Eavesdropping highlights from the last 24 hours:
- “Somehow I suspect book lovers feel the same way about Harry Potter as music lovers feel about Jeff Buckley.” (Alastair Rankine)
- Overheard while walking past a house where young boys were playing noisily: “I’m the birthday boy so I have to be team leader.”
- “Someone in my office just said ‘cyberspace’. I hope I’m not paying them.” (abacab)
- In response to my comment, “Stilgherrian is thinking about things that geeks think about”, someone who should probably remain nameless said: “Most geeks I know think about banging Natalie Portman in a blow-up-pool filled with custard…”
- “Stilgherrian, one day in the future, your life will confuse historians.” (Nick Hodge)
