So, like, ya know how smart bombs crash into buildings and everything? Would smart vans do that, too?

Yes, as long as they have unsmart drivers and very dodgy steering.

. . . 'cause if only stupi vans do that, then why are the bombs not called stupid bombs. Like, a smart bomb wouldn't hit anything.

I thought smart bombs were meant to kill all the people and leave the buildings unharmed.

So would smart vans do that, too? And then what about cobalt vans? Wow, this is getting complicated.

"fess up"? What kind of language is that for a person of the Caledonian persuasion? I fear that too many American cops and robbers programmes are having an undue influence.

VANity fair.

Well when they use expressions like 'step up to the plate' on Radio 4 the world's going to hell in a handbasket anyway.

All the handbaskets we keep goin' ta Hell in are what keep the fires of Hell burning. Historic district preservation -- important work.

conFESS Parker played Davy Crockett in the 1950s for Disney.

NEUTRON bombs kill all the people and leave the buildings. SMART bombs are supposed to pinpoint a specific target and seriously minimize "collateral damage".

Life is such fun. I won't tell if you won't.      Tw

Well my NAT, the supercarry(Rascal) antivampire (she can't go out at night) started on the second turn of the key on sunday. That was the first time she had been touched for a week. She just purred so I kept her at it for a couple of hours. This week I'm going to take her out to the country for dinner and a quiet stroll while no one is looking.

My first summer home from college I got a job driving a delivery van for a laundry outfit. Went from town to town in New England in this ancient Dodge unit with the engine under my right elbow. The entire van had been shaken by god and then set down again, there were no right angles left, the tires had some tread between the bald spots and the rear doors were held together by faith and some twine. I'm one of the only New Englanders who once found Islington, and my experience with inertia was that as I accelerated a wheeled canvas tub full of clean shirts castered slowly to the rear and then kept going, in the town center. I think it was later the same day that a tire blew but the engine was so shaky I couldn't tell at first.
