Secondly, if there is an omnipotent deity, I like His style of sending a "sign" that causes US$20,000-worth of damage to a building where people come to worship Him. Nice touch.
    Oh, and will someone shoot the BBC picture caption writer for writing a pun like that?

    Today, I shall mostly be waiting. Patiently, but expectantly.

    Disturbing development of the day was receiving a spam that told me I’d "look good with a new electric wheelchair". Please, with a little luck, I intend to achieve a whole list of things before I need one of those.

Bring your friends, bring your love, bring your support, but most of all PICK UP THE PHONE AND RESERVE YOUR PLACE NOW BEFORE IT GETS SOLD OUT!!!

    At Last! After six years at the fringe collaborating on numerous successful projects, Lizzie Roper finally brings us what we’ve all been waiting for,
    her first one woman show!

    "She’s funnier than me!" Scott Capurro.

    Self-satisfaction without touching yourself! Lizzie Roper takes you on a hilarious journey through personal confusion. How do we get from being all things to everyone, to the person that satisfies our-self?

    A SHOW ABOUT GETTING OLDER
    AND GROWING YOUNGER
