Evidently, you can block sinks on Facebook, Twitter and other social networking sites.

And the main front page story is about a flock of poltergeists who tinker with commercial jingles....and also that birth signs are actually loaded calories, Gemini having the highest calorific value of all the birth signs with a whopping 756.

Oh dear! I'm a gemini - no one better bite me then!

And if you go on a diet you will still be plied with calories, thanks to the stars and planets.

News just in that Richard Dawkins is, in fact, god.

Dan Brown can prove it.

I am Mehetibel the main dish of the day. I am Codswallander, a Swedish detective with a fishtail mutation of the left hand.

Well, Codswallander, here's something for you to solve. How many buttons?

So then... What would be the caloric value of a lion?

It depends, Francine. Leo comes in as 500 calories during its 'reign' in July/August and then peters out to around 337. Actual lions vary according to their diet. Are you considering eating a whole one or a particular section?

Mmmm... I love your choice of words... You have me laughing too... I AM the lion - a vegan one. : )

There is a vegan bit on a lion, it's hidden under the mane (in the males) between its gas and electricity supply pipes; and it looks like a friendship bracelet round the left front poor of the females and tastes like donuts.

Donuts aren't too calorific - if you only eat the middle of the ring ones.

Aren't they what they call "empty calories?"

That would be 0 calories. I think that posh spice and other air heads live on them. It's good to know that you can diet and still pig out though - isn't it?

Pigs are filled with insubordinate malice, waxing off their wing stubs every day just so they fit in, not realising that this action seals their terrible fate. And thus it is with celebrities, there's a memory snugged in every hair follicle (they're the brain's external hard-drives) and every pluck and epilation wipes out a recollection that had shored-up the respective personality. More pluck, less person....

Yeah, I used to pluck my eyebrows -that could explain a lot!

It's the men who go bald who lose most!

Yes, I expect it was all the bald men who liked my eyebrows the most! Now they are missing out! (( = sideways eyebrows! I must be lying down!

The follicles beneath eyebrows are the repository of correct grammatical usage and proper punctuation. A certain thread on this very site has failed to put its collective finger on this oh-so-obvious factor. As you well know, the Elizabethans used to pluck their eyebrows clean away and also pluck their hairline to increase the size of the forehead. Grammar and punctuation was all over the place -- witness Shakespeare's manuscripts!

Anyway, as men become bald they lose all sense of occasion.

Sideways eyebrows are a thing of beauty.

Funny, I never put Shakespeare down as an eyebrow plucker - maybe he was an eyebrow plucker's son?

Yes, he was an Eyebrow-Plucker's Son but also an eyebrow plucker himself -- -- he drew them back in with his quill in the quiet moments but, hint hint, he didn't suffer male pattern baldness and he was monobrowed. True!

I wanna know what happened to my Libran calories?

Your Libran calories were actually redeployed to feed Sarah Palin on her huntin' shootin' fishin' & family trip publicity bonanza. Her people said to thank your people.
