The madness started when I sat down at the dinner table, with a conversation about the difference between 'beget' and 'begat'. It continued through a metaphorical commentary of the 'tide of history' wiping clean the 'sands of time', and onwards into a rendition of the Days of our lives theme, with inevitable deviation into The Addams Family. When I left, it was in the middle of a reworking of "Love Is In The Air" to a more... martial motif.

Blood is in the air,
Everywhere I look around.
Blood is in the air,
On the walls and on the ground...

(I love the exam period.)
