In this scene, the socialist firebrand “Red Agnes” is resisting an attempt to bribe her not to stand for election to Parliament, with a rant drawing on Blake’s Jerusalem (the bit with the bow of burning gold and arrows of desire) for which she’s asked “Why bring toxophily into it?”.

“Because that’s the secret of success in politics: toxophily - and carry a big stick”

### Murphy’s Laws of Computing

1. When computing, whatever happens, behave as though you meant it to happen.
2. When you get to the point where you really understand your computer, it’s probably obsolete.
3. The first place to look for information is in the section of the manual where you least expect to find it.
4. When the going gets tough, upgrade.
5. For every action, there is an equal and opposite malfunction.
6. To err is human.. to blame your computer for your mistakes is even more human, it is downright natural.
7. He who laughs last probably made a back-up.
8. If at first you do not succeed, blame your computer.
9. A complex system that does not work is invariably found to have evolved from a simpler system that worked just fine.
10. The number one cause of computer problems is computer solutions.
11. A computer program will always do what you tell it to do, but rarely what you want to do.

“Pop,” he says, “You’re really old.”

The old man chuckles. “I certainly am, son.”

“How old are you Pop?”

“Why, I’m eighty-nine.”

“Wow.” the boy is impressed. “How did you get that old, Pop?”

“Well son, I’ll tell you.” The old man’s faces grows serious, and glances to each side conspiratorially. He leans in and fixes his great grandson with a steely look. “Here’s the secret. Every morning, I sprinkle a little gunpowder on my oatmeal. I don’t know how, but it’s kept me fit and healthy all my life.”

The boy takes his great grandfather’s advice, and indeed it works remarkably. The boy grew up and left behind 4 children, 9 grandchildren, 22 great-grandchildren, and a 16 foot hole in the crematorium wall.
