About Me

An attempt at things. A sport and a pastime. A high wind in an empty grove. A catalogue of these few things.

Which is easier to make a model airplane out of and why: a banana peel or a wet sock?

Give me three atom smashers, a bottle of scotch and a girl in a diaphanous veil waiting to be turned into a chimpanzee, and I'll have you a model airplane in no time.
