I was watching a difficult to fully describe bit of film making loosely based on the travels of Daniel Defoe through Britain called Robinson in Space yesterday. Mostly I was doing this to avoid my life because sometimes you need a day of recovery like after you’ve bicycled through the dester for 200 km with a single bottle of water and a poisonous lizard as a companion.

Anyway, I bring up the movie because it had this great quote in it,

Much of life for many people, even in the heart of the first world, consists of waiting in a bus shelter with your shopping for a bus that never comes.

Truer words were spoken once. They caused a riot and the death of pigeon. I think it was in 1953.
