Not a clue.....

I'm amazed that people are still willing to waste their breath, utterly ridiculous.

Keeps firing off clichés with startling precision,
Like a sniper using bks for ammunition.

Hello Tim

I firmly believe 'Storm' should be taught in schools.

You have to be in PP to get on the list?

Very well then, but he'd better cuddle afterwards.

JAYB, what is going on? I've just spotted your 'bizarre', why are people going all mental at the moment?

No idea on that one. The post and response seemed to have no reasonable relationship that I could see.

It was more like a drunk shouting in the street.

Put in there for size comparison

Handy. Most won't have a clue as to the size of a PlayStation controller thingamybob, but the addition of a brake calliper makes it obvious.

Ta.

So, you call your first child 'E'. Just 'E'.

What do you call your second?

Yo Xing Heyno Augustus Eisner Alexander Weiser Knuckles.

Obviously.

I'm sure some of you have been desperate for news on my little decking project, following your most helpful advice.

This was what it looked like:



And this is it now. I have eschewed my normal bodge approach and have spent a lot more time than I thought I would prepping and then refinishing between coats, damping down and cleaning etc, but overall, nearly there. Will be varnishing tomorrow.

[Justayellowbadge]

Now I have to move.

[Justayellowbadge]

Thanks, all.

I had some good advice, which really helped.

Well, I had to pop out and get some cash tonight (around 9.30) having forgotten to get some earlier. I took some properly uninhabited back roads on the way home, and what should I stumble upon but 2 corsas parked up on the verge, with the young lady driver of one noshing off the young male driver of the other in his back seat. I think they were a bit surprised too!
Oh, and then I accidentally ran over a badger a little further down the road. Daft sod wandered right out in front of me


Ah, the joys of living in the sticks!


Right, bedtime methinks given my 5.30 alarm for SS tomorrow!

Of course, none of this happened.

Well I'm going to Govan for breakfast with them. Yes, I'll try not to get stabbed or get a black eye, anything like that"

Doubtful.

And so it begins.

The only time Peter Sellars and Rupert Brooke worked together, I believe.

The result was pure poetry.

Just reminding myself of this. I was fortunate to have a humorous uncle who put some of the crucial 60's radio and Python sketches on a compilation tape when I was a nipper. I remember 'Bal-Ham' but didn't know that Peter Sellers was re-working Frank Muir/Denis Norden's original writing.

I had this, and wore it out.

I'm so tempted to suggest a cull is in order reading Chim's comment in the evolution thread.

Agreed, really has reached a new low in fkwittery

Yes, empirically you get to something like Aristotelian prime matter - what an atheist philosopher of science might call a sea of potentialities as the first cause in the sense of brutest fact we can get to - whereas logically you get to pure actuality. The only big difference is that the sea of potentialities still need actualisation, and I'm not sure how the empiricist solves this.

And there are fking megabytes of it from one mentally ill individual on that thread.

It is a staggering wkfest of delusional proportions.

The empiricist solves this by observing (as we can do) that its entirely possible for these potentialities to actualise naturally.

So we can demonstrate this argument both ways, logically and empirically. Just because I didn't flesh out all the 'etc etc' steps doesn't mean that they haven't been fleshed. They have, using repeatable, falsifiable tests which can be demonstrated to be correct.

Yes, but that is called into question if you subscribe to the Ashmolean point of view, and consider that a knife, sharpened in the imagination, retains the sweat memory of it's mother.Clearly demonstrating that, to a theist, the fundamental essence of 2 pandas is unquestionably a demi-Benedict Cumberbatch.

But you still choose to ignore Popper's "Iron law of explanation" rule, which time and again confirms the undeniability of cheese. If I can see the cheese on the plate, no amount of negative reality inversion, real or theoretical, can lead to a paradigm where the cheese might been seen to be only notionally present. There are parallels here with Voltaire's "Um-Bongo quotient". One of the undisputed foundations of The Enlightenment.

They think it in the congo.
