The loonies were out last night.

There was a guy on the tram going radge at the conductor.

Then I saw Evie who was off to the Croft to see what was going on there because apparently there had been some hoo-hah. They’ve had a problem with vandalism round there.

Later on, someone was trying to turn their car outside the police station but the other cars were honking and trying to get past and going crazy. So much anger.

On my way home, I heard or saw at least two different screamers / howlers. I don’t know what their problem was.

All of which begged the question: “Is it a full moon?”

Well, I just looked at the calendar and we’re nowhere near. We’re between the new moon and the half moon. Full moon isn’t until the 26th.

Are lunatics without the moon just tics?

Stay sane! Come to the quiz!

Two quick question

What’s the fastest a ginger person has ever run a hundred metres? Do they keep records like this? Is it racist to do so?...

What’s the fastest a ginger person has ever run a hundred metres? Do they keep records like this? Is it racist to do so?

Another unresolved question: how do they make no-alcohol b**r? Do they make the b**r normally and then take the alcohol out? Or do they make it in the first place without alcohol?

And, as Diana Ross once asked “Why do fools fall in love?”
There definitely are more questions than answers, eh?

I never get involved in political online debates these days. Life is too short to spend it composing coherent sentences that will be largely ignored.

But I still read through the comments on some debates. A recent one featured commenters claiming that young people (and people in general) are more “politically engaged” since the referenda (2014 and 2016).

I don’t think that’s right. I live with a young person who (as I discovered yesterday) can’t name the Prime Minister. I feel like I never hear people talking about politics in the pub these days.
Am I wrong? Am I missing the pol-chat? Let me know.

Meanwhile, the quiz is coming for you, tonight.

I was a bit ill this weekend and my limbs were heavy when I woke this morning, which led to some internal misery regarding age.

But then I saw an audience-filmed video of Jon Anderson (formerly of Yes) singing live at the age of 81, whilst looking great and sounding incredible.

And then you realise, there’s plenty in the tank. We can go all the way. It’s OK.
