never help the afflicted
it only leads to bad things happening.

I honestly thought i was doing a good deed when i rang the number in the old duffers bus pass. I was on my ay up to halfords to get a puncture sorted on my 2 wheeled wonder machine (a push bike to most humans) and i found a bus pass. with an old duffers picture on it. not that unusual you might say, and you'd be right.

instead of mooching across the road from halfords and handing it in at the cop shop, i decided to have a quick peak at the contents. Turns out the bloke had alzheimers (spelling?) so i thought i would ing te number of the helper on the card inside

(for those who dont know if you get alzheimers you get a little card which tells people this so if you are alone and dribbly you can show it to them and the help you out. Well, if you did know coz you have got one you may have forgotten already.

((that reminds me of a little skit i saw once. an alzheimers protest rally - "what do we want???? we don't know! when do we want it??? what?!!???!!?"))

anyway, i phone the number and have a chat with the nice lady at the other end and agree to drop the bus pass off, as my bike has been fixed and its only a 10min ride away.

all goes well, i find the house and am rewarded £5 for my efforts. On the way back, my phone falls out of my pocket and is run over, costing me a £25 excess on the insurance.

Karma eh? i think the chemical brothers had it right in "the golden path"

"but I did not believe in a
Heaven and hell world of opposite’s kind of reality
and I gained control of myself
and I decided to press on"

and so here we are - no such thing as karma, just a series of random events that we have to deal with

reminds me of a t-shirt
that says: I may have Alzheimer's, but at least I don't have Alzheimer's
