smokingbootThings are slow, so I thought I'd waste a couple of seconds on the starship meme that's going round. Trouble is, I can't think of a good name for a starship commanded by Smokingboot. I started with the USS Termagent or the USS Campari and ended with the Shotten Moth, the Wawatutu, or the Sphinctergator.
And I can hear Phil Collins burbling 'Another day in Paradise,' in my head. Something is very wrong...

Jugglers and acrobats perform feats that are little short of astounding astounding.
Then there are the dawn fairs at Needle-Point on the edge of the Carressing Desert. Hundreds of people waiting on the clifftops for the first rays of the rising sun to strike the the black rocks, then leaping off the cliffs like a glittering flock of seabirds to catch the updrafts in their irridecent parawings.
There are times when I really miss being there.
