In case anyone wanted to know about Goedel Escher Bach.

And Buridan's ass starved to death because it couldn't decide which pile of food to feed from [placed equally distant on each side of the donkey] = a discussion on free will, choice and the like.

An onager is a wild ass from Mongolia or somewhere. Also a medieval catapult system for sieges of fortifications, cities etc. They launched rocks, burning oil and stuff like that. Which easily could kick your dunny door down, which is perhaps why they were named after the onager ass. Which got into the discussion because of confused spelling of ass, arse [you know, donkeys, mules, asses and the like].

Oh, a 'dunny' is a NZ expression for a 'loo'.

Okay, 'bathroom'.

Let's all just repeat to ourselves "We are the smart money, we are not mad!"
