how, oh how does Brian Eno do your head in can you please tell us.

i'm hoping it's something to do with not being able to figure out one of his systems or something.

He exists is enough, surely?

There's nothing to figure out with anything he has ever done, all obvious, all antonyms, all stolen. Talented he may be but he's nothing more than a brand with a death rattle of chrome plated platitudes.

Being in the office between Christmas and New Year, with hardly anyone else here. It’s a weird phase of the year; a kind of stalled temporal limbo, a time out of Time…incognitum hactenus…fluorescent tubes provide an ersatz daylight that jars dissonantly with the darkness outside…potted plants enjoy an eternal summer that fears no September…incessant air-con hum...seconds pass like hours and hours like seconds: the clock ticks louder and louder, a malign autistic percussionist…drums, drums in the deep…we cannot get out…they are coming…

Perhaps I should get back to work.

Bad luck on the sneezing, I often get that when I have a cold. Beconase inhalers are meant to be more for allergies I think, but they can help a bit when you're got a winter virus IME.

Now that actual spastics are no longer called spastics, is it OK to call people spastics again? It was the best insult of 1982, by a country mile.

My missus often says things like "I can't get up, I've got a cat sitting on me". And then gives me evil looks when I take the cat off her lap and drop it on the floor.

people who, not out of necessity or any particular consideration for the subject matter which may or may not actually require such exaggerated formal device, but rather, seemingly, out of purely stylistic over-indulgence, or some kind of mislead childish impulse to show off through convolution and/or obfuscation, more than occasionally, in fact habitually, almost invariably, write like this.

my boss does this. legalistic / local council background. When I got here 9 years ago everything was written like that! I guess it gives me a purpose...
