The USA - the land of

Posted on Sun, 28 Sep 2025

The USA - the land of conspiracy theories. I don't suppose we'll ever get to the truth of a lot of things. Whilst Alfred could lay low, I suspect the lure of investigative roving reporting will be too strong for him!

An enigma posed adriotly.

I don't know the answer but I'm sure someone will be along shortly to solve it.

You often explore the dark underbelly of the corporate jungle with insight and cynicism, Mark. The fragments you describe are familiar especially the verbal waterboarding that goes on around missed sales targets and weak pipelines.

All caught up.

Alternate universes/the multi-verse. My favourite theories but I could be off-beam. I often am :)

Memories are all we are left

Posted on Thu, 11 Sep 2025

Memories are all we are left with when loved ones leave us. In that way they live on.

I enjoyed this reminiscence, especially the bit about W-s-M.

"He had lost count of how many tables had gone to their after life thanks to the continual and frequent machinations of his wife Mrs Muggins, a lady most obsessed with tables"
