    I was wondering who it might be that wrote a book of poems in praise of laptop touch-pads. Anyone know who might have done something like that, or where they might work?

      Someone with way too much time on their hands?

        It's not really work, it's just time-filler to give the patients something to do. ;)

            I did consider the "clinically insane" option you went for, but decided it was probably the OP trying to get up some interest in his own book. I don't need nut-jobs following me around. Again. :laugh:

                Beating basket weavers is not acceptable behaviour. Except in Offley.

                      Yes, but they should have been more specific!!

                        Sounds more like 'everybody's gotta be somebodies'.

                          You're probably right about that. Instead of abiding by the wise saying of olden days that "Necessity is the mother of invention", clowns like that turn it around backward, and have it that "Invention is the mother of necessity". And what a mother it is!
