And for once, it's not Microsoft!

I'm sure you've all read by now Mike's seemingly-facetious blog entry here.

You probably just skimmed over it, thinking it was innocent enough, but I saw through it, and the jig's up Mike, because I'm going to unveil your diabolical scheme right here, right now!

No, really, honestly, Mike, it was supposed to say "DEIFIABLE GENIUS REVEALS PLAN FOR WORLD LIBERATION".

It must have been a keyboard error.

Actually, a rather busy day here.
Attended an old freind and neighbour's funeral, got home and a message to say my daughter was in labour, drove 75 miles to take my wife over.
Get home, and I find that Mike is taking over the world.

Oh well, he can't do much worse than the present lot.....as long as he doesn't expect to be worshipped on Sundays.
I have an hour free on Wednesday evenings, might be able to fit him in between Susan and Offler....

Just got a phone call. It's another false alarm.

Wait, I think I've got it.

You know how if you get a hundred monkeys with typewriters and enough time one of the monkeys will produce the complete works of Shakespeare? Well, once you factor in statistics and probability, if you repeated the experiment many times you would find that the time required varies, and as well as the near-average results you would also have some near-infinity results and some instant results - occasionally the monkeys will produce the unlikely result on the first bash at the keyboard.

So, Mike, what's obviously happened if that one of my kids must have been bashing at the keyboard while I wasn't there, and in line with the statistically unlikely monkeys, has managed to create this topic, along with the first post and poll question, by sheer chance.

So there's really no need to ban me. Hurrah.

And even though, as I've just demonstrated, it had nothing to do with me anyway, according to Duck Theory if it looks a diabolical plan for world domination, and it sounds like a diabolical plan for world domination, then it probably is a diabolical plan for world domination. So it's all really your fault, Mike.
