Dear Larry, I'm gravely concerned about the shrinkfelination of cat food pouches, which have all been reduced from 100g to 85g. Please raise this issue in Parliament by asking a Purrgent Question. We must purrtest! Give us back our 15g!
Yours caternally, Zorro

I used to have a Barbour with a strange long sideways pocket across the back that we called the rabbit pocket. No idea what it was really for, as I was an urban lefty.

Loved this image to illustrate machine learning. Muffin or dog? Feed the algorithm with a million of each and it will learn. From Prof Derek O’Keefe but I think derivative.
