We need more random text-stringing algobots like this on the net!
(See paragraph below...)

They are a very good gateway to the future!  Or somewhere!

And your mind is so stretched-wide by trying to understand what
he could possibly have been trying to say! !!  Yes!
See, it's fun to talk like alien robot artificial stupidity !

Missing nouns!  
Parentheticals and clauses which build up anticipations that you are 
about to read something that makes sense,
only to see nothing materialized by the end of each 'sentence'!
Close-quotes without any open-quotes to match them with, reducing the
entire 'paragraph' (Is a string of words and and punctuation marks a
paragraph?) to complete trans-metaphorical de-referenciality!

Could a human produce such wondrous stuff?

Am I right in concluding that there are aliens and cyborgs in our midst?


Does anyone remember RACTER, the poetry/story generating program of the
mid-80's?  Have you seen the "Chomskybot" webpage, which generates
brain-bending academic koans about "parasitic gaps in texts"?


Is there some precise set of missing punctuation and perhaps a single
missing word which would make this poetry suddenly come to life?
Instead of acting as a mental vampire, confounding all attempts to
befriend it?

Was "T.J. Bowling" perhaps written in PROLOG?
