    I'd be more interested if it was the desecration of Yogi and Boo Boo

    Speaking of fantasy literature, I always thought Yahweh, Ba'al, Lot, Amaziah, Job, Abednego, Ham, and Gad were kind of silly.

    I bet you dream about desecrating Bruce . . .

    Have you no imagination at all?

    Because the Irish in Boston lost their native Gaelic tongues.

    I just left my sons school Christmas party. Let me assure you, my imagination is working just fine. Maybe too well.

    Wouldn't it be better for the kilts to meet up with the Laker girls?

    It has been remarked that in Tolkein, the dwarves sound and act like the Scottish, the Elves like the Welsh, the Hobbits like the English, the Rohirrim like the Vikings, and the Gondorians like the Romans.

    I think the orcs must be like the Arabs. :D
