You Will Be There, when I needed somebody

Give a man a fish, and he'll eat for a day.

Give a man a fishing rod and assuming he lives near a fish filled river, or the sea, and that he is able to use it, he would be able to eat for a good wee while and maybe even build a decent wee business selling fish to other people, or opening a fish and chip shop.

However, I hear that these "Gift an Animal" charities ran into a wee problem. The Goats which they were gifting on behalf of kind people in "the civilised" nations to third world countries were apparently eating the villages out of all cereals that they had. They couldn't actually grow sufficient grass to feed the goats, and so they just ate them all.

My theory is that everyone should get one of these magic potatoes. You don't need to be eating it... just leave it sitting on the window ledge and this whole little world grows and you can sit and watch it for ever. Is beautiful.

I'm wondering if it will produce any new potatoes... or if I will have to plant it for that business; but it is soooo beautiful, I'm not really wanting to bury it.

Dr Smiley Chops Floppy Fringe was on the TV tonight. Oh My God. He was going on about something else... oh yeah, Usain Bolt's body clock apparently goes slower than everyone around him, because he runs fast? I'm sure that is what he said... and that he will live longer ... I have no idea.. I was walking out the room when he started, and his floppy fringe, and smiley chops drew me in again, and before I knew it; I was staring, listening, but not understanding... and Si was laughing at my confused face; again.
