incandescensVarious bugs going round at work. The person sitting directly opposite me has something respiratory, the person to my left is hitting the Lemsips, and personally I feel like a limp rag. Roll on the weekend.

On the Vanity of Earthly Greatness
The tusks which clashed in mighty brawls
Of mastodons, are billiard balls.
The sword of Charlemagne the Just
Is Ferric Oxide, known as rust.
The grizzly bear, whose potent hug,
Was feared by all, is now a rug.
Great Caesar's bust is on the shelf,
And I don't feel so well myself.
