  1. Week 47 update One death this week, former First Lady of the United States Rosalynn Carter: US ex-President Jimmy Carter's wife Rosalynn dies aged 96 - BBC News The way the BBC website uses line breaks for single sentences, really, really annoys me. There's a slightly more detailed epitaph for her on the Carter Center's website, which she and Jimmy set up after he left office: Rosalynn Carter, Former First Lady and Founder of The Carter Center Can you imagine being married to someone for 77 years? Carter died at 96 so she's worth 29 Base Points for @HibsFan, @lichtgilphead and @TxRover. As a result, the standings look like this: 1. cdhafc1874 422 2.

  2. I had the misfortune of watching the news when I was on my lunch today and walked in on the middle of an interview with an Israeli guy. HAMAS AND ISIS ARE JIHADI TERRORISTS THEY'RE TRYING TO DESTROY US IF WE DON'T STOP THEM YOU WILL BE NEXT IT'S LIKE WORLD WAR 2 THEY'RE WORSE THAN THE NAZIS. I am not paraphrasing, or misusing capital letters. Maybe they need a PR guru.
  3. Any reference to "Viz" characters or strips from any of the resident geriatrics.
  4. Wonder if @Flybhoy is jealous about people going somewhere else for plumbing advice.
  5. Can you imagine what Twitter would have been like when Senna got disqualified at Suzuka? "Mental illness" wouldn't cover it.
  6. That thumbnail alone is making me never want to watch television again.
  7. Anyone who thinks motor racing is uninteresting is, objectively, unintelligent. Cricket, golf, rugby, American football, take your pick between cricket and rugby for fifth place. I'll add cycling for the last spot, purely because of the amount of media attention it seems to get in this country.
  8. Back in my day the Head's Gone thread got deleted because of a sprawling, week-long, multi-poster meltdown, not because some plants with an axe to grind did some concern trolling about people being mean about Tories.
  9. Some effort by Chuck on the last lap but what is Perez doing? That corner is single file. Park it on the left and the position is yours.
  10. Week 46 update One death this week, the writer A. S. Byatt: AS Byatt, author and critic, dies aged 87 | AS Byatt | The Guardian The Guardian's obituary is a bit fuller and I'm honestly a bit in awe at the apparent scale of her career and intellect: AS Byatt obituary | Fiction | The Guardian I've only read Possession. It was a long time ago, the Victorian poetry inserts were a bit naff, and the film wasn't very good. Byatt died at 87 so she's worth 38 Base Points for me. She was also a Solo Shot, so I get 88 points total. As a result, the standings look like this: 1. cdhafc1874 422 2. JustOneCornetto 405 3. psv_killie 376 4. gkneil 369 5. Karpaty Lviv 300 6.

  11. I regret to inform the forum that the McDonald's eyebrow advert has become christmassy and added Jump by Van Halen.
  12. It's a shame Raikkonen isn't around anymore. I'm sure he'd really enjoy the show.
  13. Look at the gaps in the mortar below the window.
