Also, I just noticed when reading this article to my colleagues, that she says next time she is going to sit her sweaty body down in a chair. Ugh.

That's terrible, you should avoid eating at any restaurants just in case.

I don't think you will understand this, but there is such thing as proper decorum. People who are sweaty and smelly break it. I am not sure if I would point it out to someone, but mainly because I am too polite to do so - but would give disapproving looks.

I.e., you'd point it out passive-aggressively.

The main thing I didn't like about the article is that she cared so much about what a Marti clone thought.

This is probably not going to interest too many people here (I miss Seedee and Sheilbh!) but a Polish prelate of the Vatican Congregation of the Doctrine of Faith (the Catholic Church's Holy Inquisition, essentially), and a prominent Vatican theologian and philosopher who wrote a hugely commented on article earlier this week attacking the Polish church for its hate speech and homophobia... has just come out. I look forward to this issue developing and what the Pope's reaction will be - I find it hugely interesting and inspiring, even though I consider myself an ex-Catholic.

Something for 11B4V perhaps,

Look what turned up outside my house this afternoon?

My kid brother just picked it up from Southampton docks and stopped by on the way home.

Yeah, I can see his reasoning in that you might as well have something distinctive as compared to a lot of today's bland wedges.

Though it cost him a fair bit to ship from Washington state to England.  :bowler:

No doubt on the shipping. I would imagine not too many of those over there. There should be clubs though.
