EDIT:
as it’s my birthday the day before i can make no promises as to my whereabouts before this point – i’ll be gadding about somewhere to be sure. for those who are reluctant to travel back to leeds that night there is ample floor space at my place.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

rare as it is, i thought i’d let you all in on a secret about my job – i work with idiots. the grating thing is that 3 of them have PhD’s, one is a professor, and another is applying for a professorship. The most hideous part is they only take information on board if you treat them like puppies. except puppies have a purpose.

cretin1 – we need to decide between A or B
me – did you get my email? the one where i demonstrated that B was clearly the best plan
(it was beautiful. it had a diagram. it stopped just short of writng GOOD and BAD next to the 2 possible plans in foot high neon letters. just.)
cretin1 – yes, but it’s not conclusive, we probably need to meet up with you and expert X
me – no, it is conclusive. it drew a conclusion. me and expert X demonstrated that B was clearly the best plan. meeting up with both of us won’t change the fact that B is the best plan.

better still was then explaining to a PhD computer scientist how the “image” on a monitor is originally sent from the PC via the graphics card.

new comic.

and tomorrow, york brewery, 6pm onwards. people are gathering at leeds uni about 4ish if you want to catch the train with me, otherwise mobiles can be employed – it’s less than 5 minutes walk from york station so if needs be someone can track you down and reel you in.

in conclusion:

people who were there – mighty
people who weren’t there – losers
people who weren’t there and said they would be and then weren’t – french hippy losers
*people who weren’t there and were mavis – not french hippy losers
people who went feral on the addition of ale – alex
gift of awesomeness – brummie_ninja
gift of disturbedness – busy_little_elf

york took an early lead by turning up on time, but the away team eventually struggled to a crushing defeat as reinforcements arrived and the remaining home players defected to the leeds’ side of the room. and this morning sarah returned that sign you nicked.

*EDIT

cheers, i love you all,
