Yes jokes don't get any older than that one, found inscribed on the walls of the tomb of Naputapu, Pharaoh of Egypt during the hessian crisis of 3,300 BCE. He loved a good joke did Naputapu, but unfortunately

I hadn't seen Andy in more than a week, which was odd considering the prom was the following night. I tried his phone. It went straight to voicemail. I left a casual message asking him what he was up to.

Old people are the best aren't we. I might be heavily biased, but I'm always right. It comes from living back in the good old days I expect. You won't remember them because you're young and therefore inferior

There had to be something wrong with my brain. I'd suffered a head injury six years ago, maybe it was the cause. Looking back at what Andy had shown me in the library I knew I should have worked it out.

I'm going to open by relating what I think is the funniest text message I have ever received. You may not agree, because you had to be there really. To fully appreciate it I suppose you'd have to know

What can I say about my senior year? Not a lot really. I avoided the social whirl of fraternities and sororities. I stayed away from alcohol. I didn't attend many student gatherings. Only those Andy dragged

President Macron says France is at war with Covid-19. So we can expect France to surrender very shortly then. Yes I'm having a pop at the French again, again. I can't help it. I think it might be a form

I believe I may have unintentionally given a false impression. Several perhaps. Making myself out to be Sherlock Holmes, while Crystal and Andy were my Watson doubles. That's far from the case. Thanks

Right that's it. Thanks to some nostalgic listening to 80's music last night, I've fallen out with The Clash. I used to love them, back in the eighties. Now I've become far more discerning and started

Crystal wasn't my mother. She was much more. My big sister and my best friend all rolled into one. When I did something which made her sad or angry I would do all I could to make amends. Make sure I never

Since I stopped taking the yellow ones my mind has cleared. I've removed the hold I put on my plans for global domination and decided to work on the more malleable younger generation. Concentrating on

After Crystal was semi-official, with regards to child services, there were more temporary placements with her. Those placements could be anywhere from an overnight to a couple of weeks, while they sorted

You know people are always going on about having had a life changing experience. Well I've just had an underwear changing experience. That's similar to a life changing experience except something actually

Before we set off for the Yakama Reservation, we first paid a visit to my parents graves. It had become a tradition. Once a month Crystal would drive me there. Initially she did it for me and I did it

I'm getting really enthused about Covid-19, the coronavirus. I'm even thinking of friending it on social media. It's bound to be on there by now. I want, no I need, Covid-19 to be rampaging across the

It was typical of Crystal that she worked closely with Emily on the design of her castle. There was a lot of pink involved, plus some purple and gold. It even had a drawbridge. It had already begun to

Yes it's that time of the day when my medication has worn off and no one at the facility can prevent me from writing balls all over the bathroom using chicken entrails. When you're writing meaningless

I later found out the only reason Crystal allowed Andy to set foot in her home was because he had made me smile. I pointed out to her she was the one who made me smile the most. Thanks to her, my facial

Well yesterday I had a pop at the Krauts. Right now I expect they're polishing up the Panzers ready to invade me. They've been quiet for too long. Something's going on. You can't trust them. You can't

The two of us were still laughing when Crystal got back. Watching the replay in slow motion, we found the exact moment when boot met balls. Andy thought he might use that still as his screensaver. Once
