Oh man I was gonna use that. Now I am at a loss. Oh, how about this.

It seems warp drive might be a possibility as new math suggest we don't really need jupiter size wad of antimatter to bend spacetime enough in order to have a spacecraft slip along curved space at about 10x speed of light in a vacuum and with no time dilation effects.

There are some problems though, such as the warp bubble gathering and storing up high energy cosmic rays and releasing them at the destination point...but they are seriously working on this.

Sitting on a sofa is often more comfortable than sitting on a chair.

The place where they are might be of most importance though.

Do you feel safe at home? Have you ever feared for the safety of your guitar? Are you terrified that some burglar breaks into your house and catches you filing your nails? Or, even worse, that he cuts all of your right hand nails?

Worry no more... because I got the solution for you! All you need to be safe at home... is a PREDATOR! That's right, you heard it... That's how gangstas do!

You guys are completely confusing the matter.

My dictionary says this is all just higgledy-piggledy, and we will never find out which iphone cover works best, nor what hair cut would really be socially acceptable this spring. A catastrophy!!
So, could you please just for once focus on what´s been said?!

Thanks.

A training mate in Heidelberg was from the former DDR. Folks there had their own styles of humour of which some I found to be really funny.
Dunno if I can translate this one saying; it went sorts like:

I am so darn tired, I could eat a whole loaf of white bread, that thirsty am I.

Somehow it survived the censoring, otherwise I guess it would have been brown bread.

So much about patterns of wood grain and runouts on loafs.
