I'm not such a fan of the totally bald look, but I love a pixie cut, and that's the obvious next stage when she starts growing it again. *waits expectantly*
Australopithecus... I used to think you were a decent chap, but now... I... I just...
Anyway, favourite cheese? That's really tough, actually. I do like a strong Stilton or a ripe Brie, but equally I love a mild goat's cheese... Most cheeses have their place. (And no, Austra that place is not...
My wife is Mexican and I'm really looking forward to going to Mexico for the ninth time this Christmas. Your country is full of lovely people, amazing scenery and places of architectural and historic interest.

Indeed. The scene where Stark breaks in and slowly figures out what's going on was a highlight of the film for me, and Ben Kingsley was obviously having loads of fun.

Having read the article, it seems that it's following the usual woo-monger pattern of taking a real change in scientific understanding (in this case epigenetics) and extrapolating wildly...
Hoodies are fine but they don't go well with more formal overcoats. I was looking for a nice jumper the other day in TK Maxx and all I could find were horrid skinny-fit monstrosities and bloody hoodies. I DIDN'T WANT A HOODY! I DIDN'T WANT SKINNY FIT! I JUST WANTED SOMETHING WARM TO WEAR UNDER...
I got a Kindle for Christmas that has caused me to start reading more than I had been. I've decided to have one fiction and one non-fiction book on the go at any one time.
After watching and enjoying the Game of Thrones TV show I deccided to start reading George R R Martin's A Song of ice and...
