Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)

On a Sirius note,young Jem,regarding watch-chains & accoutrements thereof....I have a full-length waistoat chain that has a silver Rupee dated 1910 as it's center [the bit of chain what gives it dangle,from the buttnole dahn yer wesc't] on the one side the chain leads to the actual watch,also 1910,on the other the chain ends in a 1910 silver case,that's flat,rectangular and very small,which containd a photo of my little girl,taken when she was still an infant. I used to wear it alla time when I was an undertaker....my point is,[YES thezza point-shuddup!],although the descrition makes it sound a somewhat cumbersome item,it actually took quite a lot of getting used-to,to NOT wear it and use a wristwatch instead,when I moved away,thus giving up my position.
A watch-chain becomes almost second nature-I,even now,when suited-and-booted,would feel incomplete or incorrectly attired,without it....[bwim I feel my Batman pj bottoms just don't have the same gravitas...got it,gummy?]

Ba gum lad your sharp today.

I’m reminded of me uncle Peter when he was on Mastermind, He had chosen ‘Pioneering Aviators’ as his specialist subject, Magnusson asked him who was the first to cross the Atlantic non stop.
“Mohammad Ali” answered Peter’
“Alcock and Brown, correct”

It’s always nice to see a man with style Pug, a nice little onyx lidded silver snuff box fitted snugly into the waistcoat pocket would add a real classic touch, I can hear the cries of the women now as you walk into the local on a Sunday morning “My oh my! what an elegant old geezer”
As for Batman’s bottom, keep away from it, Robin will get jealous and come swinging for your guts.

Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)

Why do we spend so much time and money making robots that do the same thing as we already do? If you look at the human looking robots they have developed to date they all do the same stupid things, walk up a couple of steps, carry a tray of drinks, speak in an annoying voice, play a game of chess, for Gods sake what’s the bloody point of that?
When we question this we are told “Ah, but this is just the beginning wait a few more years and they’ll be able to do everything we can do, they can even drive cars now”
What other species is so daft as to create a machine to replace themselves? Talk about putting the noose around your own neck to help the hangman out. I give up on humans I really do, I’’m taking the dog out for a walk now, no wonder he looks so happy, his species are not trying to replace themselves, and they used to call them dumb animals.

Well I'm back from me walk with the dog, not a bad night out there, we did of course drop into the local on the way back. RockyII (me dog) got a saucer of Guinness and enjoyed it very much.



Food for thought.

The brain needs nourishment just like your belly
So get up off your arse and knock off the telly
Open a book and read a chapter or two
It makes sense and it’s good for you
Your brain is munching away to it’s hearts delight
Although there’s not a morsel of food in sight
Absorbing energy for the job in hand
Sorting the characters and the lie of the land
Great on a bad day when it’s pouring down rain
Just be careful you don’t get indigestion of the brain.
