Beware the lollipop of Mediocrity - Lick it once and You'll Suck Forever.

Two things, one strange the other wonderful:

So if you're here in Oz it's Autumn; The leaves are a tumbling and the weather is a turnin' cool. As I strolled home from my local shops the other day, it was cool but sunny out and there was no wind so it was a pleasant day in all. The colours of the turning leaves were full fire and gold and the day was quiet, with no traffic noise to disturb the peace. I was really enjoying the walk.

 

As I came to an Oak tree a breeze blew up and rustled the leaves on the branches and I stopped to look up, just as what seemed like a thousand leaves leapt from their anchors on the branches and fell all about me. The rustling noise they made sounded like hundreds and thousands of tiny voices chattering. It was one of those rare and very magical moments which passed in a few seconds. With leaves still falling about me, I continued on my way home but now I was fully smiling.

 

Now for the strange ...

As I sometimes do, I went to the porn shop the other day. I like to keep up with the new trends in sex and especially the bondage goodies. On this particular day there was a group of four other shoppers there, two girls about 18 and (apparently) their boyfriends. The two girls were obviously new to all this and one was giggling quite hard while the other one just looked and picked up and generally investigated everything.

 

The giggling one turned at one point to her female companion and laughing, said "this place is really disgusting". Her boyfriend turned to her and said "But really, you've either seen or done everything in these videos". She fell quite silent after that but somehow I don't think he got any that night. My thinking was that if she didn't like it she should have left, the door was open after all.
