I love that 'Moon River' song

I once got to sing "Music To Watch Girls By" with the legendary Johnny 7 at a wedding. I was channelling Andy Williams all the way. Brilliant - he will be missed.

My voice is too powerful for an Andy Williams style...I'm more of a Harry Secombe.

I'm more of a Spike Milligan. But even if I had a good voice, I wouldn't adopt Andy Williams's style.

"How is it that hardly any major religion has looked at science and concluded, 'This is better than we thought! The Universe is much bigger than our prophets said, grander, more subtle, more elegant. God must be even greater than we dreamed'? Instead they say, 'No, no, no! My god is a little god, and I want him to stay that way.'" - Carl Sagan

"Mit der Dummheit kämpfen Götter selbst vergebens."
("Against stupidity, the gods themselves contend in vain.")
-- Friedrich Schiller (1759–1805)
Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away.

OK, now let's look at four dimensions on the blackboard.
-- Dr. Joy
English isn't much of a language for swearing. When I studied Ancient Greek I was delighted to discover a single word - Rhaphanidosthai - which translates roughly as "Be thou thrust up the fundament with a radish for adultery."
