Dear Stephen Fry:
You are a very funny and talented man, and I am not at all surprised that you are also an enormous geek. I am amazed, however, by the sheer insane length of your first blog post, and the fact that it is all about electronic gadgetry. I don't know why I expected you to still write everything down on parchment with a fountain pen and use only public telephones, but for some reason I did.
Really, the sheer complexity of people never fails to surprise me.
Which has inspired me to create a meme of sorts:
1. Tell me one thing about yourself that you think I might be really surprised to hear, and/or
2. Tell me one thing about myself that really surprised you when you found out.
And now I must go and unravel part of Chapter Four which isn't working, so that I can feel happy about carrying on with Chapter Five.
