I am going to Ireland tomorrow

For family reasons, I have to go home (see above). In the interests of maintaining humor:

A penguin walks into a bar, and says to the barman,
"My brother was in here earlier, have you seen him?"

The barman replies, "I don't know.
What does he look like?"

Which person currently in the news wrote this in 1991?

"In fact, the logical complementarity of the human sexes has
been so recognized in our culture that it has entered our
vocabulary in the form of naming various pipe fittings
either the male fitting or the female fitting depending upon
which one interlocks within the other. When the
complementarity of the sexes is breached, injuries and
diseases may occur as noted above."

Simply amazing

The United States, with each state re-named for the country with closest matching G.D.P.

The new Blackberry; time creeping.

We were discussing death when I took this photo

We were discussing death when I took this photo, originally uploaded by Stephen10031.

Earlier, in a cafe, I watched the time on his new Blackberry creep from 3:28pm through 3:30pm, then to 3:34pm. Then it raced through to 4:08pm.

At home, we talked about the slight distance that grew between us in recent weeks.
