There is no doubt this will be resolved.

Shame they can’t realize this, accept it and correct it now.

But knowing as I do, and you will, that it’ll be hunky dory tout suite…that’s swell!

Consider it like an unforeseen diversion on route to the Milk Bar, and you will discover answers, new features and have one heck of an adventure on the way.

You have been anointed with this appointed benefit, this VIP reward, and it didn’t cost a penny – just a moment’s pause and imagination in bundles.

We are deeply satisfied….are you?

It was such a good quarter.

Why should you care!?

Super-normal and super-abnormal numbers.

I made up part of that, but it’s not far off what we use in advanced and experimental mathematics.

What we know we tend to stick to, to defend and not think beyond.

When we untie from these pre-ordained knowledge chains, we are free to think anew and solve “unsolvable” problems.

How utterly delightful and tantalizingly appetizing!

Up above the wall, below the rock face, under the stars.

Those scenes, the ones we created by being there, were so worthwhile.

For the memories and stories we would tell ourselves and others.

Over the years, before fears and seared vegan steaks, we all gathered at the weekend and drove for hours until we got….somewhere.

The place we arrived at was always fascinating and memorable, for the simple reason, We Were There.
