Title: My Blog.
Post by: Roger Kettle on January 07, 2007, 10:19:33 PM: I can honestly say that I haven't had sex with Jennifer Aniston in the last 48 hours.
I wrote a series of Beau strips today about The Vultures and how proud they were of their heritage. They end up with a rendition of "Sing If You're Glad To Eat Prey". I then realised the song I was attempting to parody was about 25 years old. Cutting edge stuff, eh?
I got a phonecall from my mate, Colin Tarrant, today. If you want to hear him sing "My Way" as Brian Clough, go to www.cloughiereturns.com.
It's my wife's birthday tomorrow. She shares it with Elvis and David Bowie. "This Is Major Tom To Graceland".
There's an idea....any suggestions for Presley/Bowie hybrids? "You Ain't Nothin' But A Starman" ?
I'm going to bed now.
I can honestly say that I haven't had sex with Jennifer Aniston in the last 48 hours and 20 minutes.

I believe a blog is traditionally meant to include the things you did do, not the other way round.

That doesn't make sense.
You mean "a blog is traditionally meant to include the things you did do, not the things you didn't", shurely?

Are you always this pedantic when you are sober?

It depends on which bit is "the other way round".

For example:

- a blog is traditionally meant to include the things you did do, not the things you didn't do.

- a blog is traditionally meant to include the things you did do, not omit the things you didn't do.

- a blog is traditionally meant to include the things you did do, not not meant to include the things you didn't do.

Or we could apply the "not" to the noun "blog".

- I believe a blog is traditionally meant to include the things you did do, not something that is not a blog is traditionally meant to include the things you did do.

Or we could apply the "not" to the verb "believe".

- I believe a blog is traditionally meant to include the things you did do, not disbelieve a blog is traditionally meant to include the things you did do.

Go on: go for it!

Post by: Mince on January 08, 2007, 06:46:31 PM: So a flower doesn't die: is that what you are saying?

Post by: Mince on February 02, 2007, 11:24:36 PM: Another thing about a blog. Isn't it supposed to have more than one entry?

Post by: Roger Kettle on February 03, 2007, 07:43:59 PM: That's why I said "I've stopped now".

Post by: Mince on February 03, 2007, 07:48:02 PM: Ah . . . right. Missed that.

Post by: Roger Kettle on February 03, 2007, 08:02:33 PM: Mince, I'm bored with my avatar/picture thingie. Can I have my Custer one back? Or maybe one of Lieutenant Charles De Rudio? He's a hero of mine. He was a drummer boy with Garibaldi, tried to assassinate a Napoleon, was pardoned at the guillotine, escaped from Devil's Island, survived the Little Bighorn and formed a dance band.
He's very similar to me in that he used to go shopping.

Post by: The Peepmaster on February 03, 2007, 08:13:25 PM: This is him, Mincey - just back from Tescos.

I'm amazed he didn't get that beard caught in the shopping-trolley.

Post by: Fyodor on February 05, 2007, 06:53:49 PM: No.

Post by: Roger Kettle on February 05, 2007, 08:39:49 PM: Fyodor, I realise you can be a bit obtuse at times but what exactly are you saying "no" to?
Title: Re: My Blog.
Post by: Mince on February 05, 2007, 09:05:54 PM: I wanted to ask but I thought it was an in-joke.

Post by: Fyodor on February 06, 2007, 09:27:27 AM: My visits to the noticeboard are dictated by access to a computer.
This means that because of the high activity, I may be answering a question from much further up the board. My answer of "No" was in response to a question asked by Mince. Is that obtuse enough for you, oh Great One? That's you, Roger, by the way.

Glad you cleared that up: people tend to call me "Oh Great One" as well.
