What? Sleazy, blatant self-promotion on Bee-L?

Well, what with Microsoft FrontPage available at no charge,
everyone and their little sister now has a "blog", carelessly
treading the fine line between pundit and putz, telling anyone
who might stumble upon it more than anyone would want to know
about their every idle thought regarding minutiae that would
put one's date to sleep faster than a double dose of Rohypol.

So, here, just for laughs, is a 100% hand-made website, one
created with skilled old-world craftsmanship, using nothing
more than the "vi" editor on Unix, and a tongue firmly
embedded in cheek.  It is designed to even be nice to those
limited by dial-up bandwidth, and guaranteed 100% free of
tinny MIDI music, shockwave, pop-ups, plug-ins, clashing
colors, fuzzy photos, guestbooks, long scrollable pages,
ads for the X-10 camera, or suggestions about which browser
you should be using.


That said, click away with wild abandon:

  Our 2001 (first) annual report, with photos
  of the Fischer Alchemy headquarters and staff.

  Our 2002 annual report, a summary of the findings
  of our Swiss subsidiary, the "Institute of Wellness
  and Holistic Apiary Therapy" ("I-WHAT?"), in new
  treatments for bee pests and diseases, including
  the highly controversial and much-talked about
  "large-cell" foundation.

  And, our "what's new" for this year - after great
  expense and lots of testing, we now include fingertip
  pump-sprayers with every bottle.  (This may sound
  easy to do, but 25,000 of the darn things

  Lastly, the sponsor of all the foolishness:

           of web pages on the internet continues to
           increase exponentially, the amount of
           verified truth in the universe continues
           to remain fairly constant.)
