I can see the future

I'm sure that in my lifetime I shall see machines like this doing all
sorts of things; like shopping, discussing ponies and chucking Ducatis
into central reservations

Hmm. I was about to post that she walks nearly as naturally as I do.
But I won't now.

 

Ogden will be ordering one up soon, as long as they supply the eels as

I see a bright new future, where chickens can cross the road with no
fear of having their motives questioned

 

Maybe, but they'll never have the dexterity to remove the protective
film from a visor insert.

Having said that, I'd still give it one.

Christ yes. As I posted some time ago, the perceptions I got during
the various stages of my recovery have been illuminating:

Wheelchair: Mong
Two crutches: An otherwise healthy chap recovering from an injury

She'd have to supply her own funnel.

 

Can't be more than a minor firmware tweak to make it stop talking when
you smack it in the face.

 

When I have to use a walking stick (ie when the arthritis was bad) I
was amazed - people would open doors for me, give me seats on crowded
trains et. al.

Maybe I just look more trustworthy. Or more pathetic - take your pick!

I haven't found this to be the case with me. Mine was a skydiving mishap.
