  • H Henry Minute

    Apart from someone elses' name, or Spike Milligans' "I told you I was ill!" I have just listened to a radio programme on BBC Radio 4 that had Roger Law of Fluck and Law (Spitting Image) fame in it. Peter Fluck, it seems has moved down to the West Country and taken up stone carving. He apparently told Roger Law that he was making them both a headstone. Rogers' would say "Roger and Out", whilst his own would say "Petered Out". So I was wondering, if you could pick your own epitaph (max 5 words), what would you choose? If I was a Buddhist I could have "Back in a Minute", for example.

    Henry Minute Do not read medical books! You could die of a misprint. - Mark Twain Girl: (staring) "Why do you need an icy cucumber?" “I want to report a fraud. The government is lying to us all.”

        "Many : not conversant with mathematical studies, imagine that because it [the Analytical Engine] is to give results in numerical notation, its processes must consequently be arithmetical, numerical, rather than algebraical and analytical. This is an error. The engine can arrange and combine numerical quantities as if they were letters or any other general symbols; and it fact it might bring out its results in algebraical notation, were provisions made accordingly." Ada, Countess Lovelace, 1844

                                    Apart from someone elses' name, or Spike Milligans' "I told you I was ill!" I have just listened to a radio programme on BBC Radio 4 that had Roger Law of Fluck and Law (Spitting Image) fame in it. Peter Fluck, it seems has moved down to the West Country and taken up stone carving. He apparently told Roger Law that he was making them both a headstone. Rogers' would say "Roger and Out", whilst his own would say "Petered Out". So I was wondering, if you could pick your own epitaph (max 5 words), what would you choose? If I was a Buddhist I could have "Back in a Minute", for example.

                                      "please insert desk 3" or " 404. Life not found." "Am I there yet?" "Pull my finger." "I can see your house from here."
