A Rusty was wand'ring around
For doGs, looking in every pound
When he happened to find,
Where a priest had spilled wine,
A Holy Ghost dead on the ground!

The Holy Ghost is just a spook
  I'd never thought I'd meet,
But when I saw she had that shape
  I looked beneath the sheet!

"What are you doing, you silly man,
  that's not for you to see!
There's room for more than one in here
  but it's limited to three!"

I turned away so saddened by
  the lady I never saw.
What the three of them were doing there,
  I shan't even tell my Pa!

Due to a thread by qo titled "What is science?" (link) wherein we had veered off into Top 10 Reasons for not Replying to the What is Science Thread, and he replied in part:
...
7. Science is way too close to Seance for comfort, at least for Ray Comfort. If Ray don't like it, qo don't like it.

6. If they'd spelled it Psyence, then maybe it would've stood a chance. But noooooo. Sigh!(ence)

"Teacup"

"... shallow and wide-mouthed -- how often those two attributes seem to go together -- teacup." -Christopher Hitchens, on Slate: How to make a decent cup of tea. Link

Full line: " Finally, a decent cylindrical mug will preserve the needful heat and flavor for longer than will a shallow and wide-mouthed—how often those attributes seem to go together—teacup."

I suppose when one has a blog, ...

... one really ought to have something to say, eh?

Okay.
