Biff, I love that Petula Clark song! I grew up with it because it was on an 8-track tape that my parents used to always play in the car – on a loop – on our trips to/from Vermont.
Legion, Roald Dahl books were among my faves as a kid. Still have mine. James and the Giant Peach, the 2 Charlie books, and Fantastic Mr. Fox, though I haven’t seen the movie.
Slopie, Re CLE, document retention, professional knowledge of in house compliance, I am experiencing some kind of massive karma cleansing right now. For every rotten thing I ever did in my life, I am being punished. Maybe I will come out of this a better person.
I have a lawyer (or something passing for one) loitering by me annoying me with some assaholic thing or other all the time.
Actually, it seems only 1.4% of the people who blogocide on brownstoner logoff and are never heard from again.
true slopefarm,
we have a high rate of retention here. or addiction.
Has anyone heard from EnglishKills again? lol
CGar,
Ha, love Willy Wonka. They made a movie version of Fantastic Mr. Fox!
Claymation with George Clooney. The kids love watching it
but it’s great to watch as an adult with a deadpan sort of dry humor.

In America, Subway is a place one goes to get a cold cut hero.
In England a subway is a passage that goes under a road.
Those Petula Clark lyrics seem self-evident. Why not just sing:
Don’t wash your face with Clorox.
And hey, don’t shave with a Ginsu knife…

Addendum #2:
Don’t sleep in the subway, darlin’.
Don’t stand in the pouring rain.
Yeah, Lech, I decided to drive that rather than do the whole airport thing, since net/net the time was more flying.
