A very old man once told me he couldn’t stomach the disdain kids-these-days showed for the value of monet*.

[excerpt]

me: i don’t understand sir, what do you mean?
old man: here you belligerent fool, i ‘ll give you an example…

mutters to self… chews his tobacco stained gums for a while and continues..

old man: Take 12K or as the yanks call it 12Gs. Now what is that? Give the monet* the respect it deserves. It’s Twelve Thousand …… more mumbling and chewing
me: …smiling nervously in the awkward silence
old man: errrmm, who are you darkie?

He might have been a racist senile idiot but he made a bloody good point.

After a concerted effort from my colleagues and I - we have established ourselves as a formidable team with an excellent product to be reckoned with.

This, as well as securing “Twelve point Five Million US Dollars ($12,500,00)” in a second round of funding, ensures we ‘ll be here for a lot longer, bringing you more people, more sessions and more of those 1 minute wonders we call woome sessions. Come on over and see if you can WooMe

Due to this …

twitter fail,

I can’t do this ..

is feeling jubilant

And so ….

I turn to this outdated medium called blogging. Kind of like the telephone: - used to call mama cos she won’t get a twitter account despite my best efforts.

Today’s title was chosen in deference to @cv who detests the use of the term µblogging to describe tweets*.

* tweets are twitter update messages.

enjoy the minute
