She donned a string bikini for the nonce ? 
Funny, she don't look under-age to me ...
(or does that use of the word "nonce" only apply here in the U of K?) |

If you are watching every episode of Dr Who ever made, in order, from the beginning, including listening to the audios or reading the books where a particular story no longer exists in the BBC Archives.
Up to "The Space Museum" if there's any fellow Doc-heads on here (hate the term "Whovian") |

| I'm from Portland, have lived in San Francisco and Sacramento, and get up to Seattle once in awhile. Truth is, it's no better or worse here than anywhere else. It may be more diverse/open-minded here, but that just means that the various cliques are that much more fragmented and rigidly defined. Po... |

| Rick Wright’s contribution to the Floyd sound, particularly in the early days, is often overlooked. Apart from Barrett, his was the main instrument on “Piper At The Gates Of Dawn” and he wrote some lovely songs, my fave being “Remember A Day”. Whenever I hear him singing “Why can’t we play today”I g... |

From watching the Olympics, I can honestly say I much prefer both the US and Russian to the dirge that accompanied Team GB's otherwise heartening performance.
Can't comment on the Canadian anthem I'm afraid as they didn't play it  |

| I'm chatty and eccentric and I find that to be a good thing. I feel more British than Canadian, I speak with a Cockney accent, and I'm also obsessed with London and which were the London Routemasters. You can't get any more eccentric than that. 8) For those of you who don't know what a Routemaster ... |

| I have always thought of myself as eccentric, decades before I ever heard of AS. As someone said here, I would have to go out of my way to not be (and I'm sure I could not sustain normalcy). I guess this is a product of my passion for my interests and the fact that not too many folks around me thin... |
