How long has to pass, after he declares himself dictator perpetuo, before delivery of a couple of dozen dorsal puncture wounds? Is a month or two standard?

Free will costs money? Bugger that - I'll be controlled and save money, to spend it as they decree.

Did your mum always have to sit behind the engine?

I reckon it's temporal sprites responsible for many so-called missing items. The items are there all right, but in a different time frame. Like they're taking a trip down memory lane.

Magnet boots - didn't they support the Cure at the Apollo in '79?

Just looked it up. These people need a good hard smack. It's probably the same sort of numpty that joins the queue for one of our shows, but has no understanding of how queues work, vis-a-vis joining at the right end. I'm running of of patience for those pricks.

I think they supported Unsharpened Pencils at the Hammersmith Odeon in '78?

How small, exactly, is a glimmer, and what is its equivalent in SI units?

Priorities: sorted.

Actually, I can. It's the one that doesn't have a gash down the back. Pretty sure that's the one.

Happy to be of service.

New tyres today. Had new water pump last week, and need new brakes and rotors soon. $$$

I had a similar feeling towards a college mate's dad, and would definitively have paid a visit if I'd been back. I was at Rikki's place once, when his mum asked him if the Alpine man had been. His dad said Rikki wouldn't know, as the Alpine man wasn't chic enough for Rikki 😆 Summed him up!

I suppose all that power, condensed into one narrow beam, amounts to more luminous oomph than you'd think.

My next, thinking-out-loud, question would be: what's the efficiency of such a laser? Might be time to go down a rabbit hole :)
