Whilst trying to have a chat over coffee with my friend,
her aged p kept going on about the witches who have
fooled around with her eyesight, I came up with a cunning
plan.
With the use of one camera, a device that can do lip-
reading and two pairs of noise-cancelling earpieces it
should
be possible to cancel out the blathering of the third
party. Merely looking their way occasionally, nodding and
smiling should keep them from noticing until the end of
the conversation.
Incidentally, I also thought the same equipment, sans ear-
pieces, would also function as a method of determining
latitude, by measuring how dark-skinned the Son of God is
in paintings in churches.
I am, as you may have guessed, a bit bored.
PS Howcome Dr Calderon turns up in the Father Brown
stories and x-files season 5, not to mention Lady Diana
Wales...that G. K. Chesterton fooling around with that
Ferenghi worm-hole I suspect

Weren't you the least bit curious as to how the witches fooled around with her aged p's eyesight? |

Enquiring minds want to know. |

Errr... no, not really. UV light, or microwaves etc
(remembers the bit in Johannes Cabal story where Cabal
(the scientist) shoots the evil wizard as he's winding up to
do a hex and points out that people in labcoats regularly
perform stuff much more useful than with magicians). |

//Is it just me or did the idea tail off toward the end |

Like I said, I was a bit bored. If you were to rephrase that
as petered out, then we could build on that to form an
apostolic range, with presumably "it judased out" as the
worst, for more inconclusive results "it thomased out". |
