Dear guy on the Metro,

If the Metro is full, please remember it's only polite to take your overly-large backpack off and put it between your feet. Especially if you're six foot something and said backpack is on level with my head.

No love,

the lass who swore at you when you smacked her in the face and didn't even apologise.

I have a bizarre urge for marmite sandwiches.

If genetic engineering meant we could produce blue oranges, would they still be oranges? Or would they be blues?

Well, I don't know if a blue orange would be a "blue" or if it'd still be an orange, though since the colour was named for the fruit (according to the online etymological dictionary), rather than the other way around, I suspect it'd still be an orange. I'm almost certain it's possible, and probably even fairly easy, to genetically engineer a blue orange, though - all you need to do is pick a nontoxic blue pigment and splice in the requisite gene to express an enzyme to make it from existing metabolites, and voila - weirdly coloured fruit.

But I want blues *pout*

Mmmmmm - marmite *g*

I have a strange relationship with marmite. Sometimes I like it, other times I think it's akin to something that's been scraped off a shoe ;)

Marmite or Vegemite -- I like both of them, although Vegemite has the edge on account of it being less runny. People think I'm weird. Unfortunately, I can't eat either much due to heartburn. :p :)

I can't remember if I've ever tasted vegemite. I mean, I probably have, but for the life of me, I just don't recall it *g*

Oh, a blue orange would probably be given some fruffy name like a sky orange. You know, kinda like the less than fruffy blood orange.

*g* We could get a red, blue and yellow orange and call it the Superman...
