So said Richard in a recent comment on one of my posts.
"Is Robert helping you to write these thoughts? Frankly I'm having trouble making sense of both yours and his blogs these days."
It made me wonder if he really thinks that Robert and I could collaborate in post writing. I decided to research some famous collaborations to see if I could gain any clues.
The Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact known as the Treaty of Non-aggression between Germany and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics signed August 23, 1939.
Well we know how that turned out:
Ebony & IvoryPaul McCartney & Stevie Wonder
Two of the world's greatest musicians at the time combined forces to record a song about racial harmony - what could possibly go wrong? Absolutely nothing. At first. When Ebony and Ivory was released in 1982 it made No.1 in both the UK and US.
In 2007 it was voted the worst musical collaboration in history. 
Not looking too good so far ....... maybe something a bit religious for Robert.
According to the Bible, a united human race, in the generations following the Flood, speaking a single language and migrating westward, came to the land of Shinar (Mesopotamia). There they agree to build a city and a tower tall enough to reach heaven. Robert's god was pissed off about this so muddled up their speech so that they can no longer understand each other so building the city and tower failed through misunderstandings.
OK, that's it, I don't think a collaboration between Robert and me is a good idea.
* Yeah right!
