Threadjacking!

9. I know from (Lev.11:6-8) that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me unclean, but may I still play football if I wear gloves?

This is only relevant for goalkeepers.

If you are without sin, get casting!

Masterful! Post of the week, as far as I'm concerned.

Aye, one of the better early season episodes of West Wing.  The look on the woman's face when Bartlett laid into her with this lot was priceless!

Greatest thing ever! Flying the Eagle (from Space 1999) on my route to work was surprisingly tricky!

Bravo sir.

Brilliant, DDD - that has to get my vote for Image of the Year!

What do any of you make of that Luiz Elizondo chap?

Brilliant and articulate bullshitter, or harbinger of a potential change to life as we know it?

Luis Elizondo: “Earth Is A Zoo Ruled By Aliens”

Whilst anything is possible, this guy seems to me to be yet another form of statist (exostatist?) who thinks we should all turn over our freedoms and rights not just to Earthly "authorities" but to extraterrestrial ones as well. Someone whose fantasies I might enjoy (as with Corey Goode) but not someone I'd put faith in.

Rationally, yeah.

I watched this interview with him recently - he comes across as genuine, if a bit too slick;

Hard to completely dismiss him as a loon based on his former employment though.

Anyway, it's a topic that piqued my interest, based on the relatively large amount of coverage it's received in recent years.
