    Probably surplus to the other 57, or so, turntables he has.

    Some people collect gold bullion, others collect turntables! Some have increased in value! A great way to keep your secret fortune hidden from the government.

    At the very least, there are quite a few good words there, worthy of Three Words Daily

    Makes me wonder if any government has ever released LP's of "how to do your tax return" if they did, I think said turntables could also then be a deduction.

    Debenhams may be interested. A bit of diversification in their fragrances dept. may be just the thing to keep them open. You'll need to come up with a good product name though, like 'Amnesia' or 'Phut n'adore'. Avoid names that give away its origin, like 'Eau de Wrexham Rectum' - just not classy enough.

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Si, certamente. Una bellissima scorreggiata, veramente puzzolente, come questo:

    Is it unisex?

    I'd have some in a heartbeat, but unfortunately I'm not keen on cabbage. Anita turns fifty in a few weeks and I'd like to get her something special so if you could hold off on the old cruciferous for a couple of days and do me a bespoke batch I'd definitely be interested.

    Speaking of batches of noxious gas I notice I've just passed the 1900 mark - I'm aiming for 2,019 posts before 2019 arrives. Two dumps per day ought to do it.
