Sorry, hadn't looked in here for a while! Thank you everybody for the kind birthday wishes. I had a lovely day, thank you for asking.

That article is bullshit for the following reasons: 1) It is in the Sun 2) It isn't true 3) see 1) and 2)

Ah, the old "Do as I say, not as I do" gambit. The technical term is hypocrisy, I seem to remember. regards, Hein I don't remember him telling me not to shag any billionaire heiresses. And if he had done I wouldn't have paid him the blindest bit of attention.

I had to check back, but as I suspected that quote is from me. Coming from Scotland as I do with roots from what used to be County Durham, I see North as a relative thing. And anyway, the miners in Nottinghamshire weren't proper miners were they? That doesn't detract however from the truth of what I wrote. Who your grandmother is related to isn't much of an argument. One of my grandmothers had a commendation from Margaret Thatcher which she kept face down in the bottom of a box. She's dead by the way. You read it here first.

George W. Bush was a disgrace to humanity, to politics and to whatever university he allegedly attended, but he was a credit to the Republican party. He was highly adept at doing all the stupid things Republicans like. He may or may not have been a disgraceful president depending on whether Adam Smith was being cynical or not when he said that governments exist to protect rich people from poor people.

It strikes me we're looking at a case of someone who seems much less ill because he isn't having any more chemotherapy. He could also be feeling great, particularly if he's pumped full of morphine. It doesn't necessarily mean he has long to live.

Interestingly enough, I seem to have got to the bottom of the rejected emails problem. It is the word "socialism" which contains the substring "cia lis" (comes up as "SPAM" on deathlist too if you write it together) which I am assured is the name of a proprietary brand of erection enhancement medicine or somesuch. Does anyone know a simile or perhaps a euphemism for socialism?

Wrong thread, but a nice hat nevertheless.

I'll send it to you again when I get around to sending it to Vaagheid and that other chap who still hasn't given me an alternative address. There are a couple of facts to be corrected in it too as someone very kindly pointed out.

I see Margaret Moth has died. That means points for me, and perhaps more interestingly for DDT who looks to consolidate his lead somewhat. In other news, two notification emails bounced. I won't deduct points immediately because the potential recipients wouldn't have known about it. This is because Lived so Let's Die and Vaagheid both have Hotmail or otherwise Microsoft related email addresses which think notapotato.com is a spammer. Now I could go to the trouble of creating something called an SPF record and registering it with Microsoft, but I don't know how and quite frankly I can't be bothered finding out. Quite apart from vigorously not wanting to support Microsoft's Quest For The Posession Of All World Knowledge. Wouldn't it be much nicer if those two teams could just provide me with a non-Microsoft alternative email address?

Iain saw that coming way back. A big hand for Iain please!

Aye but Sharon is under constant medical supervision. If his weight gets too low then they'll just put a bit more lard in his drip, or whatever. He's also considerably less likely to die of auto-erotic asphyxiation or of getting run over by a bus than most other people, which statistically speaking raises his life expectancy considerably.

Do we have in our sights yet?

An interesting question to which I will endeavour to provide an answer in the near future. Try asking it on the HDB, perhaps Bellender has an idea. I didn't know John Babcock had died. Is there an obit somewhere?
