I think this post will have a point, or maybe even two… eventually…

Unrelated thinking says I’ve seen a few hedgehogs tonight – neat – they are the cutest of critters. One was right on the white line as I was coming down the street to the house, driving in the dark, tonight. It was funny, if not a little tragic – he/she was obviously a little confused by the headlights and really couldn’t make up ones mind whether to go forward or backward… it all looked very ‘spikey ball circular’. The tragedy, of course, is that this is likely to end in the equation series:

wandering hedgehog + fast moving bright lights = confused hedgehog;

therefore:

confused hedgehog + random hedgehog movements + fast moving vehicle = probability situation;

therefore:

Wounded Hedgehog

probability situation + slow driver reaction + roughly: ‘oh shit! a hedgehog!’ = *squished* hedgehog…

QED – Quite Easily Done – as my best mate would put it.

Happy to say, said hedgehog was safe and sound last time I saw him/her doing indecisive circles around itself on the centre line down the road…

I popped out just a few minutes ago for a cigarette and another hedgehog (or the same one with ‘road-runner genes’?) was squiggling about on the drive here and scurried under the car, with gravel scrunching sounds that might wake the dead, for darkness cover…

Hedgehog night obviously…

There was a point to that wasn’t there?
(one ‘down’, one ‘to go’)…

Apparently a lot of corporations are jumping on the ‘social networking’ band-wagon. What is ‘social-networking’ exactly by the way? Something people who read and (possibly really sadly might have) believed crap like ‘How to win friends and influence people’ get into on the Internet?..

Anyway, apparently the millions spent on developing corporate social-networking doesn’t always work…

ReadWriteWeb reports

from which comes this great quote:

The matter could probably warrant more thoughtful discussion, but instead we’ll leave you with this image, from Purina’s Breeze for Cats. It’s a “community” focused on cat litter. Ask yourself, is there hope for humanity?

I concur…

Any hope for humanity?
