What is in Kelvin's Head?

  • Tales of the City #9

    The scene is Great Western Road, at 10 am – just after morning prayer. A street cleaner in a council jacket runs down the street hollaring at me after morning prayer

    Street Cleaner: “Oi, oi!”

    I turn wondering what I’ve done.

    Self: “Um, yes?”

    Street Clearner: “Was it youse that was in the paper? It was, it was youse”

    His eyes light up, he beams a toothless smile and responds: “Hey man, hey, that was just great.”

    He’s referring to this piece in the Herald.

  • Preaching to the choir

    I know that this is preaching to the choir, but don’t you find it strange when people learn how to use e-mail but not the web? I’ve met three people in the last couple of weeks who told me that they used e-mail a lot, but had never learned to use the web. I cannot…
