A Tale Of Two Boxen


H has a new computer. His name is Linnaeus.

We hoped that Linnaeus and my Mac newmarket would play nicely together, despite their size difference. Early indications were promising, as a game of “piggyback” developed.

But then Linnaeus got hungry, and, well…

I guess we can’t really blame him. After all, Malus domestica can be pretty tasty.

  2. In H’s defense, I came up with this one on my own.

  3. When asked why he did it Linneaus responded: “But it was a ‘Delicious’ apple.”

    (The investigating officer responds) “I guess if it had been a Pink Lady’ you would have asked her out?”

  4. Heh heh heh, Brian: I bought two boxen of donut.
    Teacher: No no no, Erwin, what’s the plural for goose?
    Erwin: Geese, I saw a flock of geese. Teacher: Brian? Brian: crying Wha-a-a-a-t? Teacher: What’s the plural for moose?

    Did you intend the title of the post to be a Brian Regan reference? If so…awesome! I absolutely loved that skit he did.

    And if not. Uh, sorry, don’t mind me… Look over there! A flock moosen (and there was a meece)! me runs away

  5. Uh… nope, I was just using the common plural for computers. ;-) Sounds like Brian Regan might be worth a listen, though… but no tracks on iTunes Music Store. darn.

    You coming this way Saturday night?

  6. Hadn’t planned on it. I got too much to do this weekend, alas.

  7. I am disturbed by how much this amuses me.

    It was nice seeing you both again yesterday.
