  1. Because he settled permanently in Paris at the beginning of WWII - so French became his first language. BTW, It's been Waiting for Godot at SFC for a very long time. But we've now reached the Endgame.
  2. He doesn't live in Hamilton. He lives near Kitchener.
  3. He's not from Hamilton - which already has a CFL team, by the way!
  4. Whereas I think it would be great!
  5. New Dylan album - Together Through Life I'm a big Dylan fan, but this one is a major disappointment. Dylan produced it (using his Jack Frost pseudonym) and the arrangements and mixing are very poorly done. A pretty uninteresting batch of songs, too. New Neil Young album - Fork in the Road This is a solid effort. Play it in your car - and play it LOUD.
  6. Shot from BWP was slightly deflected but with enough power to drift over the line (according to commentary).
  7. Forest have six points on us and a four-goal advantage in goal difference. Those wins would need to be bigger. 3-0 today; 2-0 on last day!
  8. extra's? extras!
  9. 1) None of those proverbs have a similar meaning.
  10. Superb book. Probably my favourite Fowles' novel (although I love The Magus, too). I thought the film was good too (I've seen it several times), although the technique of moving back and forth between the story and the actors filming the story was annoying the first time I saw the film. [Harold Pinter wrote the screenplay, BTW.] In subsequent viewings it's not so distracting. I think Pinter was trying to create an effect similar to the metafictional techniques Fowles uses in the novel. I presume you've been to Lyme Regis, where it's set. Fowles' house is just outside the town, half-way up the hill. I've recently watched the newly restored Far From The Madding Crowd, which is also set in Dorset (and surrounding counties). Great film. And it's fun recognising many of the locales they used.
  11. Thanks for sharing the photos.
  12. It just came on - late.
  13. Yes, I agree with you. But, on the other hand, you could say that humankind is quite exceptional for the way its consciousness and scientific knowledge has developed to the point where our understanding of the cosmos permits us to look out into deep space, grasp what is there, and measure its awesome dimensions so accurately.
  14. Right. A different way of looking at it, but you're correct.
  15. Correction. It's not "400 million years ago" (a measure of time), but 400 million light years away (a measure of distance - how far light would travel through space in 400 million years).
  16. Every 2 minutes? Well, I just clicked on your link and they tell me that George Burley has just been announced as our new coach!
  17. No live commentary on the internet. No one answering the telephone at Saints TV. No one answering the phone at Saints FC main reception.
  18. Two fat ladies are 88. 22 is ducks
  19. A total disaster, given the situation we're in. Quite unbelievable.
  20. Let's go, Saints! Three points today.
  21. The mind boggles!
  22. Interesting, but it still doesn't sound correct to me!
  23. more simple = simpler simple (regular) - simpler (comparative) - simplest (superlative) HTH
  24. Don't know about him, but - I agree - he really looks like the Tony Hendra I was writing about.
