Welcome back, gang! Er, can I call y'all “gang”? Is that too informal or too assumptive about your willingness for complicity in my extra curricular activities? Eh, too bad. Once you're in the gang, there's only one way out. Now, while you're letting that sink in ...

I was hanging out with my family over the holidays, explaining that I wasn't sad or sick, but had been rubbing my eye because there was some dust or a hair or something stuck behind the eyeball. It was quite uncomfortable.

Are Friends Electric? (Guest post by Gunwallace)
HippieVan at 12:00AM, April 29, 2016
“Well, are they?”
Gary Numan (and Tubeway Army) posed that question in 1979. These days it has more relevance that ever before.
“It's cold outside, and the paint's peeling offa my walls.”
As winter approaches in the Southern Hemisphere (winter is coming) my thoughts naturally turn a little ...
