Has to be one of the best things I've ever heard.
Thanks for that Loki.

Had seen the quotes from that in the newspaper but it was amusing. The final line is the best bit.

Wow, what an orator! I'm not very knowledgeable of politics whether recent or old, but that was fantastic.

Happy because I have managed to knock down some of that writer's block and take my story in a new direction. Hurrah!

You say she can enjoy Ayn Rand like its a bonus nico...

For me, sure we squandered a chance to chin the champions but he team is really staarting to gel.
Either boroni to hit form, Carroll to get a change or a goalscorer in and top 4 suddenly looks possible!

And just got an email from amazon saying that FoD, SW and OST have been shipped and will be delivered soon, only problem here is, I'm 13,000 miles away from the delivery address. 3 weeks time though, I'll have plenty of malaazan goodness

Also, if you're any good at manual labour, gothos, I'm sure you'll feel right at home...

Watching my kids learn some Brazilian jiu-jitsu. I like the idea of it, because the whole premise is that your opponent is bigger and stronger than you, so you compensate with technique. But the result is a focus on submission holds, which I'm not sure I want my kids learning right now. Oh well.

OK, I think I got it, but just in case, can you say the whole thing over again? I wasn't really listening.

Child assassins need all the techniques they can get, but yah, submission isn't a high priority skill set.

South Norwood, for now (SE25), you?

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

I'm in Chigwell, by the M11 on the map (IG7). There's getting to be a small collection of us in these parts; potential for a Londoners' Mini Malazan Meet-up, perhaps?
