Deshelve!

Just a thought...If I were a believer I'd still think that religion AND god are a bad idea anyway! Look at Pharmacy..If one medicine was found to have one or two bad, negative side effects, though beneficial in all other considerations, it is removed from the shelves!!

    It was GREAT thank you. Fully packed of (what seemed to be anyway) enthusiastic attendees. As a first in centuries and to my bewilderment at being caught unguarded, I got a bit drunk but didn't do a "Les Patterson" impersonation..Otherwise it was a very enjoyable evening all over..

    How wonderful for you! Congratulations! If I may ask, what do you mean by "As a first in centuries"?

    Last time I was schlass as Cary Grant puts it was ages ago..I usually drink little, not enough to get tipsy. Having said that I was far from being drunk, just a bit at the edge.

    Deshelve: Go tell them that in Mecca. I'm sure you'll be warmly accepted.

    Guest, you are a hoot! Is that Zionist humour? Not a patch on Jewish humour.

    TGIA, when did Cary grant use the word Schlass? I thought that was a French expression.

    You're right.
    The first time I heard it and thought it was very funny expression was in "North by Northwest", not subtitled but dubbed in French as it it's the habit with foreign films showing in France..Why were I thinking it was English? Maybe because I very rarely heard the French using it.

    This photo shows how Cary Grant was forcibly made schlass.

    Have you seen this article, TG?

    Cary Grant's a big hero of the Wu Ming collective. He plays a leading role in their novel "'54".

    Thanks for this Jemmy. I didn't know what Wu Ming are but I knew of Cary Grant's status as an icon of elegance and style..In this he's more like a legend in a par with that shady character the Duke of Windsor.
