Question:

Well, given that I've been in hospital today for my new treatment, there can be only one question. My new treatment seems to consist of me driving an hour and a half each way to then sit in a recliner chair for three and a half hours playing clash of clans whilst getting an IV and having nurses occasionally come in and check my blood pressure .... so not that different from a normal Sunday afternoon, minus the nurses. Anyway, will the new treatment work?

Results:

Yes was the clear winner with 100% of the votes from the following selection:

• Yes (100%)
• No (0%)

Analysis:

Wow, was that only a week ago .... I guess it's been a busy week. A resounding vote of confidence which I hope pans out.

Question:

So many questions that could be asked this week, but most of the chatter has been around our new hire who's called Anal Dave. I'm not suggesting there's anything wrong with that name in the slightest. If you had a name that was strange or meant something odd, would you change it?

Results:

Yes was the clear winner with 75% of the votes from the following selection:

• Yes (75%)
• No (25%)

Analysis:

Most folks deciding that they would change their name if it meant something odd, but a few stubborn people who believe their parents were right to name them that and they're going to stick with it. Good on you. If you don't mind being laughed at to keep your parents happy then well done.

Apparently there's an Indian woman called Purpel Dich so I got told this week. I have no way of validating this though.

Question:

The NASCAR season comes around again and I've created the NASCAR game that you can now register for. Will I be the only person playing the game this year?

Results:

Yes - you are a sad lonely muppet was the clear winner with 60% of the votes from the following selection:

• No - Mr O will play (0%)
• No - you will force William to play (40%)
• Yes - you are a sad lonely muppet (60%)

Analysis:

I am indeed a sad and lonely muppet, but I have just forced William to play. Not that he'll do anything other than the selections he's just made - that will be it for the year, but he is at least entered.

The drivers are loaded if you want to try.

Question:

So, I went to the McDonald's on Friday night with William. You drive to the first bit where you get into a lane to speak into the intercom and place your order, then drive to window 1 to pay, then window 2 to get your food. All makes perfect sense. Why is there a sticker on the window of the McDonald's drive through pay window advertising that braille menus are available inside?

Results:

c)An Isosceles Triangle, g)None of the above and h)Heaven's above tied with 33% of the votes each from the following:

• a) 65 (0%)
• b) The battle of Hastings (0%)
• c)An Isosceles Triangle (33%)
• d)a and c (0%)
• e)A&E (0%)
• f)All of the above (0%)
• g)None of the above (33%)
• h)Heaven's above (33%)

Analysis:

I have absolutely no idea why this would be. My guess is that there's probably some state or federal regulation requiring companies to display things like that in prominent places. Or that everywhere you have a menu, you have to display the option for braille. Anyway, in case you were wondering, you can't get the braille menu whilst driving, you have to park up and go inside.

Question:

The wonders of my life find me back ill again. I'm hopeful this is something else that's causing me to poop through the eye of a needle, but in all likelihood it's back to the same old same old. Anyway I have to get to San Jose this week for some important work type stuff. I've punted on Monday and the question is - will I get to San Jose this week?

Results:

Yes was the clear winner with 100% of the votes from the following selection:

• Yes (100%)
• No (0%)

Analysis:

Question:

Time to do the battle of the brands (been a big talking point this week). Coke or Pepsi?

Results:

Coke was the clear winner with 100% of the votes from the following selection:

• Coke (100%)
• Pepsi (0%)

Analysis:

Not looking good for Pepsi ... Seems the EBR masses are aligned with Coke.

Question:

As I ponder the philosophical aspects of life, I found myself wondering one specific question. Did Adam and Eve have belly buttons?

Results:

No they didn't was the clear winner with 100% of the votes from the following selection:

• Yes they did (0%)
• No they didn't (100%)
• Adam only (0%)
• Eve only (0%)

Analysis:

Ah, consensus that Adam and Eve didn't have belly buttons. Stands to reason that they wouldn't, but that begs an interesting though. Well, maybe not that interesting. If god made man in his own image, then only Adam was in his own image and we're all poor copies. So I guess god doesn't have a belly button either.

Question:

Another week in Vegas ahead of me. Wasn't I just there? Should I splash out and gamble this time?

Results:

No was the clear winner with 75% of the votes from the following selection:

• Yes (25%)
• No (75%)

Analysis:

I didn't because I'm boring.

Question:

This week's vote question takes me back a bit. Been doing a lot of reminiscing all the way back to when .... to, well two weeks ago. So Owen and I did a bit of shopping whilst in Vegas. My suitcase broke (Owen claims he didn't do it, but he was the only person near it and the only person who touched it) so I had to buy a new one. Whilst there, I noticed that there was a Ralph Lauren outlet so decided to get a couple of T-shirts. Owen is convinced that the staff there thought we were a couple on the basis that two blokes don't go shopping together. I think it's wishful thinking on Owen's part. Anyway, if Owen and I were homosexual, who would be the pitcher and who would be the catcher?

Results:

Owen is the wide receiver, Owen is the Tight End and Owen has Gone Long tied with 33% of the votes each from the following:

• Owen is the pitcher (0%)
• Owen is the catcher (0%)
• Owen is the wide receiver (33%)
• Owen is the Tight End (33%)
• Owen has Gone Long (33%)
• Owen is Sizing up the Hole (0%)
• Owen is trying to push his balls up (0%)

Analysis:

Yes, Mr O is quite correct - it was a bit odd when they asked if he wanted to go into the changing room with me whilst I tried a T shirt on. I'm still not 100% convinced they thought we were a couple as opposed to thinking that I was incapable of putting a T shirt on. I think they thought Owen was my helper as opposed to my lover ... or maybe both. I guess next time I'll go into the changing rooms and then shout for him to come on ... or maybe pick up some underpants and ask if he can help me try them on. The possibilities are endless.

Question:

It appears to be allergy season once more as I find myself staring at my computer screen through tears as my eyes continue to stream constantly. I don't think I have the right medicine for it as I have the non drowsy stuff which is obviously a lot weaker than the stuff that puts you to sleep. Has anyone got the non-drowsy allergy medicine to work?

Results:

No was the clear winner with 75% of the votes from the following selection:

• Yes (25%)
• No (75%)

Analysis:

Interestingly enough, the over the counter, non drowsy tablets seem to have worked. At least my symptoms are much better - not entirely gone, but completely manageable.
