Has anyone seen my pencil? It's a red one, an HB I think, and I'd just put it through the sharpener, so it was nice and sharp, and it was almost new too, no teeth marks or anything. And it was much longer than those Pizza Hut (tm) ones that look like they've been sawn in thirds, cos I'd only bought it a couple of weeks back, and the lead snapped almost straight away when my lecturer said that Bladerunner was a slack video.

So anyway, if you've seen it (it was sitting right next to my terminal, and I think it got sucked into a usenet void when I was reading talk.bizarre, you know, when news goes flaky on you - well that was the last time I saw it) could you just post it to me at the address on my signature.

Oh, If you put your hand in your pocket one day, and come up with a $10 or a $20 that you never knew you had - that's probably mine too, because my wallet was alongside the pencil, and when I opened it this morning, it was empty. So post those notes through too if you can.

Thanks again
