Thank god we've rid ourselves of these spurious data artifacts. It's funny, but they almost seemed to make some kind of pattern, like those radio pulses from quasars. Anyway, this signal is a lot cleaner. No noise.

Charming. I spend hours scrubbing that signal and do I get a word of thanks? No, you put it down to "data artifacts".

I thought you said you licked them clean!

And where, precisely, did I say such a thing, pray? It has taken me many long years to attain the level of perfection that I have achieved with scourer and wire brush.

licked, indeed. The very idea.

I hope you finished off by polishing the signal with a nice buffing cloth made of a 60%/40% mix of sasquatch and haggis fur.

Did you know that the only way to catch a haggis is to put salt on its tail?

Does this work on a Manx haggis??

― Geoffrey Judge ( Ivor Feltersnatch), Wednesday, 4 January 2006 12:41 (nineteen years ago)

Not so well, no. But who in their right mind would want to catch a Manx haggis anyway? Vicious little blighters, with their whopping great gnashers.

Did you know that due to years of genetic isolation from the haggis gene pool they have developed a method of keeping their teeth short by gnawing on the tram wheels??

one suspects this had something to do with their tailess state ... when once mistaken their bottom for their front ...

two weeks pass...

I hate when people do that to me...
