Sigh ...

I went freelance so that I could avoid working until all hours ... At least I am paid for every minute I am there and cabcharges are thrown at me with cheer.

In further proof that the news has become as easy to predict as most American mainstream film plots, I offer the following.

Brammers on Saturday: That was a terrible accident! I'm relieved Massa looks as though he will be all right. I give it less than 48 hours before people are calling for Michael Schumacher to take the vacant drive.

Mr Brammers: *Starts stopwatch*

36 hours later ...

Mr Brammers: You win.

Just watched the sports news on a commercial channel here.

Sportscaster: In astonishing news, voices are calling for Michael Schumacher to return to Ferrari after Massa's shocking accident.

Mr Brammers: That's not news. Stumpy on the sofa broke that three days ago.

Brammers: *Raises moderately stumpy arms in victory*

Brammers 10:2

And he spake unto the man clothed with linen, and said, Go in between the wheels, even under the cherub, and fill thine hand with coals of fire from between the cherubims, and scatter them over the city. And he went in in my sight.

Peace,
Bubba

Alas, Bubba, the gospel of Brammers would be more along the lines of:

And the prophet spoke to the people and he did say, 'Have you washed your hands? That's not washed, that's lightly rinsed. Honestly, have you no idea about epidemiology? Hygiene is not an option! Oh, and be kind to each other. While still being firm on the cleanliness thing.'

And the people looked at the prophet, and shook their heads, and went off in search of someone who sounded more impressive, even if they were less accurate.
