And Then A Message Or Two...

   May I direct you to a couple of comments to the last post regards co-co. Anonymous Rick rightly points out an error in the relentless NHS, blessed be its name, mailings aimed at brain beating you into surrendering for the quickly cobbled together chemi cocktail.
   And to Ripper for the links. Please take the time to take a look before you surrender to swabs and jabs  - then, as I’ve typed before, it’s your choice; not the medias. Again, ask yourself why isn’t any of this available to us via the media? Why are they so afraid to let us know wot others are finding/thinking? Why the blackout on the ‘other side’ of the argument? 
NOTE: Let’s see if Bitchute will let me embederate. That worked then...

          
   Anyhoo, let’s have a humorous break  from swaby jaby land and may I thank Bernard from Bucks for reminding me, via a comment on Going Postal, of this piece of verse. You gotta laugh right now as the alternative is co-co misery:

If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port,
And the bus is interrupted as a very last resort,
And the address of the memory makes your hard C disk abort,
Then the socket packet pocket has an error to report!

If your cursor finds a menu item followed by a dash,
And the double-clicking icon puts your window in the trash,
And your data is corrupted 'cause the index doesn't hash,
Then your situation's hopeless, and your system's gonna crash!

If the label on the cable on the table at your house,
Says the network is connected to the button on your mouse,
But your packets want to tunnel on another protocol,
That's repeatedly rejected by the printer down the hall,

And your screen is all distorted by the side effects of gauss
So your icons in the window are as wavy as a souse,
Then you may as well reboot and go out with a bang,
'Cause as sure as I'm a poet, the sucker's gonna hang!

When the copy of your floppy's getting sloppy on the disk,
And the microcode instructions cause unnecessary risk,
Then you have to flash your memory and you'll want to RAM your ROM.
Quickly turn off the computer and be sure to tell your mom.

I noticed your
Funny Quote of the Day:
An optimist is a fellow who believes a housefly is looking for a way to get out.

It triggered a memory:
One summer years ago a mate and me were sitting in the house with the door open cos it was so warm, when in flew a bluebottle.
Mate sprang to his feet, flailing his arms about, and bluebottle went back out.
He reckoned that if you did this immediately, bluebottle would think "oops, shouldn't have gone in there" and go out again. But if you left it five or ten minutes it would have adjusted to thinking it had every right to be there, and you would have to think of another way to get rid of it.
Experience has led me to believe his theory is right.

Politicians are like bluebottles. After all, mad hancock is still there after having broken the law. All we can do now is splat him with a newspaper. Where's the jackal when you need him?

Rick,
The thing that always amazes me re flies is they enter, trouble free, through the door - a rather large aperture - then, when attempting to leave, repeatedly beat their heads against a closed window a mere couple of feet from the gaping open door. Seems it's the reverse with co-co; ventilation good, windows open, so it's obvious co-co can find its way out but not in. Go figure.
As for that nice Mr Hop-an-Hope, I'd prefer a few minutes with him and his ilk armed with a four foot scaffold poll rather than a rolled newspaper. Now go an' get that bloody jab!! Don't you watch TV? There's only a slack handful of us left to poison - according to the media.
