Blogging in a fairly parallel universe.

 Richard (of RVC): Hi and welcome to Richard's Violin Case!* We're going to have a little chat today about things associated with blogging. I'm very happy to introduce you to two very enthusiastic bloggers...

Robert the rugby watching liberal 


and Peter, friend of God and assembler of exercise machines.


[fairly enthusiastic applause]

Robert: Hey thanks. I hope this doesn't make me late for the rugby.

Peter: I love you Robert.

Richard (of RVC): So Peter, I hear you've been writing about your new exercycle. Was it hard to assemble?

Peter: Not after I prayed to The Holy Spirit for help. If only everyone knew the loving power of The Holy Spirit.

Robert: Sheesh! I've heard him referred to as the holy bloody parrot.

Peter: I love you Robert.

Richard (of RVC): So Peter, how does this thing about three people in one god work?

Peter: Firstly, I like to be abstentious when I answer this question. It's all about proof - a silly question to ask really. I mean, you all who buy into a theory like evolution like to see yourselves as the bellwether.

Robert: The what?

Peter: You need to work on your big words Robert, if you are ever to understand The Blessed Trinity. The bellwether is the leading sheep in a flock that wears a bell around its neck. Brent Worn mentioned it in a very good discussion about how Jesus ascended up to Heaven.

Robert: Can we get back to the point? If you have three people in one entity, the blessed trinity is probably a car with two people in the front and one in the back. Who gets to ride in the back seat?

Peter: That's an illogical argument because circumlocution makes for a very good cwtch for any logic involved. I love you Robert.

Robert: A cwtch? What, in fuck's name, is a cwtch?

Peter: It comes from the Welsh word for “hiding place”; it's the longest word in English to be entirely composed of consonants. 

Richard (of RVC): I'll have to look that up later. So Peter, when you're not blogging about assembling exercise machines and The Holy Spirit helping you with the assembly, you write a lot of sermons on your belief in the Catholic faith.

Peter: Yes. I see it as  a desideratum, the opposite of being deleterious.

Robert: Why didn't you say it's not harmful, which certainly isn't bloody true! Let's talk about the rugby.

Peter: Yes. Thirty grown men throwing a ball around. Why can't they spend that time praying? Equanimity. I love you Robert.

Richard (of RVC): Well, I must be off. There is violin practice to do. It's been interesting talking to you both. I wonder if, somewhere in some fairly parallel universe, things are a little twisted. Maybe I play the trombone?

Peter: I love you Richard.

Richard (of RVC): Shut up Peter.

Well, you tried to do your best. That's the most important thing.

I was just going to comment on that new video post but it disappeared.
Never mind eh.

Richard (of RBB) ha detto...

Unfortunately, it wasn't up to our very high standard.

THE CURMUDGEON ha detto...

THAT BAD EH?

Richard (of RBB) ha detto...

I popped around to see a friend today and the whole family was playing cards. They asked me to join in. I noticed that the cards were smaller than regular playing cards. No big deal.

THE CURMUDGEON ha detto...

Well the humour hasn't improved.
Were the spades trowels then?
