How have there been this many replies without She's Leaving Home coming up.
November 26, 2025 at 9:32 PM
She's leaving home.

I think it's not even knowing that outside is better. It's knowing that the people living there are actually human.

When my daughter was about the same age I was sent to buy a winter coat. The girls section was flimsy and pink, the boys robust and green.

About a week later.

Stranger on bus: What's your little boy called?
Wife: SHE'S called Harriet
Sob: That's an unusual name. I've never met a boy called that

I've a shooting stick just like that. Essential if you're going to plonk yourself at the Front of the Pyramid Stage eight hours before the headliner comes on.
So who's playing the Sea of Tranquility this year?

Clearly.

It's been a while, but I took a holiday with the express intention of visiting the Grand Canyon. Hired a car, stayed in hotels, ate in restaurants, bought souvenirs.
Between this and the assumption my posts here would get me refused entry, wouldn't even consider it.

Whoever came up with the idea that God hates vaccines has a lot to answer for.

I can't see how that elaborate shape produces the flat surface in the picture.

Please know that your work (and Tony's and Amy's) is greatly appreciated. Must have listened to about 650 episodes by now.

That's a bull.

The only surprising thing is that anyone's surprised

Yay, Kallyr.

So do double jeopardy rules prevent them finding a qualified lawyer to refile the case?

You misspelt "to distract people from the fact that their president raped children".

Be fair. He's also the most popular British king in 60 years.

That's one hell of a Jenga game you're planning

I probably also have about 90% of the works of John K. Snyder in various editions somewhere in this house.

We believe in three gods
The father, maker of heaven and earth, all things seen and unseen.
The son being of a different substance, who substituted the wrong-doer on the cross and escaped
And while Mary is to be revered, she was not a god.

For some reason Kindle integration is a special treat reserved only for North Americans.
You can though download three books and pass them through Calibre to put them onto your Kindle.
