Ha ha ha !

I just found out today that Dr. Ralph Stanley has recorded acapella
versions of the Velvet Underground's "White Light/White Heat" and
Captain Beefheart's "Sure 'nuff 'n' Yes I Do" for the soundtrack to

I haven't heard them yet because I'm still at work, but I've been
thinking about it all day!

I am quite good at making my liver loathe me, however.

If only you could get a reliable signal on a toilet, we could all dump our mobiles. As it were.

A thing i learned today.............You absolutely are a funny fucker

Apparently, some woman who is a member of the royal family has breasts. Bit of a shock, but seemingly true because there are actual photographs of them in France.
