Oh it says worse things as well, but I don't like to listen to (or read) idle gossip...

Listen, can you hear that? It's a pig requesting clearance for take-off...

I'm OK Sharky 
. I'm just verrrry tired. Once I figure out what I need to do tomorrow I can sleep. Problem is..I'm tired. Nice and cyclical.

It's not that I don't listen to malicious and slanderous gossip, you know. I just don't listen to idle gossip...

Hi, Az: We missed "Bowling for Columbine." Wanted to see it, didn't get around to it. So many movies, so little time.
Last saw "Dirty Pretty Things," which I liked, but not as much as "My Beautiful Laundrette" (still my fave Frears), and "Secret Lives of Dentists," which was good.
I'm OK, too much work, but that's a constant, so why b**** about it?
The weather has gotten gorgeous, though! Lovely, sunny, warm but not hot, and the humidity has gone bye-bye.

What eaxctly would idle gossip be? Gossip that always uses the lift instead of the stairs?

Idle gossip is just rumours about that which you already knew. Malicious gossip is actually interesting...

Ahh. So it is the gossipers who are lazy, because they can't find anything new to gossip about.

Absolutely. We once manged to start a rumour that I was having an affair with my boss Al, just for a laugh. People are suprisingly gullible and lazy when it comes to romour and innuendo.

Or even rumour as well, one assumes

Cheap shot. People are lazy about their sources of amusement these days as well...

I've never claimed to be anything but lazy. It has been pointed out that my posture at my desk looks less "busy worker" and more "mid-afternoon snooze".

Ha ha ha. That's classic.

I think the main problem was that I have the "mid afternoon snooze" look at 0930 in the morning...

Hmm. I reckon your boss needs to invest in a cattle prod then...

Boss? Boss? Oh, you mean the small mousy thing behind me. Frankly I think application of electricity would do her more good than me
