Beat this:

A pretty girl challenged me to a game of eyeball.
She beat me at chess last December and I never heard the end of it.

I hate to lose.

Man Bites Dog

New York Sun editor John B. Bogart said: "When a dog bites a man, that is not news, because it happens so often. But if a man bites a dog, that is news."


- which partly explains my silence over the last week.


Today I read an article titled 'Man Stabs Dog'. I read the article only a few hours ago and cannot remember the who, where, how or why, and that made me think, a man really has to bite a dog for it to be news.

My only story at the moment is my island, the one I am building.
Tonight I started with my submarine - every island needs one.

The story of my night is: 'I wonder whether the submarine is a bit too yellow?'
That's not a story is it?

I did mess some paint on my hands, so perhaps I could say:
"Submarine Paints Man - Yellow!"
