Pondering a nap, but it's awful late for one. But I don't want to just go to sleep this early. That could be bad. *sigh*

Melbourne winter.
I've got thermal long johns under my CAT work pants.
Long sleeve thermal under my fleecy jumper.
2 pairs of socks on.
Neck warmer
Wooly beanie
(I need to spend 5 minutes undoing myself just to have a wee!)
It reminds me of that Dave Allen sketch where he was dressed as a knight.
It took him forever to undress for bed, by the time he took everything off, it was morning and he had to get dressed again!

A straight trade, five sighted lonely years (and counting) for twenty unsighted ones in female arms? In a heartbeat.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Rob, don't waste your time expecting someone to convert.
People will only change if there's something missing from their life.
If someone's happy in their "world", they have nothing to gain and everything to lose.

I think they do have things to gain, things they don't know they are missing. But equally they probably have things to lose too. Religion blackmails you a lot like that.
I'm not going to hold my breath or pressure anyone. I just run the sweepstake.
