The bottle is then riddled, so that the lees settles in the neck of the wine bottle...
Manual riddling is still done for Prestige Cuvées in Champagne... mechanised riddling equipment (a gyropalette) is used instead.

It would be immensely cooler if every tenth time the forehead window opened there was something else, maybe a naked brain or some bronze dood's junk...
The brain option would leave me open to accusations from BBBB of plagiarising Barrington Bayley's "Sporting With the Chid". How about a six-eyed dog's head? I would also like the forehead window to split down the middle sometimes and open sideways like Pod Doors. World, make it so.
Well then, here's an idea that I think sounds reasonable but I won't try right now because I'm sleepy.
Use
div style="background:url(x.gif) repeat;"
adding triangular brackets and replacing x.gif with whatever the URL of your image is.
Then add say, your standard tinypic tag as usual.
img src="y.gif" alt="" border="0"
/div
The trick is to make y.gif have a layer that lasts for a while and that that layer has blank space in which you can reveal the action of x.gif, thus revealing the Naked Man in a different fashion and with different timing. Set one to go through its cycle every five seconds and the other to do seven and you can pretend the timing's random.
Or, you know, just make a really long and complicated gif.
I know I've done something fundamentally wrong with my life when Substance's post was clear and logical and the Bald Bastard's was nigh impenetrable....

Spiders on the brain?
There must be a cure for that.

You reveal another vexing lacuna in my bibliophily.
Cruelty, thy name is Smut Clyde.
I finally got around to reading The Mound (VMVR?) by HPL and Zealia Bishop- it read like HPL doing a pastiche of A. Merritt.
Fuck. Just fucking fuck.
