A Few Words on Kibology

Without going into too much detail I'll tell you just a bit about Kibology. Kibology is the brainchild of James "Kibo" Parry and a few friends which was 'born' on USENET back in 1991 or so. What it's about isn't really all that important as it really isn't about anything. But what is important is the basic tenet of Kibology: "You're Allowed". That's it and despite frequent cries for more details there's really nothing else to it. This 'allowedness' manifests itself mostly in the form of posts to a Usenet group called alt.religion.kibology where people talk about whatever comes to mind, generally in a very humorous manner.

To learn more you might visit one of these Kibological sites which quite often have links to many similar sites.

While not one of the greats, I do try to contribute to the group. Out of the sliming ooze that is the totality of my posts to the group, I have dug up these few that are somewhat palatable. They're in no particular order but you might go ahead and check 'em out.
