No, it’s just my lungs trying to escape my body, same as usual for this week. Being sick sucks. Especially when you no longer get sick leave, so you just have to…

One is a genius, the other's insane…
I’ll leave it to the reader to work out which of Pinky and the Brain I consider myself to be. And, for that matter, who the other half of that equation is….
You didn't write, you didn't telephone, you didn't call, you left me on my own…
Man, I’d kill for a CD copy of Fuzzbox’s Big Bang, even though it will make me feel rather old. Damn. I just had to go and look up when it came…

Wow. An on-topic song lyric (and one of the better tracks off a remarkably poor Prince album. Then again, the numbers of those are starting to stack up…) In any case, the…
So she ran to the arms of America…
I don’t really want to think about when that album came out right now. For a start, I really should be working to make up for this afternoon’s Nanna nap. Mm.. Nanna…
