A while back our guy David Blaine was in a glass box over the Thames. There was a guy out there beating a drum to annoy him. I really wanted someone in the vicinity to bust that guys drum.
Too late on that request , but have a good time on vacation anyhow.
Nanterre? Poor John, I wonder what terrible convergence of circumstances could led an honest man in this Islamo-Communist slush hole.
Yet thou shall not despair, brave Sir John, for you will always find a haven in the dissident's dacha.
Your entry will be held for review before publication and may be rejected. Understand that I moderate as time permits, so publication will be delayed for a random thus unpredictable amount of time: between seconds to hours—or even days at worst.
Persona
An email address is required, but will not be published.
You cannot subscribe to notifications of follow-up comments.
You cannot set your own avatar, name and location: generic versions of these will be published with your comment.
You cannot contact members via private messages and access their public profiles.
Posting
Your comment cannot exceed 300 characters.
You can only write plain text. To create paragraphs, press Enter twice (while the textbox has the focus, otherwise pressing Enter will post the comment)
All HTML tags will be stripped upon posting your comment, as will anything that even remotely looks like a URL.
Hey now! The tags stripping & links munching little helpers (let's call them Muncher and Stripper and not mind how wrong that sounds) are ferocious. I bred them that way. If you receive a nasty validation error or half your comment vanishes, something has triggered them, and they answer with full aggression, not 'micro' ones. Try and reformulate your text to appease them (for instance, beware of copy/pasting from Word or another web page). Use the preview to confirm you pass by Muncher and Stripper unmolested (now that didn't sound any better)
Stripper (oh dear, oh dear) will put a ✂ in place of anything that looks like a link—and he has about half the subtlety of a bombing raid over Dresden. (but makes for it with twice the hostility) Do.use.the.preview, even if you don't think you've inserted a link, for he may disagree and he's not open to negotiation.
You cannot edit your entry once submitted. Use the preview before posting. Really.
