I really like popcorn, especially with white cheddar powder to sprinkle on it.

We have a daily paper in the UK called the 'Daily Express'. I put it on sale every day, and every day without fail it's leading headline concerns the weather (always bad), Alzheimers (how you're going to get it and what to do to avoid it) and Arthritis (new wonder drug [name] produced by [name] that will cure it with one jab/pill/cream). Such blatant marketing (in the case of the last two) wrapped up as journalism and presented to the public as news (you can almost see the pund signs dripping from the all but drug adverts of the last type) is insulting and surely boardering on the illegal. Why do people swallow this crap?

We used to take the Daily Express, but now we just have a weekly Lincolnshire Echo and the Sunday Express (mainly for the crossword in the magazine that comes with it). Daily papers are too expensive and neither of us had time to read them. C has the Irish Post weekly and reads that thoroughly.

No, that's the Sun. One of the much worse tabloids.

I think my cat is smarter than I give her credit for, and I already credit her with a high degree of brain.

I was lying comfortably on the couch in an area we both staunchly claim as our own territory, (think Israel Palestine but with less hope of a two-state solution). She was eyeballing me from the arm of the couch. When I refused to cede any land, she jumped down and walked away. A minute later I hear rustling in my jigsaw puzzle box on the kitchen table and get up to discover her throwing pieces on the ground. I tell her to scat and pick up the pieces. She refuses to pick them up so I do. When I'm done, I return to the lounge room where she is lying on the couch looking at me with the smugest look on her face.

Well played cat. Well played.

Hi Linna, I would attempt to answer your question about the human preference for binary simplicity but I started thinking about it and it involved too many factors so I put it back unopened. Perhaps someone whose brain is less broken will swing by to discuss the matter further.

Which is why Lord Foul would be a cat masquerading as a snake, if TCTC took place in the animal kingdom.

I'm thinking Finns should begin preaching for the authentic sauna culture in the States. There's no evidence whatsoever of nudity harming children, and, if anything, might help promote a healthier body image. Lots of naked people in the church paintings too.
