The end of the blog

This will be the last entry on this blog - my calculator has so much to say and is only being held back by my ramblings, so I've set up a twitter account exclusively for his daily numerical wisdom:

This solves a couple of problems:
1. My calculator often has more than one mystery number to show me in the morning as I kick its brain into wakefulness, and I seriously can't be arsed to take photos of them all.
2. My attention span is as limited as the display on my calculator's 8 digit screen, so this way I don't have to bother thinking about new stuff to write every day.

So there you have it. Perhaps in hundreds of years time when computers have taken over the world and enslaved mankind, they will look to the daily musings of my mad calculator as a kind of fossilised record of our times - the binary equivalent of Pepys diary perhaps...

Over and out.
