I did enjoy Defying Gravity. But yes, normally I don't like prequels.

I would not enjoy defying gravity. I don't want to float off the coastline and drown in the ocean.
(Sorry, I couldn't resist.)
Still "Fickles" to my friends.

There have been a few books that I've disliked enough to just give up on.

There have been many books like that for me as well. I would not enjoy defying gravity. I don't want to float off the coastline and drown in the ocean.
(Sorry, I couldn't resist.) ah, but you would still float over the ocean! Higher, and higher, and into outer space...

I don’t mind people asking for spare change and I sometimes give some. However the ones who just shake a cup at me annoy me. I never give them any change.

Please refer to the film review of Scanners on Kappa's thread for more information on that subject.

… and we'd just finished cleaning up the first mess. So, that's another fine mess you've got us into*!
*channelling recent Laurel and Hardy movie.

The documentary is very good. The book it is based on is also very good.

I think we talked about the documentary in previous posts. I'm not sure if that was deja vu I experienced, as that would mean checking to see how Brexit went today.

That's exactly what it is. We had a vote to drop Breakfast entirely and embrace our traditions by having Tiffin instead. Some people are just having difficulty giving up their cornflakes. Legion World: Keeping an eye on events from orbit. Because you wouldn't want to be down there.

Whenever life gets you down, Mrs. Brown, And things seem hard or tough, And people are stupid, obnoxious or daft,
And you feel that you've had quite eno-o-o-o-o-ough, Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving And revolving at 900 miles an hour. It's orbiting at 19 miles a second, so it's reckoned, The sun that is the source of all our power. Now the sun, and you and me, and all the stars that we can see, Are moving at a million miles a day, In the outer spiral arm, at 40,000 miles an hour, Of a galaxy we call the Milky Way. Our galaxy itself contains a hundred billion stars; It's a hundred thousand light-years side to side; It bulges in the middle sixteen thousand light-years thick, But out by us it's just three thousand light-years wide. We're thirty thousand light-years from Galactic Central Point, We go 'round every two hundred million years; And our galaxy itself is one of millions of billions In this amazing and expanding universe. (waltz) Our universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding, In all of the directions it can whiz; As fast as it can go, at the speed of light, you know, Twelve million miles a minute and that's the fastest speed there is. So remember, when you're feeling very small and insecure, How amazingly unlikely is your birth; And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere out in space, 'Cause there's bugger all down here on Earth!
