Well, it got me thinking, I don't know if it will do the same for you unwashed, unenlightened lot. (hhmmm... I suspect lesson one in "How To Increase Your Blog Readership" is probably don't insult your readers... but hey ho).
Anyway. I was sitting at home last night thinking about this and that as you do, when my mind wandered onto the subject of uniqueness. Now bear with me on this. Imagine we start off at the highest level and we are going to 'drill down' into more and more detail to try and work out how unique we are. I started off by thinking about all the 38 year old males in the world.
Millions, right? So we drill down deeper. How many 38 year old males have red hair? (No jokes please). Remember, this is out of the whole planet's population. Let's go deeper - how many 38 year old males with red hair are separated? How many are separated and have a son? How many are separated with a son and work in I.T?
You get where I'm going with this? I was trying to work out to which level of detail I would have to go to to get to the point where I was completely unique? Oh yes I know everyone is unique in their own way, we're all special and wonderful and no one is like us and we are the bestest in the world blah blah blah but would I be surprised if I could find out that there were 6534 people who were 38, male, with red hair, separated, with a son, working in I.T?
So what would make us even more unique?
As I said, it got me thinking before it gave me a combination of a headache and vertigo... but I don't know what YOU lot think. So why not tell me?

I think you think too much
Pardon me for having a brain that is more evolved than a slightly moldy spud....
I think if you chopped your left ear off and your right leg at the knee you might find that makes you a lot more unique :-)
Glad to be of assistance!
PS and a tattoo of Paddington Bear on your middle toe would maybe narrow it down further?
I think you should also start wearing womens clothes, that and all the above has GOT to narrow it down!
You want me to wear women's clothes... is this something we need to talk about???
How many males are 38 years old with red hair, are separated, with a son, working in I.T., play golf, visited Volo, Illinois and have a funny accent?
When will the world learn, it's everyone ELSE who has a funny accent, not me.
There could be many people who share those particular things in common.
However, I feel that a person's soul makes them unique, no two souls are the same, no matter what the similarities in thier life my be.
I believe every single person to be utterly unique.
nearly a month now Simon, any updates soon?
