Same as it ever was...

With apologies for the hiatus: I trust you coped. I am now officially a doctor:

Richard's graduation4

I now have a cheap little digital camera, so expect more photos.

I know my place though: you (that's Tom and Adam, mostly, I guess) expect me to bring childish ephemera to your attention. To whit, Kermit sings 'Once in a Lifetime'.

Wow -- congratulations! I hope some day to wear a similar silly hat. Thanks for finding Kermit -- I remember seeing this on TV years ago, taping it, and then lending the tape to someone and never getting it back.

Wow, congratulations! I've tried to find that video everywhere, but without luck.

Oh yeah, well done on the doctorate too.

But seriously, I remember that clip being spoken of in somewhat legendary tones in darkened, smoky, whisky-tinged rooms atop E staircase long, long ago. And now I get to see it in an air-conditioned, strip-lit, open-plan office, which feels rather sacriligeous.

The video has also pleased my boss, who has a Muppets screensaver and likes Talking Heads too.
