# i use something that is strong, gives me confidence, and has wings...
...an owl.

/dawn french.

i saw sandi t on the big read last night. despite featuring two of my favourite books, 'the hitch-hiker's guide to the galaxy' and 'the colour of magic', it was a fucking awful programme.

# That's because Sandi was on it
and she makes me want to go on a killing spree every time she speaks.

# she's brilliant on the news quiz
but the big read just gets two people to make unconvincing arguments why one book is 'better' than the other...

# there was a thing on not long ago
where a panel read 5 books and argued them down to one through a series of "knockout" rounds. (Argued, not physical knockouts... which might've been better... ANYway)

I remember they did a "comedy books" one where PG Woodehouse was knocked out early for being "a bit posh". I should stop using so many "quote marks" but really, for "fuck's" sake..!?
