Religious tolerance

I was walking across a bridge one day, and I saw a man standing on the edge, about to jump off. So I ran over and said "Stop! don't do it!" "Why shouldn't I?" he said. I said,...

Did you have a power cut over the weekend?

Could you do this job? And would you want to anyway?

My closest friend is the mother of a cop and she asked me to share this. I'm not making any comment, but it's worth watching this through to the end. Food for thought.

Has anyone scaled a 'brick wall' in their family tree and been surprised at what they've found?

I'd be really interested in hearing other people's tales of how they've got past those notorious family history brick walls that we all come up against from time to time. The reason is that I'm...

Do cats think TV is real?

We have a 16-year-old moggie, who until very recently was a ferocious hunter of anything smaller than himself, but he is starting to slow down a bit now. A couple of times recently we've been watching...

"Oriental" riff?

Just been listening to 'Turning Japanese' by the Vapors and discussing how the opening bar is the same as Carl Douglas's 'Kung Fu Fighting'. Presumably this is an actual tune from somewhere - any...

How can anyone have thought this was really the Kazakhstan national anthem?

But all respect to the athlete who took it in good grace. I can't help wondering if the idiot whose fault this was is still alive, though....

The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel

I went to see this film last night, and was rather disappointed. Visually beautiful and some good one-liners, but otherwise it was a bit dull. I'd be interested to know what other people think.
