Pennis was funny and the celebs he cornered were not in on the joke, that are here.
Cunk was a decent 5 minute joke but dragging it out to multi series 30 minute show is an absolute waste of the considerable talents involved with itTurning millions into thousands

This is something that just about everyone in Ireland has (without the need of a singing instructor, fk me).
edit : Mine is American Pie, don't hate me people. I usually get stopped by popular demand after the 2nd verse.

Any recommendations would be most gratefully received!
Late to this but you could check out Kevin Sharkey or Alice Fitzgerald - both very different but both abstract

I wonder could you also generate some interesting ideas on MidJourney and get them printed. The wife did that for her bosses' leaving present as they knew there was two types of things she liked, but couldn't find a picture that blended the two.

No! This was the actual reason. Just wanting that one song that could, if necessary, be dragged out. But why not do it properly and keep a singing instructor in a job by paying for a few hours.

The one that got me in mind of it was Spirit in the Sky. On a bit of a 70s thing on Spotify at the moment. And a few of the people I'm meeting in Beijing keep mentioning about going for 'drinks and karaoke'. Like grown adult men - actual honest-to-goodness finance professors - are saying that.Last edited by Hitchhiker's Guide To...; 27-03-23, 14:36."We're not f*cking Burundi" - Big Phil

Okay, due to your positive validation I've sent a musical instructor called Francesco a request to start learning a few songs. If anyone else needs to be persuaded to do something against their will, its your go now. Francesco has many years of classical Italian music training so will presumably be delighted with the opportunity to spread his wings towards Spirit in the Sky."We're not f*cking Burundi" - Big Phil

I'm getting my questions in first:
What's the promise with something like a facelift - like do they tell you that you'll look ten years younger or something specific?
And ... does it 'expire', as in, does your body catch up eventually and you then need repair work."We're not f*cking Burundi" - Big Phil

Kellie Harrington giving herself a beating on OTB. You'd wonder.This may or may not be an original thought of my own.
All efforts were made to make this thought original but with the abundance of thoughts in the world the originality of this thought cannot be guaranteed.

TBF, they appear to have taken some of that feedback onboard and at least they’re more transparent on the budget.
Almost 200k for a <400sqft extension this year did seem pretty insane though.
Home of the year isn’t too bad in that regard, the multi-million euro mansions often make finals but don’t necessarily win.
You can AirBnB one of my favs from it and the year that featured the winner was a pretty unique converted carriage house.

See a story where a school principal in Florida was ‘forced out’ for showing children pictures of Michelangelo’s David. Parents describing it as pornographic.
Some of them are probably pro-gun and have no problem with kids being shot in schools.

They likely think more guns are the answer, but that's a different thing. They are mental in many ways, no need to make something up to make them sound more mental.
The gun control issue is a product of america’s insane history, impractical size, crime rate and legal system. There’s no shirt term solution imo.

That’s akin to having no problem with it in my book.
