<The 16,852 (and counting!) rants>

Really? Hmmm. I remember in my youth the idea that playing snooker all day was probably a way of wasting my life, but it had some appeal somehow. Now I spend an inordinate amount of time seduced by flat [more or less] green and balls at golf. Plus obviously a vast and probably pointless amount of time ranting into cyberspace.

But then, who remembers the prosaic details of a peasant life in the 8th century? They are born, eat, work, play, mate and die.

I wonder why green surfaces and balls have such attraction to so many people. I suppose it's sublimated hunter/gatherer behaviour drives.

I will NOT be reading any of the horror stuff which was inflicted on me in my infancy - woodcutters going to chop up children [Hansell and Gretel], trolls eating billy goats, wolves and other terrors which led to nightmares. Nor will I expose him to anything on a television set [we didn't have tv while our children were young - it's brain suffocation and destruction].

He should cerf cyberspace on CDMA2000 1xEV-DO and learn to integrate cyberspace as a symbiotic part of his brain. Want to know something or remember, tap Google. To navigate click gpsOne and maps. To swap value select Mq's new currency the Q [Quid with acknowledgement to QUALCOMM] or maybe the U [Utopia]. To communicate it's Eudora2Go. To visit a place select 3D viewing. Etc etc.
