me and it would be a nice way of remembering him."'
