Koan of the day

You may or may not know Raz, you may even be Raz, but most probably you're not. Raz is someone i went to university with, a very smart person, so smart he decided to drink, smoke pot and not bother with exams, thats how smart he was, he was *that* smart, he knew a puny degree was below his talents.

Ambling home as we were on a pleasant journey back from london yesterday our conversation as ever turned to the relative merits of the bands playing on the radio, this is a time i always value as we trade various facts, tips and the occasional shout of "utter shite", two years ago on a drive down to cornwall Raz had informed me about an up and coming set of upstarts called the scissor sisters.

Well just as a fat lass is inevitably drawn towards cheesecake, radio 1 was inevitably drawn to play the new scissor sisters track, naturally i was curious as to how raz felt about this new single.

"I'm having my doubts" he said
"Really ? how come? this sounds like all their other stuff"
"Well yes it does, but how can i say this? I've begun to suspect that the band may be gay"

Silence

"Gay? GAY? well yes of course they are! how could you not notice!" at this point it was time for me to come out with a killer fact "Well okay they're all gay except the drummer"

"Oh yes i knew the drummer couldn't be gay"
"you knew? how could you know that given what you've said?"
"Drummers can't be gay can they?"
"Drummers can't be gay how do you know that?"
"they'd never be able to hit the drums hard enough"

I really couldn't fault the logic
