A blog about, among other things, imaginary ideas - What ifs? and Imagine thats. What if photographs looked nothing like what we see with our eyes? Imagine that the Berlin Wall had never come down. What if we were the punchline of an interminable joke? All contributions welcome.

Why water? said the Sage. Why air? said the Fish. Why either of you? said the Stone. Why all of you? said the Cosmos. "Why not? What's water but the generated soul?" said nothing, nowhere.
ReplyDeleteBesides, it wouldn't have been much fun for JC to have had to supply the party wine from, say, goat's milk or sweaty legionnaire's oil which, as we all know, curdle horribly in the heat.
Because the value of the fine structure constant is approximately 1/137.
ReplyDeleteIt would be, wouldn't it?
ReplyDeletegood question. As a chemist i knew once said, "I have become disillusioned with water. Acetone is a much better solvent." Perhaps it's just that life isn't perfect, so we have to put up with water.
ReplyDeleteBecause someone's out of gin, I suppose.
ReplyDeleteBecause otherwise Ribena would be horrid and the Olympic springboard diving competition would be carnage.
ReplyDelete(You're just taking the piss now, Bryan, aren't you? You can't just write anything and expect us to come up with a dazzling debate, you know...)
I believe that in Norfolk you will find water inbred.
ReplyDeleteI jsut did my first post on Norfolk at Nourishin Obscurity.
ReplyDeleteYou can do one on Kent in reply if you like Bryan....
Norfolk & good....
ReplyDeleteWithout water, we wouldn't have most of our greatest landscape painters. D'eau. Oh. D'oh. Everything is three or less degrees of separation from Homer Simpson. Think about it.
