The Wally^H^H^H^H^H Zorac Report

Thursday: Memories of two years earlier.

Friday: Went to work. Came home. Started to learn PHP. Developed obsession (and the beginnings of a webapp).

Saturday: More PHP. Went into town and wandered round the shops. Picked up Billy Joel CDs for £2 in a charity shop - go me! Went to the Order of the Phoenix Picture House to see Spirited Away, which was cool, although subtitled rather than dubbed. Came home. Coded more.

Sunday: Slept late. Coded more PHP. Watched Gigi. Only just remembered in time to go to Sainsbury's. Did some more perl hacking on my new code for RS.

Today: Work again. Took delivery of two hefty tomes containing the Illiad and the Odyssey plus new toys. Managed to cook dinner despite having forgotten to get more olive oil yesterday.

Tomorrow: Tomorrow, I love you, Tomorrow, you're only a day away!

And finally: GIU!

Meanwhile, on Y!M...

kazzik: Today I saw a girl who had a couple hundred saftey pins attatched to her bag straps..
kazzik: Not pinned on, just around the little thing sting-type straps.
kazzik: Now my question is...
kazzik: why?
kazzik: Has there been a huge saftery pin shortage forecast that I'm blissfully unaware of?
zorac: If there has been, then I've certainly missed the memo. Not that I actually have any use for safety pins these days.
kazzik: My other theory is that she's a member of the st johns ambulance people
kazzik: and needs them in case of an emergency where she has to secure dozens of little slings
zorac: Hmmm. That's certainly a possibility, altough even then it would seem to be a case of being just a little bit overly prepared.
kazzik: Perhaps she is merely lopsided and needs large amounts of metal attatched to the other side of her to keep her balanced?
zorac: Or maybe she has a large magnet at home which she hangs her bag from and the safety bins are there so it has something to attract.
kazzik: I'd like to think someone mistook her for a voodoo doll at some point in her life, except as I said they're not actually IN the bag as such, just neatly stacked on one of the straps.
zorac: Well maybe there's a voodoo doll *in* the bag, and she's just got all those pins on the strap ready to plunge into it.
kazzik: She could be a secret alchemist and determined to change them all to gold.
kazzik: Although what one would do with several dozen solid gold saftey pins escapes me
zorac: Maybe she has the Philosopher's stone right ther in the bag!
kazzik: I suspect she'd leave them attatched to her bag
kazzik: I wouldn't be suprised >:0 the safteypins are clearly a sign of evil
zorac: Indeed! You just have to change a couple of letters and they becom Satanypins!
zorac: (wow. am much with the typos tonight...)
kazzik: Sod spelling. it's eluding me also.
kazzik: I fear these Satanypins
kazzik: and yet at the same time feel there's a market which could be capitalised on
zorac: I feel an icon coming on...
kazzik: Mujah :D
