Let's be honest, Old Grumpy was running out of ideas.

 And when Old Grumpy got short of ideas, Potter looked jealously at Terry's Pipes.

Terry's Pipes was a blog that never seemed short of ideas - very good ideas. Potter pretended to mock it but really, he was a disciple. Terry's blog even had a cute little footnote that he added thus:

Terry's Pipes*


* the answer is blowin' in the wind


Potter wished he could think up a catch phrase like that. He tried a few times:

Old Grumpy*


* same shit different day


Old Grumpy*


* at least you'll sleep better

Somehow, he just couldn't put a good slogan together. The One in a Skirt said, "Buddy Boy, you certainly are turning into a grumpy old bastard."

Potter just said, "Shoosh!"

He might have been writing a letter, or going to the toilet, or out for a walk.

To me Potter sounds a lot like that The Curmudgeon guy. Yeah, I know it's just a coincidence.

"The answer my friend is blowing off in the wind"

Yep, that's a good slogan for your blog alright since 'pissing into the wind' is already taken.

Sorry you're still out of the office. Hope you have your hands on a good Cleanskin.
