Like Malware's copper-clad NBN, the pond has had a catastrophic failure, has been forced to step out of the tent, and may be gone some considerable time.
Fortunately, thanks to New Zealanders and the Donald, chaos and loonery will continue elsewhere.
Enjoy.
And the pond will return in due course...
aaiiieee!!!!
ReplyDeleteMay the return be speedy and refreshed.
Gawdspeed Dorothy.
Ah, so that's what's making all the floods :-(
DeleteLook after yourself, you are valued.

We'll sorely miss you. Whatever it is, I hope it works out well for you. All sarcasm aside, your blog is one of the best things on the internet. I read it every day and rejoice.
ReplyDeleteDitto here Anon!
DeleteAnd here too. May the FSM be with you, DP.
DeleteHope all turns out well & you will be back soon. It's nice to be guided through the idiocy in the commentariat with a bit of humour.
ReplyDeletePolonius, Bromancer, Oreo, "Ned", Malware, Dame Slap, Onion Muncher have all become part of my life and I'd hate to lose them. "chaos and loonery will continue" indeed, but without your lucid commentary, it isn't the same. I wish you well
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to your return
ReplyDeleteSuch dire news Dot. Here's hoping you return refreshed and rejuvenated.
ReplyDeleteI must confess it's a wonder you've been able to keep up the pace given the fetid nature of the habitat you've been frequenting.
All the very best.
So sorry to hear you may be unwell, DP, and wish you a good recovery.
ReplyDeleteThe only upside is that it gives me a chance to catch up with your posts. My own issues have put me behind in your must-read posts. So I have a chance to catch up.
Look forward both to the catch-up and your return. You are right. Peak lunacy is set to continue.
All the best for a FTTP-quality recovery, Dorothy, and a refreshing break from the reptilia. But how will Dante navigate the Inferno without Virgil? We're still only on the 5th Circle, listening to various arm-breakers and wall-punchers:
ReplyDelete'Fixed in the slime they say "Sullen were we
In the sweet air that in the Sun rejoices,
Filled as we were with bitter fumes
And sullen we are, in the black mire."
This litany they gargle in their throats
For they cannot get a word out whole.'
So much loonacy still to go...
:)³ The pond might fuse another modem if this is the reward, FrankD ,,,
DeleteWhatever you do: don't eat the dog livers!
ReplyDeleteThank you for all your astute observations and acerbic wit...it will be sorely missed. Get well and come back soon.
