    Aargh I can't see the point in another day

    When nobody listens to a word I say - sung by the Police circa 1980 (which I am listening to right now)

    so why are we still here?
    Any views I may express here are personal and certainly do not in any way reflect the views of my employer. Tis the rising of the moon..

    Look, I just don't anymore, okay?

    My greatest wish is to be half the poster MikeH is.

    I'm a boss now, I need someplace to spend all my extra free time during the workday.

    Did Horse say something?
    Jon Miller: MikeH speaks the truth
    Jon Miller: MikeH is a shockingly revolting dolt and a masturbatory urine-reeking sideshow freak whose word is as valuable as an aging cow paddy.
