I've never seen the Godfather films either. Or The Goonies. Or ET.

Goodies are good enough.

Thoth won’t get this.

Wah! Excluded from the other kids chat!

The Goodies was a TV show in the UK that I'm sure has been mentioned here before. All three of them had long careers in radio comedy well before this. A lot of the best comedy that reached TV had similar origins.

There's a different kids' chat?!?!

It is in the extra super secret exclusive forum. Not to be confused with the exclusive secret super extra forum.

Noes! I paid good Venturan walking money to join the super exclusive extra secret forum!

Unfortunately, your Walking Money ran away!

Noes! Puts a new meaning to having a run on the currency.

Words can change their meaning over time. For example, the word “awful” originally meant something that was worthy of awe. And that is what I meant when I said “thoth lad is awful!”

Oh, REALLY?

To think I was planning a different posting style. But if the ones I do now have that label, I guess I should just selflessly continue as I am.

I had to nip back out to the shops earlier on for some olive oil. Picked up an extra Easter Egg to give tomorrow. Quite a few folks around that aisle, but I didn't notice any discounts.

It's always the olive oil, never the castor.

I can't believe your castoring my issues back at me again!

Wow. As bad puns go, you have outdone yourself with that one. and I have seen a lot of bad ones!

Castor Oyl was Olive’s brother and the original star of the strip.

I'm just giving more of what Quis must have meant when he said "awful"

Don’t listen to what I say. I don’t.

One of my neighbours has a voice that projects a bit. I was reading in my garden when he came out into his with another member of the family for a "private chat". They knew I was there, but went on regardless. Despite managing to block out some of it, I couldn't not hear part of his conversation. At least I didn't hear any of the other side of the conversation. So the details remain none of my business as it should have been for all of it.

Perhaps your neighbor is a bit of an exhibitionist with regards to his private life.

You may be right. That was where the conversation was taking place in his mind, never mind who was nearby. I can only guess that the subject of the conversation is elsewhere. The subject is there at the moment. I guess he wasn't around a couple of hours ago, when I got a repeat performance. As I was in another part of my garden, I was sure to make enough noise so they would know I was there. Made no difference. And now I have more details that are none of my business.

Today's Legion World is brought to you by the word, "tact"

There's no business like show business
Like no business I know
Everything about it is appealing
Everything that traffic will allow
Nowhere could you get that happy feeling
When you are stealing that extra bow

There's no people like show people
They smile when they are low
Yesterday they told you, you would not go far
That night you open and there you are
Next day on your dressing room they've hung a star
Let's go on with the show!

The costumes, the scenery, the makeup, the props
The audience that lifts you when you're down
The headaches, the heartaches, the backaches, the flops
The sheriff who'll escort you out of town
The opening when your heart beats like a drum
The closing when the customers don't come

There's no business like show business
Like no business I know
You get word before the show has started
That your favorite uncle died at dawn
And top of that, your pa and ma have parted
You're broken-hearted, but you go on

There's no people like show people
They smile when they are low
Even with a turkey that you know has fold
You may be stranded out in the cold
But still you wouldn't change it for a sack of gold
Let's go on with the show, let's go on with the show

I wonder if the favourite uncle was involved in a duel at dawn.

I wonder if pa killed him, thus leading to his and ma's parting.
