Total Eclipse of the Sun, 1882. Chromolithograph after a pastel drawing by astronomer, artist, and amateur entomologist Étienne Léopold Trouvelot, who died on this day in 1895.

Ha! McDaniel I have only been vaguely aware of and irritated by, but maybe he stands out a little less in the Young Guy Rush the NFL has undergone. Whereas Rosenior is patently a ludicrous figure in the context of the Prem, and has been from the get-go.
Why did I not make the link. They are twins! 🤦🏼♂️
Mind blown!
The movies are back, baby

This article was designed to troll English teachers with no chill (me), to pull us from our hovels so we can be identified & put on some loser database. WHY ELSE is The Tempest at no.25, why is Love's Labours Lost above Henry V, The Winter's Tale and Coriolanus, etc etc. A scam!
I suppose "from Hell's heart I stab at thee etc." would be too much.

"April is the driest month... no, that's not it. April is the balmiest month? The pleasantest month? Damn you, TS Eliot!"

"It means what I want it to mean. Stop being so semantic."
Surely only a matter of time before "He is the urbane of my life, that fellow" is seen in the wild (and over time adopted as acceptable usage).
It’s bin day. Blue bag for paper and card; red bag, metal and plastic. Blue bin for glass. Red bin for radioactive substances and rage. Yellow bin: mustard, custard and cowardice. White bin: ignorance and stupidity. Emerald for esoteric arts, sacred knowledge and lost wisdom. Save the planet.
Salutary and mind-boggling reporting. Feels like an awful lot of complex financial activity for very little return - as an asset, or as what it actually is, a team that people support and want to win matches and trophies.
"'Allo"

A poignant wag.
*Ouch!*
Whatever about the merits of the book (which seem scant), am greatly enjoying the stimulus it has given to the critics reviewing it. Ouch and bravo, Marcel!
Not the first time this has happened on the letters page of the paper of record. Sad to see someone lose their Scheidt in print.

Wow
God love them with their "we built this city" tifo pre-match (although tbf it was not as lame as Arsenal's continually feeble efforts).

Today, information: pulverized, nonhierarchized, dealing with everything: nothing is protected from information and at the same time nothing is open to reflection.
