Random act of mischief

On a past Saturday morn, not but seven days and a fortnight ago I was exiting my residence, and happened to notice something odd about the main passage of entry to my humble place of abode. However drafty, or inefficient it may be is beside the point, and one must agree that to have one's own place described about in the form of written word, is likened unto that which can be almost purely distilled down to a form of something akin to chin music. I began to examine the scene, and upon closer inspection, had no other choice but to conceed that an egg (which is infused with a fair amount of Choline) had been most definitely smacked betwixt the lower four window panes in my front door.

I later found out through a rather informed young neighbour boy, that in fact, the Choline enriched projectile element was meant for the adjacent door to mine, not three feet from its designated place of rest [though violent destruction of the enCholinated item is evident, it is still accurate to refer to its final destination as a place of 'rest'; this is known as 'Poetic Understatement' to those who are fluent in the use of literary words (Link for C. 'Shroud' Wesley and Mrs.(Dr.) Olson).
    Impromptu definition...
    Poetic Understatement-An illustrative word picture for purposes of exaggerative emphasis; used in cases of irony, often comic or satirical in nature, a mild, or ultra-refined synoptical description of a catastophic event(s)].


I leave it up to incorrect trajectoral analysis... widely overlooked by the illwitted; also one of the most unchecked, and uncorrected mistakes of those among the practice of common mischievity. No hard feelings tho' because two good things happened as a result of this incident. I got to kill the ants that were congregating on what can only be described somewhat descreetly as 'egg-mess', with some bits of Choline ...and I get to see if this all purpose cleaner that I think I paid $40 a quart for, actually does what it claims.

An arcticle that made me laugh when I read the title.
