I don’t know what the official connection is, if any, between the words raven and ravenous. But at the moment I feel like putting forward a theory: Ravenous is the feeling that one is hungry enough to hop about in the grass by the side of the motorway, nibbling on small-to-midsized roadkill and making harsh croaking noises at people who disapprove.
Just a thought. Paul and I are off to the movies now. Digital fish! Wheeee! And also popcorn, god willing.
