Happy Birthday Notapotato. My gift to you is my 500th post

8 right brained and 10 left brained for me. Does that make me te most well balanced person here?

You know, it's this kind of abandon-all-hope-when-the-chips-are-down mentality that is really a source of consternation for me. It's like sports "fans" (and I use that in the loosest sense of the word) who wholeheartedly "support" their team when it is doing well, but as soon as the team's chips are down, the so-called "fans" lose interest and their support wanes. You gotta support the team come what may, iain. The DL may not be doing so well at the moment, but with our support it'll turn around. Even if we went a year (gasp! knock on wood!) without a death, we should all stil be rallying around in support of The Team. Well put ie+

Nicholas Parsons and Clement Freud

William Russel who played Ian in early Doctor Who. He's at least 80 and is looking well on recent Doctor Who DVDs Barry Letts another one who is known by Doctor Who fans

I thought it was France he'd moved to. I'm considering choosing Peter for my 2007 list. Not sure why though

If you were an asteroid, which country would you hit? My Results: Colombia. You've taken out the cocaine. You dumb bastard.

He was on the front of our local paper today with a big smile on his face and attached to some blonde. I didn't read the article but he looked very healthy.

You mean: it's there to make you puke? That doesn't sound healthy. regards, Hein No I don't go in for that. Inidently there is a bit in Tony's book where he is beting on the demise of Pope John Paul II. He thinks it would be funny if he died during his visit to Lourdes. Perhaps he's one of the celebreties who enjoys tis site.

He might have won the lottery...

Desert Island Discs for today. Ask me again next week and it'll be totally different Celuloid Heroes - The Kinks Sunday Morning - Velvet Underground Frog Princess - Divine Comedy Science Fiction Double Feature - RHPS Soundtrack Shock Treatment - Shock Treatment Sondtrack Rainy Days and Mondays - Carpenters Creque Alley - Mamas and the Papas Pencil Skirt - Pulp See Emily Play - Pink Floyd Girlfriend in a Coma to the tune of Tiptoe through the Tulips as sung by Tony Hawks om ISIHAC My luxury would be a vi, no better not, a space hopper

Paul McCartney once said that he noticed that Jimi Hendrix was a bit depressed, so he invited him to dinner at his house but... Jimi died before the dinner! And later, he knew Keith was a bit... crazy and lonely... and so he and Linda decide to invite him for a dinner and... he also died before that! (I LOVE Paul very much, but I don´t think I´d like him to invite me to dinner...!) Just shows you the lengths some people go to to avoid eating a Linda McCartney lasagne

Pardon my being a Canucklehead, but what does it mean to be given the freedom of a town? The possession of the rights and privileges of a freeman of the city; formerly often, and now occasionally, conferred on one not a resident, as a mark of honorary distinction for public services. I remember one person telling me that they were once listed as having the freedom of the City of London. When I looked up the priviliges, apparently they were permitted to lead their cattle over London Bridge I am lead to believe that in my hometown, York, a Freeman of the City is also entitled to shoot Scotsmen, dressed in kilts, with a crossbow if said Scotsman is within the City walls. Anyone is allowed to shoot a Scotsman here but only if said Scotsman is on Peel beach wearing a kilt

If you life were a movie what rating would it be? Mine's a rather dull 12A http://www.bart666.com/index.php/projects/movie-rating-quiz/

I've just bought Tony Hawks' latest "Piano in the Pyrenees" and Karen Carpenter's biography, appropriately the latter is in the bathroom

I know we have George Melly on the list so how about his sister Andree? I don't know an awful lot about what she's up to now but she was fairly ubiquitous in the 1960s and 1970s and then she just fell off the radar. She was born in 1932 if that makes any difference

Likewise, but for HSBC. All perfectly amiable, but they ask you to spell EVERYTHING! Even London ! There are lots of reasons for that though not just being unable to spell. I work in offshore phone banking and believe me everything HAS to be confirmed back with the customer even words like Street etc as we have to cover ourselves and you get into trouble if you don't check spellings. Having said that I've seen some very odd spellings from my English speaking colleagues including the misspelling of box Secondly with bad telephone lines, noisy call centres and different accents it can be easy to mistake words so again you have to check It's bloody stupid I know but don't blame the poor call centre workers

Does Greenpeace Lead the Elderly Astray and Will Channel 4 Give Cliff Richard Cancer were my favourites

I'm sorry but you really have no excuse for your poor spelling then

My £10 goes on the premise that he posts as somebody else and he's never been away. He could be any one of us......

So do I, but he's big enough to fend for himself so I vote we leave him alone and he'll come home wagging his tail etc.... Fair enough. I'm putting 10GBP on him never having existed and he was just a mass hallucination of ours

I have his e-mail address. Do you want me to contact him? Or if anyone has had more to do with him than I have then I can pass on is e-mail?

I'm a Unitarian Universalist ( 100%) Okaaay. I'm with Magere Hein in describing myself as an atheist, so I don't know where that Uniwotsiting Unithingimibobby came from! I got exactly the same result as you and I describe myself as agnostic bordering on atheist. Oh well
