Have just been to a philosophy group from which an elderly woman was ejected on the grounds that she'd been previously banned from the venue. I'm desperate to know what she'd done to be banned. Laughing out loud

Winterlight shouldn't have had that coffee after 6pm. He still feels wide awake.

I think she probably kept quoting Socrates saying "We are all dust in the wind" and refused to accept that she was actually quoting Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure. And then things got heated when she started singing Bruce's Philosophy Song.

Ben is hoping to break 15,000 posts in the next day or two.

I'm nearing 10,000

Scrumping is apples. It's like saying apple cider, and how dare you question me, Sir!

While usually Apples, it ain't always. http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702303738504575568070411401644

Apparently it is also a sex position, so it is not wise to Google[scrumping] while at work.

Can't imagine it's cost effective. 4 tealights put out hardly any light, so presumably they give you about as much heat as a dim light bulb.

Was she David Smith?

Bear in mind this was a guy who used to rely on the heat from his monitor to warm the room....

Ben has just been complemented on how clean his car exterior is.

Did she also like the performance of your "car"?
