    I had a page. I got tired of the drama and had it deleted.

     

    Facebook really makes you jump through hoops to get your account deleted.

    Facebook keeps 'deleted' user photos online for years. Direct URLs of 'deleted' information still available 30+ months later. Why would anyone expect them to delete the vast mine of freely supplied, correlated and cross-linked user information in their data warehouse?

    'Deletion' in their case appears to be deletion of the web-facing interface, not deletion of the source.

    No surprise there.

    I really think that she should have treated herself to a new hairdo, it's not as if she's got all the time in the world in which to do so,is it?

    She can't. It's all part of the reptilian bodysuit she was given when she hatched.

    It's looking like it might need a bit of a dry clean, iron and refit now as it's getting a bit saggy.

    Great stuff. Just like the good old days.

    For the record, I like the whinges. I like the rants. I like the banter back and forth between the regulars and I like a good stoush every once in a while. I like the black humour and I like the fact that there are "regulars" here, whether you like 'em or loathe them. It's like a good old public bar boozy discussion.

    I don't care much for nutters on the interweb, or in life generally, but they do allow you the opportunity to sharpen your teeth and provide sport and entertainment of a sort.

    I feel a bit like Waldorf and Statler at times, but nevertheless, carry on...

    Did Maryport just kill Norman Wisdom?

    There's no evidence!

    You say that like it's going to be a problem.

    Sounds like he had a pretty poor life to start with...

    His mother left home when he was nine, leaving him in the charge of his alcoholic father. His father gave him away to a family in Deal, Kent. The young Norman eventually tracked down his father, only to have the door slammed in his face when he showed up. He never saw him again.

    Leaving school at 13, he became an errand boy with a grocery store, He also worked as a a coal miner, waiter and cabin-boy, where the crew would make him box for money.

    As a teenager, he slept rough on the streets until someone suggested he join the army, seeing service in India and finally finding somewhere he felt he belonged.

    Is the world a remotely better place for having Michael c***ing Douglas in it?

     

    I can see your cynicism but - oddly - I'd contend that, against all expectations, Catherine Zeta Jones did become a better actress after having Michael Douglas in her.

     

     

    If I'd had my tea, which I haven't yet, it would now be all down my jumper with all diced carrots in it. Thanks for that image, Mary.......

    ... the reason being that after having MD in her, her acting skills would indisputably have improved; "oh Micky, you're the best." I mean, "It's just so B I G ", "Oooh, it's soooo huge, you almost touched the sides," etc, etc.

    He's being moved to an open prison - looks like his time inside will be 'Club Tropicana' compared to what most cons have to endure.

    When they refer to Prisoner George Michael and an open prison, it makes me wonder if they're using the term in the same way as an 'open marriage.'

    For some reason the term pin cushion comes to mind.

    The Mensa test is allegedly the most accurate.

    Arguably it's the most accurate at judging your capability of completing standardised IQ tests.

    Sadly, it is not a good measurement of the pompous gittishness of the people passing such a test.

    Having been invited to a post-test meet-and-greet soirée, to paraphrase Groucho, you can stick your club up your arse, or summat.
