Elsewhere
Nothing equates to the pain of wanting to be elsewhere. This futile yet fundamental human endeavor devours us on a daily basis only to be usurped on the odd occasion by shopping and mowing the lawn. Like shopping and lawn mowing transportation by thought processes should be avoided at all times. We have seen the result of such endeavors in various fictional works such as Star Trek and Dr Who and we both know how that turned out. My suggestion is to choose more conventional means; even an aircraft if you keep your fingers crossed during the flight. Although many experiments have been carried out in the hope that one day we will be able to move across large expanses of water just at the mere thought of it, I suggest you try a boat otherwise the result of all that heavy brain work will simply result in sitting on a cold concrete wall for a very long time.

Totally terrific here, Tom, love it! Odd you should mention all this, Mrs. Toad and I have really wanted to pop by to see you and Christine, perhaps have a lovely dinner and evening of intellectual chit-chat, but try as I may my mind-meld transportation unit has appeared to have sprung a leak of sorts. Perhaps it's time to try a boat...
ReplyDeleteThis is an excellent shot, which certainly conveys that "elsewhere" feeling!
