Isn’t it amusing that the first prosecution for breaking the English smoking ban would be in a pub called the Happy Scots Bar?
Now, that’s just setting a challenge for a Scot to find a Happy English Bar in Scotland and do the same…although the quest might be similar to finding a needle in a haystack, to be honest!
I’m liking these rules.. isn’t it strange how most of them relate to the frustrations technology causes us…
Particularly liking Sturgeon’s Revelation!!
I never knew that there was such a thing…blawgs were the most unusual combination of ‘blogging’ with other words that I’d come across.
Now, I discover splogging: setting up spam blogs and filling them with AdSense ads. I don’t quite get the point…methinks I need to read this article in more depth when I can actually concentrate!
Personally, I just quite like the term!
Is it just me, or is it offensive that this judge thinks we just “turn the pages” of books?
And also, I personally know people who’ve had to have operations on their hands to repair damage caused by their work as a librarian. I’ve felt the aching pains in my wrists and thumbs after spending hours photocopying old cases for users…the thumbs take the strain as you flip the books to photocopy them…I’d say it’s pretty clear that librarians CAN injure themselves by “turning the pages of a book”.
