Of course the whole point about the drain-pipe metaphor is that one does <em>not</em> attract a lot of attention in that way; but I do suppose that any accidental drowning resulting from such an existentially questionable practice would probably make the papers, if only the local ones. I'll stick to blogging. It looks as if the machinery is working properly, Jeanie; your comment is here, and as a singleton.

I hope this doesn't end up in your inbox a hundred times. I wanted to keep it light and tell you that I have NEVER heard of someone shouting up a drain pipe. Isn't this rather a risky endeavor? Jeanie Malcolm,
