Ms. Alice Zimmer – much to the surprise of everyone (including herself) – appears to have passed away. The state of affairs is unexpectedly short-lived, which proves to be of no comfort whatsoever to the sacrificial offering.
Age is strictly a case of mind over matter. If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter.
Ms Zimmer has offered us some advice regarding negotiated congress which, although she is amply qualified, we have had to decline since her qualifications expired some time ago. (Indeed, due to the Trade Descriptions Act she now has to offer the promise of “a horrible time”.)
