Field Theory: Japan Part Two: It's…, in reply to recordari,
Seems strange the story is so hard to find, and I’m starting to wonder if I dreamt it
Or just sat musing, saying to yourself, "But...but...if it had a glass bottom, wouldn't people be able to.....????

The wonderful Eddie Izzard!
I've been looking for another of his I heard once on bFM - laughed so hard I missed half of it - but it was a swipe at the Royals, and in particular, Prince Philip (the Greek!). Can't find it though. I like his one about the fly too.

Field Theory: Japan Part Two: It's…, in reply to Max Call,
The doors closed and the whole ‘shop’ started moving downwards.
So it was a lift, masquerading as a wee shop? Fantastic.

Legal Beagle: Coalition of Losers, in reply to Stephen Judd,
“Thirty members of the Great Council, chosen by lot, were reduced by lot to nine; the nine chose forty and the forty were reduced by lot to twelve, who chose twenty-five. The twenty-five were reduced by lot to nine and the nine elected forty-five. Then the forty-five were once more reduced by lot to eleven, and the eleven finally chose the forty-one who actually elected the doge.”
Oh yes. Let's do it like that!

I don’t know, but I am fairly certain we could find an audience for that show.
A multiplicity of secretions! The mind biggles!

The Languishing Lactator is also my stage name, strange to say. ;)
Really? Where do you perform - or is this an inappropriate question?

So does this mean your other half is there while you languish, lactating, at home?

Does anything else think
Are you claiming other non-sentient beings have achieved higher consciousness? Houston, we have lift off.
O for heavens' sake! As someone who is totally anal about checking stuff before posting, I can't believe I did that....although it was just before bed-time, and after a strange movie....
And I'm not at the BDO either - I'd double the average age by just turning up!

Up Front: Giving Me Grief, in reply to Joe Wylie,
Condolences to you, too, Joe.

I did enjoy this post, but while reading about beer and Japan, I got to wondering a little about it, mainly because of my cousin's Japanese wife, and her hilarious description of her father's fruitless efforts to practise drinking so he could "have a beer" with his son-in-law-to-be (after half a glass, he had to go and lie down). But then, I guess it's not all Japanese who can't take alcohol, or there wouldn't be sake, would there?
