Perhaps the alphabet got abducted by aliens
Nah, it's routine maintenance. They're cleaning the character sets during off hours. Just imagine how they would look after a few weeks if they never did that. The e's usually get worn out first.

Assuming you meant to write 'desert': peyote?
Alternative assumption: she meant what she wrote, and you were having a bad hair morning. Occam's razor and all.

Couldn't you have made it mozart1787? Don G. kicks Figaro's ass.

Also, the 'hero' of a Hollywood blockbuster of this kind can't be a pencil-pusher - that's not very sexy.
You haven't seen me push pencils. After doing that, I have to chase all the wimminz away with my 3kg 1991 IBM Model M keyboard.

There was his accent, which is mentioned, although I do not speak german myself and cannot comment on that and the hand gesture when ordering drinks.
Perhaps a fluent german speaker could also comment on this, I presume there are other we missed as well.
The accent is very noticeable, and the explanation that people from the Piz Palu region (which isn't in Germany) speak like that is somewhat ridiculous.
I'm not so sure about the cultural significance of that hand gesture for "3", it's probably exaggerated a bit. If you're going to start shooting people based on that, I'd expect to see a lot of false positives (and false negatives as well). Just shoot the bugger based on his accent and move on.

Wading through the density of high philosophical writing is a turn off, fer sure. Wait 'til you get to "Les Mots et les Choses."
I've always thought Foucault was a pretty good writer. A bit vain and self-indulgent perhaps, and certainly an acquired taste if you come from a more analytic background. But not an unpleasant reading experience.
For clarity and style, you can't beat old Wittgenstein, I guess.
Better than pictures, we have video...Beckenbauer in the lineup is definitely a bit of a surprise.
This thread is useless without pictures.Got one for you:

How about (modern) pictographic languages? I'm guessing a misplaced penstroke lends an entirely different meaning to a word.
Icons can be evil ambiguity-generators. I routinely try to ignore/turn off icon-infested taskbars in applications. I guess I'm expected to somehow "intuitively" grasp their meanings. But most of the time I'm not even sure what they're supposed to depict. And I don't have the faintest idea what program functions any of those 25 blobs of pixels will lead me to.

cool..beautifully written as well, for a government report.
The signature looks severely disturbing, though.

That's an insane amount of beer and wine!!!
Is it? They have a policy of 2 cans of 0.5 litres of beer / day. Consumption amounts to 0.77 litres / day according to the report. And you've got journalists and the ministry of foreign affairs drawing from that pool. That has got to account for something.

Just useful to know so start saving
So you like your women to have 'staches, eh?

The easier route by far would be the server logs. The server knows which files it serves, and it doesn't care where the requests come from. Ask your ISP.
There is nothing special about index.html. It is just by convention the "root" file for a website which shows up when no specific file is requested, and it doesn't in itself do any tracking. (You used to get just a list of all files in the directory if index.html didn't exist, but providers tend to disable this by default these days).
A script embedded there wouldn't track any external requests for specific files. The idea would be to direct all traffic to the index file, but it doesn't prohibit anyone from requesting stuff directly. (Prohibiting could be done, though, of course).
I can only encourage you to read up a bit on html and basic web design, it's really not rocket science.
-
Well, that would be the alternative: generating the data yourself by including a script into your front page (as documented in the link Wicky provided).
You're saying you don't have a front page, but you could probably make one very easily. Try this: take any simple html-file, rename it to index.html and stick it into your webspace. Try to access it from your browser, work from there...
-
Do you have access to the server logs for your webspace? If you do, all your tracking wishes can be fulfilled. Most hosting plans also come with some kind of log analyzer / stats software, so you don't actually have to look at the raw log files.

I blame the powerful and super secret group of naked short sellers. After selling their shorts, they meet in forsaken places, all nekkid except for Venetian masks. They perform ritual dances and chant "Down with the Dow" over unsettling, polyrhythmic bass lines. I hear that Tom Cruise is a member, too.

Man, we missed this year's Talk Like a Pirate Day. Now that it's almost becoming a job qualification. The forum's really going down the drain.

The current substitute for European wars is the Eurovision Song Contest, channeling all kinds of barbaric impulses. (And it may very well lead to another war, the way it has been going in recent years)...

Ah, to be a Junior Member after 6 years.

I've heard rumours about a secret module: Saving Signora Sgrena...Originally posted by Sergei:The divine truth is that CMBB sold poorly because it had some Italians in it, and CMAK sold even worse because it even had Italy in it. This is why you don't see them in CMSF upcoming modules list.

Or like the soundtrack of a porn flick (or so I've heard).

I will try to accept this statement as true. And I feel honored to have received this item of information, because I am sure the Justicar is aware that it contains potentially dangerous implications.Originally posted by Joe Shaw:that in the same manner only the TRUE Peng Challenge Thread will deny that it IS the Peng Challenge Thread
Far be it from me. Nor will I ever mention his typoes, as I know from personal experience that nothing good will come from that either.Doubt you not the Justicar lad, nothing good with come of it.

I suspect what you're doing here, diesel, is twofold: you're projecting your own normative ideas onto evolution, in order to then derive support for your view from "nature".
