Spillage in the Village

I don't get why people are so crazy about living by a lake. In the village of Zurich an apartment within walking distance of the shallow duckpond dubbed Lake Zurich will cost you your life savings and a kidney - per month. Also, the landlord gets to do your wife.

Well, I was working by a lake today and I learned several things:
1) Don't spill your tea with milk on your desk.
2) If you rinse your keyboard several keys will produce characters significantly different from the ones they were originally assigned.

Egging On, Offing Eggs

There has been a throbbing pain in my skull for the better part of the day. Someone must have stood on my head while I was asleep. Apparently yesterday's bottle of red made me let my guard down. Luckily, the fridge boasts an assortment of natural pain killers, courtesy of Big Chicken. The egg in question was hatched by a happy albeit somewhat plain hen in a quality Swiss poultry reactor and could have become Protein Czar had I not consumed it. The guilt! The horrible guilt!
