Every xylophone can initiate this excellent music - enjoy new tintinnabulations!

They look at you so innocently when they come into the house. I've never had one in the bed, OK?

In "MONSTER PORN: Amazon Cracks Down On America’s Latest Sex Fantasy."

I assume people mainly buy this stuff as a joke. But either way, who cares - if they want it, why not?

In "London 1927 in colour."

Remarkable how little the look of most of these streets has changed: almost nothing seems to have been lost, but many huge new buildings have been added. The vehicles are all different, of course. And everyone wore hats.

No ideas, just saying hello. Um, 'hello'!

In "I'm calling out homunculus"

Homunculus is, somewhat paradoxically, a great man.

In "Portal Tetris"

Heh. Can't help feeling there must be a way to make it work, though. What if you had one permanently fixed square?

In "London or Otherwise UK Meetup!"

Alas, can't do Thursday (daughter's birthday). See you next time?

No suggestions, but I am around.

In "The Gifts of the Magi"

I'm against it, personally. I think the clock should hold still, but governments should promote different working hours in the summer/winter.

Farmers can get up when they choose, can't they?)

In "The greatest science-fiction story ever written"
