Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away.
-- Philip K Dick
What happens when all the renewable energy runs out?
-- Victoria Ayling
English isn't much of a language for swearing. When I studied Ancient Greek I was delighted to discover a single word - Rhaphanidosthai - which translates roughly as "Be thou thrust up the fundament with a radish for adultery."

Robert M. Pirsig, author of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, 88, he was old. Ridiculously smart, but old.

Chris Cornell, grunge singer with Soundgarden and later Audioslave.
I was never a big Soundgarden fan but the work he did with Audioslave was awesome, it was Rage mk 2 with snarling sung vocals rather than rap. This is probably one of the better examples of the new direction they took.

I liked his explanation about what brought him to chemistry as much as the video itself - pieces o'nine

Peter Sallis is a great loss - a brilliant comedian. But cheer up, there's a rumour that they've signed William Hague to play Wallace.

He wasn't half as annoying as the rest of them.

Are you mad? '14 pints a day' Hague compared to Sallis? I'll be launching footwear at the telly inside 5 minutes.
Bodger was a decent bloke, I remember watching that when I came in from school with my younger brother. Hardly amazing art but funny.

BBC Children's TV demi-god Brian Cant, 83, Parkinson's Disease. His name was the only possible answer to the question "Brian May?"
Also, my friend and musical colleague Simon Cotterell, 47 (younger than me), massive heart attack in his sleep. I haz a sad.
