From Bulimic to Bohemian

Conversations can hop along so fast, it's hard to keep track of what started them and where they will lead.

Take this conversation over lunch yesterday. A few collegues and I had stepped out for lunch and as usual, there was this inane conversation which has some of us holding our respective heads and the rest of us rolling on the floor laughing.

This conversation was shifting tracks so fast, it was difficult to say when the topic of Bulimia (the binge eating disorder) came in. Even while we were marvelling at the topic cropping up during lunch, one of us rhymed it with Bohemia and the topic ran off into a completely different direction.

We finally ended up with a discussion on - you won't believe this - Copyright and Copyright Violation laws. Wonky, huh?

The only reason we didn't have our thought running wilder was the office were we all had to get back and work. Had it been a beer session on a Friday evening, only God knows where it would have gone.
