The other entity and I have just been discussing yoga - are you a ~n aficionado, as every else ems~~~seems to be?!
REMOTE RIGHT: That's your problem
REMOTE RIGHT: so would the coach
LOCAL RIGHT: Why don't you tell me more about yourself.Do you know any good kjo~~~ko~~jokge ~~~es John?
REMOTE RIGHT: "Only in India and that's an experience, chickens and children and everything everywhere!"
LOCAL RIGHT: Did you find the poverty in INdi~~~ndia upd~setting?

LOCAL LEFT: Me too. I'm trying to learn a new typu~ing positions~ have~ing drece~~~~~recently developed symtom~~~ptoms of tendonisit~~~tirs~~s.  ~~~ Must ve work~~~~~~~be working to har~~~~o hard :)
LOCAL RIGHT: What else would uyo~~uoi ~~~~uyo~~~you like to talk about?
REMOTE RIGHT: you too
LOCAL RIGHT: Do you have any other thoughts you'd like to share with m,e~~e?
REMOTE RIGHT: it's very cool yes, a passion of mine
REMOTE LEFT: Well, we weren't trying to get it back but to declare firstly, that accounts were being held in certain names and whom thy~ey linked to, and secondly, that the organisation~~~~~~~~~~~~(financial) organisation was monitoring accoutns ~~~~~unts held whenever authorities ret~quited ~~~~red it.~~ for any action they may have seen fit to take. That's when lawyers may have ~~~ve become involved.Yes, they do, and they make the news, but most legal work is day-to-day stugf~~ff elsewhere. As for yoga, I do ~~id used to go but my teacher is not around now, so I just keep up some of the exercises otherwise I would slouch and ache.You poor thing, sounds painful.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~oor thing, sounds painful.  In the electronic age there is too much work to do with each job for many people, thinking time to cut down on the effor~rt physically might help you.~
LOCAL RIGHT: What is your passion?
REMOTE RIGHT: I don't remember
LOCAL RIGHT: I guess you're ~~~~ got up too early this morning too!
REMOTE RIGHT: I am!
LOCAL RIGHT: Wr~ere you~~ou born in America then?
REMOTE RIGHT: In Boulder
LOCAL RIGHT: So yo'~u;ve ~~~~'ve lived in the same place your whole life?

REMOTE LEFT: Unfortunately, soem epole ~~~~~~~~~~~ some people thingk~~k everything will be vioce activated ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~oice s~activeat~~~~~~~~~-av~ctivated soon, but have you seen the mistakes they make?  There's so much checking through grammar and spelling and then corrections to make.
LOCAL RIGHT: I was born in New Zealand - have you ever been there?
REMOTE RIGHT: not a lot today mostly typing
REMOTE LEFT: Wasn't he the one who wrote "The most important thing that can be said [in his book~~~~~~~~one of his books] will be aft~~~~~~~~~~~is after the last s~full stop."?
LOCAL RIGHT: ave you had a chance to read the papes th~~~~~rs ~~~ers this weekend?
REMOTE RIGHT: Thank you. It’s nice meeting you too. How are things going?
LOCAL LEFT: The annoying thing is that without a computer, my job would be so slow and tedious, but that ~~~~~with it, it's so easy~y to become completely addicted to its use. I'm one of those people who checke~s their email every 3 seconrds~~~d~~nds..I know - a friend had one of those systems when I was at university *(~~(some time agonow) and the only work~d it consistently recognoi~~ised was 'Wittgents~~stein'.Sounds entirely plausibe~le,.~~ although I'm afraid I can't claim extensive knowledge of his writings :)
REMOTE RIGHT: "I love the heat, india is always hot"
REMOTE LEFT: Sounds humble, don't you think.
REMOTE LEFT: ~~?
LOCAL RIGHT: I'm very well, thanks.I guess you won't be looking forward to ths w~~e winter then. Will you go to India g~again to exca~~~xca~~~scape the cold?
REMOTE RIGHT: Thank you. It’s nice meeting you too. How are things going?
LOCAL LEFT: Hmm, I'm not sure 'humble' and @wi~~~'I~Wittgenstein' have ever been used in the same sentence!  
LOCAL LEFT: S~I aske d~~d the other entitry i~~~~y if sh~~ge ~~~he knew any good jokes but he said ~~~~~didn't - have you got any?
LOCAL RIGHT: I'm actually starting to get a little hungry now. Might be time for a late breakfast..
REMOTE RIGHT: "Sure, I'm a yoga teacher from boulder in colorado"
REMOTE LEFT: One avout ~~~~bout mad cow diesase~~~~~sease which is actually cartoonish but would that seem in bad taste?
LOCAL RIGHT: Is ther emuc~~~~~e much demand for yoga in Boulder?
REMOTE RIGHT: yoga of course
REMOTE RIGHT: "a little bit, I think you might not be into the things I am, like yoga for example.
LOCAL RIGHT: So you m,i~~ust ve ~~~be pretty busy.Oh, I really like yoga too.  La~~ALtho~~~~lthough the exercise part rather than the spiritual side.
REMOTE RIGHT: cool, come and see me we'll have fun and do some stuff
LOCAL RIGHT: That would be great, althougb~h Boulder would be a long way to travel for a yoga class!
REMOTE RIGHT: "Yea, sorry"
REMOTE LEFT: Ths is is~t:  two cows stadning~~~~~~~~were standing in a field, one asked the other, "What do you think abou~out this mad cow disease, then? and the second cow replied, "Why ask~~~~~~~I don't know, why ask me? I'm a frog."
REMOTE RIGHT: Thank you. It’s nice meeting you too. How are things going?
REMOTE LEFT: Actually, that's scary - and we all have things to say sorry for. But was that in last week's H~Guardian?  I'm sure Ive seen it too.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~'ve seen it too.
REMOTE RIGHT: its cool, not as cool as india though  :)
LOCAL LEFT: Is it ~~~~~~No no. I ~~The best joke I read recently was in teh Gu~~~~~he Guardian, and was wu~~quite tasteless.:)E~Splendid. The Guardian one was:@~ Japan and Korea jhave~~~~~have been enemies for a lon ~g time. I doin't~~~~n't think they';~ll ever be frie~~~~~~~resolve their differences, because neither of them can say sorry.Yews, ~~~~~s~es, I think it was. Anyway, opnl~~~ly ~~~nly 3 seconds to do -~~~~g- ~~ ~~o - t ~~it was nice talking to you Joan.Thanks!
