A slug in your coffee... yuck. Once or twice when not quite awake I've flipped fag ash into mine instead of the adjacent ashtray, but a slug is on a whole different scale. I don't think I'd be sick but it might put me off coffee.

For a second there I thought you intended Roger Elliot of Uncommon Forum.

Dawkins attacks Yahweh as a nasty piece of work. Much of the Old Testament shows a god that deserves attacking, capricious and deeply unpleasant. St Paul in the New Testament is deeply misogynist too. The whole really is a mishmash of pretty much anyone who was literate, which very likely didn't in...

I recommend The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins, if you haven't already read it.

The gurus never tell us there's some secret plan to stop cancer or halt poverty. The plots are negative. They wouldn't be plots otherwise. So, Charlie Manson used race and the some war with African Americans but these days we're back to Jewish figures in shady circles - a familiar pattern. Not ever...

Why are Jews always blamed? They are often not Christian but of a minority religion. I'm not Jewish but I don't believe Jesus was the son of God either and neither did gnostics.

I'd spent most of my working life in the print media, so much so that I was unlikel...

Dogs are a pack animal although mine came to bond more with me than other dogs, though he loved to play and run with some dogs. My Pippy was the same: ever loyal to me, but naturally he wanted to run with the pack whenever we went to the park. I wouldn't say I was traumatised by his death, but I wa...

More recently we had hysteria over Covid with "the unvaccinated" being resented, victimised and threatened. Yes, we were all granny killers, weren't we! We were right to be suspicious of a "vaccine" that was available so soon after The Pandemic was announced. You'd think no one ...

Other mammals are as individual as people are. My mother-in-law's present cat sleeps on her bed during the day but gets shut out at night. M-I-L is never without a cat. She gets them from the Cats Protection people and had a bad run for a while because several were on their last legs when she took t...
