Lots of discussion in 2007 about how they were done.

Here's one:

Neighbours had us over for dinner - oysters they had picked off the
beach, done on a barbecue outside, though we ate them inside.
I fortunately bit gently, because mine had a pearl in it - about the
size of my baby fingernail.  I gave it to the neighbours, as they had
done all the work.  They have gathered oysters for years and this
is their first pearl.

That was last night, and then tonight, the clouds have cleared enough
that we'll be able to see the lunar eclipse through the skylight over
our bed, and not on the NASA website as we had planned.

Lovely description. Happy moon watching.

I am watching it out of our study window. Nearly half way.

President Barack Obama is visiting a Glasgow hospital ......

He enters a ward full of patients with no obvious sign of injury or illness,

He greets one.

The patient replies:

Fair fa your honest sonsie face,
Great chieftain o the puddin race,
Aboon them a ye take yer place,
Painch, tripe or thairm,
As langs my airm.

Obama is confused, so he just grins and moves on to the next patient.

The next patient responds:

Some hae meat an canna eat,
And some wad eat that want it,
But we hae meat an we can eat,
So let the Lord be thankit.

Even more confused, and his grin now rictus-like, the President moves onto
the next patient, who immediately begins to chant:

Wee sleekit, cowerin, timorous beasty,
O the panic in thy breasty,
Thou needna start awa sae hastie,
Wi bickering brattle

Now seriously troubled, Obama turns to the accompanying doctor and asks,
'Is this a psychiatric ward?'


'No,' replies the doctor, 'this is the serious Burns unit.'

[Lesley Cox]

Oh Brian, that is wonderful. Laughed aloud here too. But isn't Obama's smile alays rictus-like?
