Octopus of Odstock 1,861 Posted July 12, 2013 Good pick, Spade. I considered him, but ruled him out mainly on age grounds, but also I had a tiny concern about an obit, which of course, was folly. Boy, have I learnt my lesson about notability this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Magere Hein 1,397 Posted May 6, 2015 Could go in about 25 different threads this, but... Conjoined twins Saba and Farah have gone on hunger strike in protest at the jailing of Bollywood icon Salman Khan, who has been sent down for five years due to a 2002 hit and run. I can't say I care about the twins one way or another. I do think that 5 years for killing one and injuring four in a hit-and-run while pissed, seems right, perhaps rather lenient. A friend of mine, who is a public prosecutor, got a main jailed for 6 years for manslaughter after a fatal DUI accident (so a hit-without-run). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
