Every so often TNP goes through phases of typing when pissed. Or wearing mittens.

Not editing actually.

I wrote 44,000 words in 12 hours at the weekend.

And corrected em.

Still only use two fingers to type..

[PeterC]

So do I most of the time, but when I'm on the beer the two don't necessarily land in the corretc order.

[The Natural Philosopher]

Mind don't anyway. Irrespective of beer. And they often hit the wrong keys as well.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember "Dave Liquorice" saying something like:

I love it. Out here, I'm five miles from the nearest small town and the slight horizon glow from its by-pass lighting doesn't affect seeing much. The only other glow is a village on a hillside five miles to the NW. Everywhere else is pitch black and the skies are fantastic on a clear night.

Couple of years ago I bought a cheapy ex-German Border Security gen1 Night Sight. Quite good for amplifying what's there; although it's not a true image intensifier, it really needs an IR illuminator unit with it (which was missing) Amazing what you can see with it, when th only illumination if from starlight.

Dogging?

[The Natural Philosopher]

We call it Dorking the Wogs.

Dogs cant talk, but they can understand in their own way, many words. But spoonerism is beyond, them it seems.

As, is, punc, tu, ation, in, your, case, it, would, appear.

Sorry - couldn't resist.

[Tim Streater]

than aiming at random.

[The Natural Philosopher]

Them commas will keep moving around.

Worse than dogs for not staying where you put them...

[Tim Streater]

I know I, know.

And what do we see in today's edition of The Times, on the letters page? Something about a device to turn sheet music pages (so as to avoid interrupting the music flow by having to turn them by hand, fair enough).

And how is this device operated? By a "foot pedal".

I think that merits a grade-A smack.

Alternatively, paint the loo & loo walls with glow in the dark paint, preferably phosphorescent NOT radioluminescent ...

There. Sorted....

What? *She* don't like the colour?

Over on the various bicycle forums, I'm struck by how many peddlers there are. Life must be tough.

Leck miich am orsch ...

(makes mental note to make sure that the german grandson doesn't learn to sit down to pinkle once he's potty trained)

[geoff]

Didn't they show one of them on QI last year ?

[geoff]

Give 'em a shewee and make them stand
