Errata
In my previous entry I said things which turn out, upon closer investigation of the facts, to be somewhat different from how I understood them. This may be related to me having just been run over by a car.
When someone asked me, “Shall I call an ambulance?”, the response that I gave was not, as I thought, “Please do”. A review of the video evidence reveals that my actual response was “K-ghurk”. It only turned out that the ambulance arrived because people saw no choice but to call one.
Also, the ambulance did not show up within seconds. Rather, I passed out from shock, and the sound of the ambulance arriving was what revived me. Time flies when you’re unconscious.
Apologies for the inconvenience.
