Slightly angled mirrors

Slightly angled mirrors
The banana tinted bookcase with chartreuse shaped panelling accompanied by Phil and his harmonica. Travelling along the much straightened highway between the places they came from and the one they’re going to.
Wellington is in New Zealand and many outhouses or sheds.
The tide was turning and no one thought to warn it of the wall round the corner.
He said can you tell the time! I replied what to do want me to say to it?
Today is only following yesterday because it’s never had any inclination to do anything else. Waterway to go, but you don’t see them in a hospital if you go for a root canal doing.
Sunday was the other day, but on the television news it didn’t say which the other was.
In my search of long forgotten words I couldn’t write any in to Google.
Wellington and add another wellington, all that does is give you an ‘S on the end of one wellington. My doctor told me to pull myself together! My words to him were I would but the zippers stuck, why I’m not famous I don’t know, having a zip the full length of my body.
There’s a slight pause here ok, it’s nothing bad, I’m just going to the err small room/water closet/W.C. or whatever you call it.
It says “Microsoft office word 2007” but that’s three words and four numbers?
Is it just my imagination? I can’t imagine it being anyone else’s, I suppose you COULD imagine it could be, but you’d have to have some imagination.
Malcolm! That’s the name I’ve being trying to remember for weeks, not much use now, but at least it’s wrote down here for me to back read one day if I forget again.
Maisy dotes and dozy dotes
And little lambsy divies,
That was a slight intermission and if you don’t know the rest of the song/words, look it up and there’s some variations on it 
SO! Have you read this far down yet?
Just to let you know, that this cheese sandwich is going down well, it took 3 torpedos’s, 2 mid ships and one aft.
many’s the time I’ve thought that! And then it’s gone, then it’s no point in trying to remember as would it be the same thought if you did remember.
You hear people say IN TIME, but it’s IM in time, so are they thick or something and if some are so bright, why do they need light bulbs in the house.
Now regarding the title subject line:- Slightly angled mirrors, well there’s nothing what so ever in this thread to do with that title, apart from the fact that it’s the title and I’m informing you about it here, I suppose I could have written something, but then it wouldn’t have been a mystery would it. Plus it’s slightly hard to make a mystery up about some mirrors and make it interesting, now some bright spark will say humorously “you could look into it” – chortle! I’d have never thought of that one myself.
If your mind went blank? How would you know, I mean, would you just croak it or stand still like a statue? And if it came back, who’s to say it was yours because you’d not remember as it would be a reinstall and you don’t have a back up copy. By now you’ll be realising that this post is a load of nothing as usual but I wonder how many who read this, knowing the outcome! Still will read on to the end. You will also notice that this post isn’t related to any of the NOTICE threads, even though I’ve wrote notice three times, I had to clarify that position, so that no one would get confused.
Well I suppose that’s enough gobbledegook for now, will he come out with something serious? I wouldn’t bet on it, I’d scare myself sh(gap)less if I did that.
Now before anyone posts a reply or comment, let’s be honest and did you actually read it all.

My last journal entry of two thousand and nine and I can't think of owt daft t'write - bummer!
Ah well! t'is not with a great loss that I bid farewell to 2009.
For along comes 2010 and the daftness shall continue undiminished, as why change perfection 
Remember! a smile a day only uses 17 muscles
the adage that it takes something like 43 muscles to frown but only 17 muscles to smile, ergo, we should just smile because it's easier.
there are only about 36 named muscles of facial expression, and they're not all involved in smiling and frowning.(a "2" in parentheses means the muscle is bilateral, "1" means it's unpaired):
Auricularis anterior (2)
Auricularis posterior (2)
Auricularis superior (2)
Buccinator (2)
Corrugator supercilii (2)
Depressor anguli oris (2)
Depressor labii inferioris (2)
Depressor septi nasi (1)
Frontalis (1)
Levator anguli oris (2)
Levator labii superioris (2)
Levator labii superioris alaeque nasi (2)
Mentalis (1)
Nasalis (2)
Orbicularis oculi (2)
Orbicularis oris (1)
Platysma (1)
Procerus (1)
Risorius (2)
Zygomaticus major (2)
Zygomaticus minor (2)
So which ones are responsible for smiling and/or frowning?
NO NEED to answer - JUST keep SMILING OK!

