Lightsabers! Jedi propaganda wants to make you believe how great these things are, but they never tell you how many batteries you need to carry around with you. Nothing is more embarrassing than to stand before a worthy opponent with only a dead flashlight in your hands. I prefer carbon nanofiber blades. 
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Made into part of real life:
Many years ago my son was at his desk doing his homework (on a desktop - when no one worried about a fashionable PC). He needed to leave the room for a bit and whilst he was out I scampered in and hid in the closet about 8 feet behind him. And waited.
After a bit, when I could hear his fingers dancing on the keyboard and he was thus well settled in I burst forth from the closet and exclaimed:
"Ah ha! No One Expects the Unexpected!"
His remark . . . "that was pretty good!" and went back to work.

If an aromatherapist breaks wind, will that cost you £25?

For that part, no charge at all.
To use their "skills" to cover it up? Yeah, that amount should cover it.
Look - everyone has to make a living, even if their job really stinks.

It should cost you £25 just for being fool enough to be there.

Anybody else spot the King Crimson reference in the newsletter today?
|
|
|
|
|
Yes, when it was posted yesterday.
|
|
|
|
|
That's interesting - the newsletter arrived in my inbox 7:18am local time - so is the UK sprayed with newsletters a whole day AFTER the north american continent?
|
|
|
|
|
A whole day after not really... but depending on where you are, we can perfectly have up to 11 hours difference with North America (not sure about the concrete limits of the US). Enough to differentiate between today or yesterday.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

It's the only KC album I've got. Great song depicting the mostly useless conversation I seem to find myself in...babble, burble, banter, bicker, bolderdash, brouhaha, ballyhoo!
