This from an obituary of the academic Philip Thody in French Studies (October 1999):
Modern technology was not something he took to easily either [...] After one Visiting Professorship he received a formal certificate testifying to his ability to cause a computer breakdown of a type and seriousness previously known in Western Australia.
Ahem. Am willing to bet the local university helpdesk didn't find his predicament quite so charmingly disingenuous.
Have had a hell day with Becca so am cowering in here typing nonsense while Jack (who got home early) tries to convince her to eat; shrieks of 'Nooooooo haaaam thank youuuuuuu!' occasionally pierce the study door.