A Bit of String
Posted Nov 19, 2009
A bit of string.
What's the difference between a short piece of string and a long piece of string ? Could it be that the short piece of string is smaller in length than the long piece of string, or then again, it might be that the long piece of string is in fact longer than the short piece of string. But on looking at it, the short piece of string could be a long piece of string with the longer piece of string being longer and from the other side, the longer piece of string could be a short piece of string with the shorter piece of string being even shorter ?.
Only having the two pieces of string makes it hard to distinguish which could be referred as the short piece of string, plus the same argument applies to the long piece of string, as it can only be the longer piece of string or the shorter piece of string and it's also 50 50 on which could be classed as the long piece of string in any case. It is pointless having a measuring device to determine which is the longer or short by length because neither can be denoted as the long piece of string or the short piece of string.
Now knowing that the longer piece of string will reach further than the short piece of string is irrelevant , because it could well have been the short piece of string that was actually the length needed, making the short piece of string the right length piece of string, which in turn would cancel out it being called the short piece of string. If this wasn't the case, the long piece of string could have been the one needed, but it might have still been too long or again! still not long enough and that then would have to have had a name change to the piece of string that's not long enough, but longer than the shorter piece of string or the piece of string that's just a little too long and has some spare. Now some might think if they lion the two pieces of string together might simplify things, but you can't really go about saying two pieces of string one short and one long joined together with a knot in the middle, because the knot would not be in the middle and then the conundrum comes in again, a knot with a short piece of string at one end and a long piece of string at the other end.
This would not solve anything, as it can no way be called “A bit of string” and it would be a pointless exercise writing “what's the difference between a short piece of string, a knot and another piece of string that is longer after the knot”, taking in to view that another person looking from the opposite side would see a long piece of string, a knot and a smaller piece of string attached after the knot, especially if someone undoes the knot and that would make it a complete waste of time, but at least some of you will have had to read all the way down here to find that out eh!

Saddness in the extreme
Posted Aug 14, 2009
http://www.phobialist.com/
there isn't one!where's my PHOBIA!
The fear of Being Normal!
How cruel can the world get
to live with an incurable PHOBIA that doesn't exist, I'm not an hypochondriac! I know I'm poorly. 24 hours - 7 days a week - 52 weeks a year, even in my sleep it affects me.
NEVER to be able to say the sentence "anything for a normal life". To cry when I see on television or on a website the words "normal service will be resumed as soon as possible" knowing it can never be for me.The Fear of Being Normal!
good job it ain't catching though,wouldn't want to start a pandemic.
No counselling please,I'll just have to be brave, grin and bear it and hope that it doesn't surface often.
(as if I'm bothered)

From out of the mouth's of .....are they born adults ?
Posted Aug 2, 2009
My Mam was telling me the other day, that one of her friends was talking about her grandson, who is aged 3 years old. He is shortly going to become an older brother, whereas the grandmas said to him, your going to have a little visitor soon aren’t you! He replied Yes, I’m having a brother and I’ve bought him a present, BUT I hope he’s bought me one as well!
She followed it up by saying that a few week ago his aunt and uncle took him to the East coast for the day and during the trip, he started to wriggle his way out of the child harness attached in the back seat of the car, so the uncle HAD to pull on the hard shoulder of the motorway to readjust it. At which a police car pulled up behind them, to which, the officer asked if there was any problem. The uncle explaining about the child and harness etc, the officer leant in to the back of the car and said to the young’un you know it’s naughty to climb out of the seatbelt don’t you, at which the lad in a sobbing tone said yes sheepishly and that its there to keep you safe, so you mustn’t climb out because it’s against the law ok, again a sheepish yes, at which the officer winked at the uncle and carried on his way.
Nothing was said all the rest of the day, but when they took him home in the evening and they walked in to his house, he went up to his Mam and said “I’ve been arrested!”.
It’s as they say, kids aren’t kids for 2 minutes now a days
