About Sporadic Humour
- Sporadic started as a regular Monday morning dose of humour for work colleagues back in the mid 90's - something to assist the caffeine-hit of that first cup of coffee in lifting the dark cloud that the day after the weekend before tends to induce. Coming up with a regular weekly good quality laugh was tedious and it soon changed to "Sporadic Humour", and moved onto an email distribution list. When I started the "hitting the wire" blog, I realised a blog, with an email feed option would be a better bet. This is it.
