As I was about to say, before I was so rudely distracted...
Evening denizens
I hope you're all well when you read this tomorrow, including those of you who never bother checking back behind the point when you make your first post of the day ("I live in the moment!!! [checks watch to see if it's lunchtime yet]") and will, therefore, never read it
It must be very annoying for you when the person in the next-door hotel bedroom keeps on loudly exclaiming that mobile broadband is lacking the responsiveness necessary to view pornography.
No, no, I don't want to break up... FFS, what's happened to my bandwidth[*]! It keeps breaking up!
[*] N.B.: This may be a euphemism
I assume that this is the reason that this limitation of existing technology has been brought to your attention - although remember that these things work both ways. Your loud exclamations of disgust when you miss out on getting a handbag on Bid-Up TV are probably annoying the dirty old man too
Today I've seen 2 new very little very cute baby squirrels born from my fav female squirrel - she is very clever and very tame
You'll have them pushing the trolleys round Sainsbury's for you in no time - at that age, they're ripe for Pavlovian conditioning!
That reminds me, there's a good cartoon in the latest Private Eye - captioned "Pavlov's Cat", it shows a cat sticking the middle finger of its paw up at the viewer
(For the pedants such as myself: the artist has correctly depicted the cat as extending the phalanges that would correspond with the middle finger in all creatures having pentadactyl limbs. Although the advent of the Internet, and particularly the application thereof commonly known as the World Wide Web, has brought many benefits to humankind, it does allow pedants such scope that one can scarcely describe a joke without having to add a bunch of footnotes [citation needed]).
