HURI|NET, Strange and twisted fun since 1995
"We take English for granted but if we explore its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square, and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig. There is no egg in eggplant, no ham in hamburger, no apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins weren’t invented in England or French fries in France. Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads which aren’t sweet, are meat.”
Victor Lownes

Site Summary (2004-06-22) / History
Creative Abstractions (huri.net) was started in 1995. It had it's first
major crash in 1997, when all the content was lost and it had to be restarted.
It continued on until December 2004, when once again the site crashed, and
most of the content was lost. Fortunately, some of the content was restorable
and the restoration of the site begins. Stay tuned.
