Is there an Olympic category for colds? I'm a shoe-in.

Atheists please note: the existence of tea is clear evidence of divine intervention.

Speaking of the Olympics, we watched some of Clash of the Titans last night. It largely comprises claymation and Harry Hamlin saying "Invisible!" and looking dumber than peat.

I was up half the night, but luckily had Peanutbutter and Jeremy's Best Book Ever to keep me company. (Thanks Ed and Sonja!)

Theists, tea-ists, Uma, Oprah...

Bless you. *breaks out the canned chipotles in adobo sauce*

A small start - made some black tea with ginger and a bit of cinnamon stick. Much relief. Yay Ace!

Ah, Clash of the Titans. I must've watched that fifty times when I was a kid; that, and Jason and the Argonauts, which is also pretty special. Then of course there're the Harryhausen Sinbad films, notable not least for the face that Patrick Troughton is in one (Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger, also featuring Jane Seymour), and Tom Baker is in another (The Golden Voyage of Sinbad). Caroline Munro is in the Tom Baker one too - perhaps the start of the plan to have her in a Who movie?

Curiously enough, me too! It was on HBO when we were stuck in the Bethesda Marriot in 1982, along with Heaven Can Wait. (By coincidence, Jon and I were married in the same hotel.) I have retained little bits of it, notably all the bums, and the dodgy seagull effect at the start. Burgess Meredith should get 100000 Oscars for quality in the face of jism.

Unless one cannot find the tea one actually wants. Unless that's just god/goddess/etc playing silly buggers. Again.
