OT - Windows Spider Game 
  I know it is sad, but working with just two suits, what is the lowest number of moves needed to get all the cards out? So far I have managed 112, but nothing lower. Anyone beat that? Liz

Jo Caulfield 
  My memory of Jo Caulfield's previous series were that they were not quite as bad as that Arthur Strong thing. Tonight's was very good, IMO, with several laugh out loud moments. Was I wrong all this time? Or has the generally disappointing nature of 6:30 Tues-Thurs in recent years softened me up?... more »

Grace Archer : The Firebrand

Google headings 
  Surely Google are being a bit OTT with their Sesame Street theme aren't they? All other occasions only get one day but this one is going on forever it seems. All for a telly prog that was all but unknown in Britain. At least the German page is on the money today - [link] Rosjh

OT: Going out of fashion 
  In the Guardian article about humour which Badriya refers to in her posting of yesterday, David Mitchell uses the phrase: "we hunt for funny angles like they're going out of fashion."

OT I disagree with what you say, but will defend to the death..etc 
  I can't recall whether we've discussed humour that is or is not offensive and should it be criticised or censored. We might have discussed Jonathan Woss? OAIAM. David Mitchell writes this week [link] And some of the responses are interesting. I am undecided. I do... more »
