Sarcasm (i hope)

Commenting on the US refusal to allow UN control of the Internets "root servers":

Yeah! The internet is ours. Al Gore invented it right here in Jesusland, the center of the universe. You foreign heathens can build your own damn internets if you don't like it.

Moving from Islington* to Rickmansworth**..

*By a totally staggering coincidence that is also the telephone number of an Islington flat where Arthur once went to a very good party and met a very nice girl whom he totally failed to get off with - she went off with a gatecrasher.

**And then, one Thursday, nearly two thousand years after one man had been nailed to a tree for saying how great it would be to be nice to people for a change, one girl sitting on her own in a small cafe in Rickmansworth suddenly realized what it was that had been going wrong all this time, and she finally knew how the world could be made a good and happy place. This time it was right, it would work, and no one would have to get nailed to anything.
