You don't think he went a bit over the top? :)

The Menu. I honestly don't know whether to suggest you watch it. I just want someone to tell me ''why''.

We have a Funnies board in our library. Today it had. "I married my wife for her looks, but not the ones she's been giving me lately."

That's lovely.

I've just finished Miriam Margolyes' autobiography This Much is True and have just started Robin Hobbs' 3rd book in the Rain Wild series. There was a time when, if you highlighted some text and then hit "italicise", that text would be italicised. It is some weeks since that worked for me.

Yeah, nah. That's a lot of bull.

You don't live with him.

You get Pluto, you just don't get bragging rights for it.

I've been reading The Life You Can Save, Peter Singer, in the gaps of other reading. Just finished it. It is available as a free spoken book, and presumably an e-book, and I highly recommend reading it. I prefer to hold a book but evidently some quite famous people read chapters. Stephen Fry...

Just finished Wolf Hall, Hilary Mantel. Instantly got online and tracked down the sequel. The writing style is a little odd. You have to take a minute to figure out who is talking, and who the author is referring to, but that slows down your reading and is not a bad thing, IMV. I like her...

Thanks, Arctish. That was well worth watching.

Help me. I nearly died laughing. Edit to add: That image doesn't just make me laugh, I can't get it out of my head. Pizza boxes are probably good fibre.

US, stick to the thread topic (and stop misrepresenting others). I've read the whole thread, and the only person who has used this sort of language is yourself, in that ^ post. And you were too mealy mouthed to use the actual swear words. Try arguing your position in good faith. You might...

Bettany's Book. Tom Keneally Keneally writes an entertaining novel and also throws light on issues that need air.

You're right. You'd just be a believer in aliens, if you got to shake hands with one.

The Extraordinary Journey of the Fakir. Light and cheerful. 7/10

I would likely be religious today if 5 conditions had been met in my upbringing. 1/. I was raised by people who genuinely believed in a god and 2/. who were New Testament, rather than fire and brimstone Christians and 3/. who practiced what they preached. 4/. I had very little access to...

A lot depends on life stage. People have lived with what looks to us like deficiency. They survive, but they don't grow properly. This might be a good place to talk about something that I have never found the explanation for. On one of the Arctic/Antarctic expeditions (Scott, Shackleton ... ?)...

Did you bob up and down and say "Hello Cocky"?

Watching Wagon Train, as a kid, I saw Hamlet, Macbeth, King Lear, Romeo and Juliet and probably a few more, long before I knew enough about Shakespeare to be able to recognise them. Why waste a universal plot if you're running dry one week? The Orville deals with modern concerns in much the...
