I was blown away by The Plough And The Stars earlier in the year and promised myself i would do it more often.Last edited by oleras; 05-09-16, 23:08.This too shall pass.

It's diverse and interesting and well worth a read if you have time.

/ in unrelated news, they redid all the toilets in the uni over the summer and they're all now gender-neutral, as in anyone can use any bathroom. Seems a way better idea as there's much more toilets to choose from. You'd wonder why toilets are generally still segregated except that 100 years ago men and women weren't allowed to be seen in public together. Read a story that 'back in the day' Yale and Harvard both gave as the reason why they couldn't allow women into their law school was because they didn't have any women's toilets.
Well that's my deep thought / observation of the day done

Africans are better runners due to short torsos long limbs, opposite for europeans as makes us better swimmers. How different people deal with pain etc.

Fond memories of the Penalli Pen set ad. They appear to have dropped the Penalli name though

I'm going to pull the trigger on a few things soon myself but the independent online reviews on various pen forums for this site are very good.‘IF YOU had not committed great sins, God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you.” Genghis Khan

98% of everything I write is on a computer 90% of the 2% is with the only really useful writing implement, a pencil.
