CHAT/HUMOUR: conlang withdrawal

--- from the ever-amusing email-pal correspondences betwixt _moi_, Hanuman
Zhang, and Christophe Grandsire (who is working on the conlang journal in
absence of the daily fix of conlang list email, and thus is the context for
this short exchange):

CG: It's like a Conlang patch :))

HZ:  a la nicotine patch, eh 0_o?

CG: Yep. Keeps my conlangine level high enough in my blood (conlangine:
mysterious component which provokes dependence to the Conlang list and
everything
related. Supposedly absorbed through the eyes when looking at a computer
screen
filled with conlang-related things. Has relaxing effects comparable to
nicotine.
Its lack provokes also similar effects. Classified as hard drugs. Legal
status:
not mentioned in any law text, thus not officially forbidden in any country.
Yet some people have warned of the desastrous effects of its consumption :))).

OBLANG: How the heck to say "conlangine" without stuttering?
    Me tongue finds it blinking hard to deal with the /Ni:n/ part of
Christophe's neologism... anyone else have the same problem?

Hanuman Zhang  {HANoomaan JAHng} /'hanuma~n  dZahN/

CENTO: neo-futura

M'illumino d'immenso
tutto ruota a vertigine

"Sometimes the difference between
noise and music is all in your head"

notte stellata   nebulosa scoppia
matematica   dei mondi di colore
le Apocalissi meccaniche nuovissime...

les astres sont le silencieux orchestre
des mondes inconnus:
"avec le vide, les pleins pouvoirs"...

"I like the fact that listen is an anagram of silent."

Pace! è notturno, o Terra Nera!
cacofonie divine e cinematografico
  musica romba

NADA BRAHMA ... BRAHMA NADA
... NADA NADA ... BRAHMA BRAHMA...
OM ... Om Tat Sat... Tat Tvam Asi... OM
