Witticisms from Durrell, who has been in our office today:

• Him: "I need to do laundry..."
• Me: "Why, because you're running out of underwear..."
• Him: "Well... some things are on a second pass... right now.."
• Me: "Oh, so you want to catch that before a third pass...."
• Him: "Yes. Exactly."
• *short time later*
• Him: "I'm going to get this done and then, I'm going to feel like I actually did something today... and then, I'm going to have a drink... I haven't had a drink in... well, I had a drink last night.. but, I mean, a real drink...
• Me: (after choking from laughter) "So, you're saying you had a beer..."
• Him: "Well, no - it was a wine... but only half a bottle..."
• Welcome to the campaign life... ;o)
