in 'The Way' by Divine Inspiration? Radio One play it all the time, far more than any other song of a similar vintage. Is there some reason why this particular song gets such a regular airing - to the...
Greetings all you experts out there. When I try and spellcheck an e-mail on my Windows 98 e-mail, I get a box telling me that there is a problem with Spellcheck. Fine, but it doesn't tell me what the...
Let me stake my claim from the start - as a music writer, I am aware that tastes vary between ages, and rap music is not aimed at 49 year old white men specifically, but, that said ....The Streets'...
The chairman of Ryan Air wants to do away with check-in desks and baggae handling, to reduce costs. Fine so far, but he advises people to buy their holiday clothes at their destination ... so how do...
Various aspects of modern film and TV pass me by completely. The 'talent' of Michael Barrymore, the 'humour' of Bo Selecta!, the 'acting' of Hugh Grant, the 'wonderfulness' of 'Lost In Translation',...
i really love the Rodney Crowell song 'Fate's Right Hand', but some of the Americanisms leave me baffled. Could you please explain the meaning of the following - 'Bill Blass combo', 'D.K.N.Y.', 'Ken...
This is really sad I know. In the latest Virgin text ad. with Christina Aguilera bouncing on the chair, the guy who sees her phones the media, but the ad. is for TEXTING - what's all that about?
I try not to get wound up by ads., but the new Renault, with the car as a 'dog' makes me violent! It's the bit where the guy pats his lap to get the car to 'come' to him, and the rear wiper acting as...
I'm thinking of changing my ISP and phone provider. I'd like one that can give me broadband / cheap phone calls / cable options, and is reliable. Andy advice gratefully received.
I am a BT Broadband user. Over the last few months, when I log on, my connection crashes after about three minutes without warning. I log on again, and it stays connected for the rest of my session....
This is really sad, but it bugs me. On morgan Freeman's voiceover describing his friend Andy's exit from the prison, his maths is way off. He says Andy crawled through 'half a mile of ?%*&', but then...
I listen to a reasonable amount of radio, watch a large amount of TV, and read a massive amount of music press. So, correct me if I'm wrong, but has Gary Glitter become a complete non-person since his...
An EastEnders query. If, as I am advised, Sharron Watts was adopted by Den and Angie, and is therefore no blood relation to Dennis, and they only met as adults, why the who hah about them having a...
Am I alone in thinking that the treatment of the indiginous wildlife in 'i'm A Celebrity ...' amounts to cruelty to animals? Forcing wildlife of separate species into containers in order to dump them...
It's very early days yet, but the Hutton Report appears to lay most of the blame for the arms info. fiasco firmly at the door of the BBC. As it is 'our' BBC, as they never tire of telling us, can we...
I have an Epson 7670 printer which i use to produce sleeves for my home-made CD's. Lately it's decided to enforce its own artistic ideas on me. I ask it tp print a red background, and it produces a...
I've just watched 'The Runaway Jury' which i really enjoyed. One question, why was the protagnoist changed from a tobacco company to an arms company - surely neither are high in the list of America's...
Was it fantastic or what! The moment when Dawn walked back into the office - I was busy concentrating on the conversation, and saw her about the time Tim did - it was an amazing moment in television....
I watched an episode of 'One Foot In The Grave' today. Looking at the cast list, I noticed that the meter man was played by one Clive Mantle, and Mrs Warbouys, the regular neighbour, was played by...
