Blog Block

The Pointless Digressions team is suffering what one neurologist describes as "an extremely rare form of group creative block. Their failure to put words on the screen," said Dr. Hartley Wetherspoon, "is akin to the Vancouver Canucks during the Stanley Cup playoffs failing to put pucks in the net."

This situation did lead one P.D. writer to recall a time when he was addressing a class at the BC Institute of Technology. A student raised his hand and asked, "What can you do about writer's cramp?"

"You mean writer's block," another student said.

"No," the first continued. "I mean writer's cramp. Like my hand goes all stiff when I've been writing a long time. So what do you do?"

As with so many other cosmic queries, the visiting speaker had no answer.
