I just listened to Hunter Davies on BBC Suffolk "The Beatles Uncovered with Hunter Davies" (via iPlayer) talking about how he managed to relate to the Beatles when they wanted their privacy. He said one of the things that helped was that "I didn't ask the naff questions, like 'What's your favorite Beatles song?'"
... hm, that's one mighty cloud. Fantastic to look at, but the rule of thumb (regulations actually) is to keep at least 20 NM away from Him. Mingling with Cloud too close (Gods forbid any type of flying into It/Him) brings about heavy ice of disapproval, mostly rime and clear :-( And that's on a good day (or night). Usually Cloud will just tear everything apart and spit it out with hail, freezing rain and thunder.

Hoomins don't get sympathy! They get DISAPPROVAL!
Now start doing your bun-chores! That might take your mind off it!
Stoopid hoomins - going out and drinking too much, and then wanting sympathy!
(Posted by what must be a very, very, very, very stoopid hoomin. Ow. Ow. Ow. And it's 5PM now. And did I say "Ow."? Ow.)
Pipe Down!!!!!!!!!!!! It's not yet 10AM here on the West Coast.
I wonder, when Cloud is in a VERY disapproving mood, does he become ThunderCloud?
Fleetie,

I disapprove of typos. Especially my own!

What a sight from a safe distance though :-)

And I love Cloud's caption. It is dripping with sarcasm, just perfect for a Cloud with a cast iron lining.
