Binary Cookery

Why is it?

Why?

Why do I have a binary cooker?

It has four gas outlets. One small, two medium and one large.

Each of these outlets has six settings – from off to full.

This is fine.

This is not, however, reality.

The reality is that my cooker is a binary cooker. It has two temperatures.

It has off.

It has FIRES OF HELL.

I’m trying to build a curry and it’s kinda tough to do with all the demons of Gehenna attempting to cremate everything that comes within a mile of it.

Levels 7 and 8 Eliteified. And there’s a benevolent dream-alien called Klaatu. I wonder if he has mates called Barata and Nikto. Anyway, managed to escape from a sneak trap and also help a new squaddie called Carlos to escape from a green-bogie camp.

BBC NEWS | England | Dawn swoop by 500 police officers

Five men arrested. By 500 policemen. That’s 100 policemen each. They must have really expected a struggle.

Imagine my surprise at finding that the five men were neither Jedi who had fallen to the dark side, nor mutants with terrifying supernatural powers but were, in fact, some young lads who happen to live on a traveller camp. Who were accused of robbing post offices. Slightly over the top response, do you think?

If they were so concerned about these men, perhaps it would have been best to nuke the site from orbit. After all, it’s the only way to be sure(tm).
