Where I work, we've had a rash of self inflicted injuries lately. Every time an accident occurs, I have to fill out about 10 pages of paperwork, do an investigation and make official pronouncements about how to move forward. I've formulated the following universal safety rules (not OSHA approved). Feel free to use them in your own workplace.

I'd be kicking heads. If I didn't care about it, I'd just walk away. But I will niggle and push because I know what we have here will be the best. There are problems, I get no response when I ask for help. I don't understand computers or cyberspace or all of that crap, but what I need to know is that you are having problems and all you have to post is 'Please be patient.' Otherwise I begin to think that 'your pulling my pisser.' It's a working class phrase you may not understand it.

I was having an interesting conversation today with a lady from China. We were discussing politics and gasoline prices and things of that nature. She made a comment to me, which I found amusing and thought perhaps worth tossing about with other nationalities.

Well, I come crawling back and find that Jude's brain has been bleeding but the angels being on her side and all, she's still here so that's great, and slightly lessened the shock of all the changes on the site and from the Universe in general, which is overwhelming me, but as my brain has chosen not to bleed so far, I suppose I'm really in good shape.

I've really missed writing though and want to get back to it and to stop reading things other than self help books.

Was I away that long? Is the baby here yet?

The site seems a lot faster right enough.
