Vagueness and the Aftermath - A sporadic diary

Spot on.

He is the bloke that Boldie and I are turning into.

lol..i turned into him a long time ago Mr Red...MrsB will tel you the same thing, poor soul.

The show's called "No Cure for Cancer" by Denis Leary if you ever want to watch the rest (he tears just about everything a new one).

Shame he's just a lightweight copy of Bill Hicks, but he's still entertaining.

Thanks Rod, but I think the title has put me off.

Books and covers, Mr Red. (See?..I can say wise things )

My good friend Ralph (aka karabiner) came to see me today. Amazingly, he has suffered a bridgework malfunction just like I have, and has lost his front teeth, exactly the same ones that I have lost. What are the odds? 

The galling thing is, Ralph can still speak properly. He can eat cake without spraying it all over the place (He actually brought me a cake so that he could have a piece and show off) And worst of all, he somehow manages to look sophisticated with his front teeth missing, whereas I look like I lost 30 IQ points per incisor.

I took a picture of us both side by side. Ralph suggested captions like "All we want for Christmas" and "Only our mother can tell us apart"

Alas, the picture didn't come out, but I do have a stunning image of my thumb. (Sorry Ralph).


Ralph is from the old school. He has a few knobbly edges here and there, but if you were in a tight corner, you would be glad to squeeze over and have him beside you.

Don't tell him this, but I'm proud to have him as a friend.

Tom, you cannot even see you have teeth missing.

You do spray cake crumbs around though, which may explain why Kizzy  & those 4 chickens follow you everywhere.

FFS!!!! (LMAO) I'm not hung up about my toothless appearance.

Wait a minute, I know your game....

That would not be the first camera that I have broken.

Thanks for a lovely couple of hours of tranquility Tom.

He actually was a friend of Hicks till he copied his act and fell fowl of him, Hicks slaggd him off about it more than once

I'm a dyed-in-the-wool Simpsons fan, but just lately, I've caught a couple of episodes of "Family Guy".

I have to admit that I found it laugh out loud funny, but what's the deal with the dog?

"Brian" I think his name is. He sits at the dinner table, he talks, he operates machinery etc, and no one seems to find it even remotely strange or remarkable.

Now I understand that it's a cartoon and anything can happen, but they usually offer some kind of explanation like "He was bitten by a radioactive mother-in-law" or something.

Does anyone know what's going on?

No reason has ever been given for it..the maker of "family guy" (very funny when Stewie was still evil) also makes "American Dad" (not soo funny) in which there is a talkig gold fish.

In the Family Guy universe, dogs are either talking, anthropomorphic creatures like Brian and his cousin Jasper, or regular animals such as his mother, Biscuit, and his one time lover, Seabreeze. Brian's "anthropomorphism" is rarely remarked upon. Exceptions include when Peter's boss Mr. Weed refers to him as a "funny talking dog". In the "Road to Rhode Island" episode he asks the owner of his mother, Biscuit, if he remembers him, the farmer asks which one he was, and Brian says "I was the one who could talk", to which the farmer remembers him immediately.

In other words, he's just your regular talking dog.

Now that's what I call an answer. Thanks Rich.

Boldie? Pffft!

That's it! I've decided that all in pre with kings for a full pull up or more is - EV

I like my toast just one or two shades darker than golden brown, so I set the toaster to 4.5 and that's what I get.

That only applies if the toaster is starting from cold though. If someone else has already used it, or I decide I want some more, the 4.5 setting burns it. This is because the toaster is now starting from hot.

I can't believe that in this day and age, they haven't included a microchip that solves this problem.

(Mind you, our toaster did only cost £4.99 from Argos)

I have to try to cut the grass today.

About a month ago, we had a couple of sunny days and that woke it up from it's winter slumber. Since then, it has rained a little every day.

The rain made the grass grow more, but also made it too wet to cut. Now it's like the Serengeti.
