PHILOSOPHER SEEKS BAND
In a bid to do justice to the musical diversity of the forthcoming album, I am currently trying to gather a consortium of like-minded mis-fits to form The Bedroom Philosopher and the Pooglet Three. The main position vacant is drummer. Must be able to handle all forms of somewhat out …

WEBMASTERS NOTE!
We apologise for the unexpected delay in the processing and shipment of this edition of ‘LapTopping.’ This was due to a clerical error, and while all effort was made to maintain the prescribed deadline, there was unavoidable disruption to services which led to temporary system congestion. This in turn caused a customer service technician to waylay some integers key to the literary homogenisation of the aforementioned e-pamphlet. Some Milo was spilt and there was a lot of swearing. Appropriate volunteers have been reprimanded and …

“The other day I accidentally said ‘Simon and Garfield.’ What a pair. Imagine Paul Simon singing ‘The Boxer’ while the plump Jim Davis creation sleeps by his feet. The best artistic offshoot I can summon at 8:06pm on a Saturday evening is the idea of Bill Murray, the voice of the big screen feline having a depressive go at ‘Feeling Groovy’ al la his karaoke sojourn in Lost In Translations.”

“It’s Worry Fest 2006 – a low-key, one person affair. Your self-esteem has to be at a certain level to go on the rides, and the desk chair ghost train is a nail-biting disappointment. The wallet finding stage show was tragically hilarious and I had my photo taken with my printer. In my showbag I got a cigarette, a pen that doesn’t work, and some ‘novelty bills.’ I swear the food …

“May the toasty glow of your disco-pixel joy-visor melt the mint-flint shards of winter from your skin. For your optimistic roving boots shall skip and flex with perplexing strength. May your plans actualise like Voltron, forming a five-lion force field of self-unity that slays the poorly animated swamp-octopus of your worries. Everything’s going to be fine, or thereabouts, roughly, we suppose, with a vengeance. Awomen.”

EDITOR’S NOTE:
This issue of LapTopping was deemed so crucial to your personal development it was sent twice. We sincerely apologise for the congestion. It came to our attention that it contained a lot of potentially rude words, and was being confiscated by robonuns. This explains the frenetic use of friendly asterixis.
