lovedGah.
Sophie Ellis-Bextor's album is *fabulous*, and I can see a lot of the songs becoming Sirius's own - see, Chiriko isn't the only one who gives songs to fandoms, I've been doing it for years - particularly "Sparkle" :
I'm only offering you love tonight...
I'm only offering you this for life...
I'm very very fond of this album. Even though I harbour unadulterated loathing for the woman herself.
I bought a book of one-liners the other day. And therefore I throw (a lot of) these out as possible .sig lines for anyone who'd like to use them :
Michael Caine can out-act any, well nearly any, telephone kiosk you care to mention. --Hugh Leonard

Rock journalism is people who can't write interviewing people who can't talk for people who can't read. --Frank Zappa (one of my favourite quotes, that.)
David Halberstam's book on the 1950s, called "The Fifties", is as inspired and clever as its title. --John Podhoretz
This book fills a much needed gap. --Moses Hadas
Although he tortures the English language, he has not yet succeeded in forcing it to reveal its meaning. --J.B.Morton
