More instructions - 21:51
In the vein of those oh so important
product
warning
labels
(eg, on a packet of nuts "warning: contains nuts"). Tonight I had a dinner at
Tilleys with some of my friends,
celebrating my impending birthday. Rebecca and Ben gave me a coffee grinder
(very cool, now I have to decide if I want to keep it at home or work). The
instructions with the grinder include the helpful suggestion "3. The coffee
mill cannot be switched on until the cover has been places.". This brings to
mind the
travelling
gnomes, you may not use your coffee grinder before the cover has been on a
world tour.

Grow a beard or exercise, or something. - 18:06
The World Beard and Moustache
Championships will be held in Berlin next year, also you can buy a
documentary dvd from the last world championships in 2003.
So not everyone does as much exercise as I do, it makes me happy to see people
realise
how positive it can be though.
Heh, Shrub just cant get it
right.
Ok so I may be posting stuff just to keep the November diary entry count up
there, but I was amused by all of the above, or pleased, or whatever. I also
notice I need to add more categories here, I am writing entries in the
various category a lot.
