Oh. Wow. Thanks for the encouragement. 3 down, 12 to go. Hmm. Another 4 days ? Voting to end when ? In time for a New Year's Do :party:

Yes. And a Special Suprapubic too :mask:

Simmering sexual tension. Heightened awareness of being watched when working makes him clumsy. Never been there ? :blush:

Absolutely bloody brilliant. How do you say that in Russian ? -------- The Christmas That Was Not. So... Why Was It Not? Santa too drunk ? Smashed the...

Thanks. Breathes sigh of relief...

Merry Christmas :party: Christmas:

I stand corrected. I respect Ray Monk :sparkle:

I'll focus on this: The various roles humans play, for sure, important and as interesting now as ever. They are not necessarily public. The role of a ...

I don't know but I think we should invite Varoufakis along to be a Guest Speaker. And flay him alive. Perhaps practise first on @"Banno" - but then ag...

Thanks so much, emancipate :up: Pretty much what I suspected. It troubles annoys me when sources aren't given. Not good practice. Disappointing.

Thanks but couldn't find it in the limited time I have for this guy. No great loss.

Sorry for dropping in on a thread I haven't read but... Where does AC Grayling say this ? He is wrong but that doesn't surprise me.

Hmmm. 'One leaves the household and engages in political affairs'. 'One' would be a man, no ? So, those left behind ( wives/children) taking care of h...

Following your post and wonderful quotes, just read a bit in the Guardian.

Now there's a challenge. Looking forward to reading them all. You brilliant people :fire:
