Set up a spreadsheet to pick a random Simpsons episode from seasons 2-10 and the first one was S09E12 "All Singing, All Dancing" - a clip show of some of the musical numbers. Not a great start 😂.

It did at least include "See My Vest", "The Monorail Song" and "We Do (The Stonecutters' Song). 4/10.

Had a similar late run, and just pipped you. Good work though, felt like it was going to be a low week for a while. Good to see the pears in there too.

Re-do the prequels with an inebriated Ray Winstone instead of Jar Jar. The character's name is also Ray Winstone.

The Sexy Beast star has said he was under the influence when he auditioned – unsuccessfully – for Attack of the Clones. George Lucas really missed a trick

I'm so pissed off with my job right now that I'm actually looking forward to following through on my stupid decision to cycle from Birmingham to Lowestoft over the next three days.

Like, I don't wanna get into eugenics obvs, but if they identified a gene that makes you think it's ok to have a full blown conversation at a gig during the songs and it could be removed without negative impact I would be 100% behind that.

The fox needs access to the hen coop ASAP, to prevent disaster

At the conference in Dubai, Ellison began with a joke about Musk before warning the audience that artificial super-intelligence was coming sooner than expected.
What, Blair asked him, should governments be doing about it? "The first thing a country needs to do is unify all of their data so that it can be consumed and used by the Al model, Ellison responded.
Ellison was also specific about which data needed unifying - and he had an example in mind: "The NHS in the UK has an incredible amount of population data," he
declared, but it was too "fragmented" at present. Below him, the former prime minister nodded, clutching his Tony Blair Institute (TBI) notebook.
