Book [modified]

Someone was talking about books recently and that reminded me I read a book once, it was about a chap called Spot who had a ball...a big red ball. If I recall correctly he was given it at the start and he liked it. The story was fairly complex, as you can imagine, and essentially examined the fragile relationship between Spot and his ball. Don't know if it's a relevant recollection but I like to feel like I'm contributing somehow. Bryce -- modified at 19:04 Tuesday 14th November, 2006

I believe that Spot was a dog. I've read that book, it's a classic...

well was he _really_ a dog? i feel it was more of a metaphor. for umm....databases, or linked lists or collections of some sort ...or perhaps errant programming practises. (something i'm sure you never engage in Christian ;) ) Bryce

I'm somewhat of an expert there, perhaps I need to write a book ? :P

I brought the Pinky and the Brain box set back from the US, been watching it a bit with the kids, so I have to say, the whole world, with me in charge.

Did I ? I don't recall that. There's no doubt in my mind that a degree of climate change is mans doing. I'm just not easily fooled by Al Gore's pretty pictures into thinking the end is near.

Yes, NZ and Tasmania jokes are interchangable. And, I do have sheep on the property.

It means that someone has been stupid enough to buy a dog, I guess.

I'm so confused. My recollection is of some poor boy and girl trying to overcome some obstacle and the boy getting killed. The girl then chased after the insurance settlement and spiral into a decadent lifestyle.
