Well done Roger for homing in on the start of it.

On your 09:11AM post (spooky): I agree with the first paragraph; come to think of it I agree with the other two also. It was a risk I took knowingly, as despite my efforts to date under my real handle, I feared my credibility with you has been barely above nil, so I had little to lose. It will not change my stance towards you, despite the thinly veiled judgement you just made publicly about me (joking).

But I do so wish we (all of us) could stop and laugh a little occasionally before we grab each other by the throat. Life is too important to waste on perpetual seriousness. And laughing at our own weaknesses, peculiarities and predictability is a good start.

Laughing at failed jokes is a good next step.
