this entry brought to you by the letters q and e and the number two
We are again trying to restyle this web page, commonly called a "web log" or a "blog". While we are occasionally cheered by the extension of one's finest language that word has already taken on a dark connotation, satirically defined by Greg Knauss as something nasty that we do not care to repeat, though it does amuse us to read. We like to laugh, and on occasion (though not always when we are in the throes of hilarity) like to touch one's nose. For about the last week, though, doing that on one's right side has been somewhat of a painful nuisance. Nose touching may not be a hobby of one's but when we are ill nose blowing definitely becomes one. Today finally the blemish appeared on the surface and we are delving into much more detail than we would like, which may be why we are using the royal affectation and stilted language. We find it difficult to deride bloggers whilst writing about one's most minute yet disgusting happenings. We are not amused.
