Oubliette - (noun, french) a little place of forgetting. A small, windowless room where someone is locked away, forgotten, left to go mad.
This is my personal place to rant and rave like the lunatic I am, my oubliette. It's dark, quiet, and I come here to forget about things. Or maybe to remember them. After all, where does insanity end, and insight begin?

the pope-athon continues
The doors to the Sistine Chapel are now shut and locked, and CNN has the live Chimney Cam in the corner of screen during their broadcast. Or you can watch the live Sistine Chapel Chimney Webcam. Of course, there are many, many more online resources for those who are keeping track of the Papal selection process, including the Pope-U-Lator. Once again, thanks to Brainwise to staying on top of the circus at the Vatican.

Update - I had to remove the link to the Chimney Cam, since apparently the link only works from the CNN page.
Update #2 4/19/05- Yahoo News has a Webcam with a permenant link, and audio. You can listen to reporters and other pilgrims chatting, and watch the pigeons on the roof of the Sistine Chapel while waiting for the next smoke emission.
