Robin, bios are hard. Also, picking pictures is hard. Also, I'm not a spanish captioner or Rioja. Can my bio just be: Yay, me! I have the internet at home!

That really has a lot of appeal at the moment.
I need to take a shower and sleep. Bleh. Life is so, like, demanding and stuff.
OK this is worth a "heh". Maybe two.

Somewhere during the selection process - when Royal Academicians choose from among nearly 10,000 works submitted for inclusion by members of the public - the head and the base were separated. And it emerged yesterday that the selectors had judged each on its merits. They admired the plinth enormously but rejected the head.
What's the term for a god who created the universe and then becomes an absentee father?
