"Why am I not asleep?" I asked the universe at 2.45 this morning. "Please let me be asleep."
"Did you know," replied the universe, "That 'asleep' is an anagram of 'please'?"
"So it is," I said, as I checked to be sure. "How jolly."
And I started composing this post in my head.
"To answer the question that started this conversation,"said the universe,"Your mother is about to call you to help her use the commode so what would have been the point? Hearken! There she is now..."
"Anthoneee..."
