You're not making as much sense as you usually do, LMoG.

You're not making as much sense as you usually do, LMoG.

Well, the words aren't meant to make much sense. All about a big bonnet, apparently.
But the point is to sing along with the divine Ms Fowlis...

Set 'em up, Joe. Whatever you're having, and three fingers of Old Pulteney for me.

Jiggin' in the back room. you say?
Well, I never cared much for dancing, but I'll have a look.

I dunno. That's not too dissimilar to what Athena and I were doing this evening... Well, not quite as energetic... Swing, Lindy Hop, Charleston. Even some Rock 'n' Roll... We're quite versatile.

It's thirsty work, though, so I'll have a pint of IPA if you're asking.

[Lord Muck oGentry]

Set 'em up, Joe. Ardbeg for me. Keep the cork.
And whatever you're having yourself.

Look at this:

I'm a broad-minded man. Live and let live, and so forth. But ... I say we take off and nuke it from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

[Alan H]

I think you're right there, LMoG. I think I could come up with a few other reasons for the nukes as well...

[Lord Muck oGentry]

I take your point, Alan. But some things are just too obdurately obdurate to joke about.
Like Bigly Genuine Single Malt Deliverance County Scotch Whiskey. Coming soon.

Bugger it! I'm going to get ratarsed. What're you having?

[Alan H]

A double Lemsip for me... <cough>, <splutter>..

[Lord Muck oGentry]

Set 'em up, Joe! Four fingers of Redbreast for me, and whatever you are having.

Anyway, I am hearing this story:

Donald Trump, Boris Johnson, Angela Merkel, Pope Francis and a ten-year-old schoolboy are on a plane, that is going down. There are only four parachutes.
Trump declares, "I'm the smartest person in the U.S.A., the country needs me." He grabs one and jumps.
Johnson declares, "Britain can't survive Brexit without me," as he grabs one and jumps.
The Pope declares, "More than a billion Catholics needs me," as he grabs one and jumps.
Merkel looks at the boy and says, "You take the last one, you have a whole life ahead of you."
The boy replies, "It's OK, there's two parachutes left, the smartest man in the U.S.A. took my backpack."
