Nope, just gone 8pm (just had a nice spa though, so feeling drowsy).

'sigh. Some people die and are remembered for their service to humanity, or world changing inventions. ME?? I'll be remembered for misspelling and not catching, (even after THREE hints) a word, and kicking peoples arses that call my Kindle 'ugly'. Well, I guess there could be worse things to be remembered for......... Cheers Marc!

Like the old saying, "Ugly is as ugly does."

Be sure to clean your boots afterward.

Oh that sounds so good! Every muscle in my body is screaming after last night's workout: Walked a mile on the track, then swam almost 1/4 mile. The reason for the "almost" is that in the univ pool here, there is a "Lazy River" kind of thing running opposite the lap lanes. However, usually a whirling vortex diverts most of the current. The vortex is broken, so that powerful current came on at 7:00 and blasted me almost into the next lane, except for clotheslining on the lane rope. That was the end of that! But a nice warm spa sounds so good to my aching muscles! Enjoy one for me!

Beware the anti-logs! And don't let your snakes on it since even Adders can multiply on a log table.

No, no, no....remember, we decided that it wasn't a misspell - it was "highly creative use of your matured lexographic experience" and that I am merely elaborating on the details, the definition, of your invention. You will be remembered for your brilliance, desertgrandma, at least if I have anything to do about it.

Folks, "ugy" is NOT a negative descriptor - it is a state of unresolvable, volatile, redundantly-subjective, polarised, rhetorical response to new design, unfortunately posing as an absolute.

I repeat...the Kindle is ugy, and I want one.

Cheers,
Marc

Ugy? Kindle is a rock star compared to mine - brown as a turd and black&gray LCD screen. But even the ugy need love, and I love it.
