Enough for a Season
Words to come here about last week when I have summoned them up. Possibly from a cauldron. Not sure yet. Am still rejecting and rejigging important stuff, and dear Lord, do I have to get on with the other half of my Summer Quiz Project, which might very well turn out to be the Autumn Quiz Shebang.
For now, savour watching Ricky Gervais sidekick and goggle-eyed lanky freak of a deathly blond beanpole - I could go on and on and heap further demeaning epithets on this fellow - Stephen Merchant compete as a contestant on Blockbuster.
He sure knows his rubbish eighties pop music, a trait shared by many of my quiz contemporaries. A trait, or do I mean symptom. Of a disease. I'm not too sure. It also goes to show that there is a very faint, flickering chance that quiz show contestants can go on to far more magnificient and esteemed things. The same kind of chance Lottery ticket buyers contemplate when they get those potentially jackpot winning numbers, I suppose.
FE:X
1 Published posthumously in 1971, A Happy Death was the first novel written by which French writer-philosopher?
