^ official briefing from an unnamed BBC executive ... sounds like sour grapes / smear campaign to counter the (912,674 and counting) signatures on https://www.change.org/p/bbc-reinstate-jeremy-clarkson meanwhile, we should be careful for what we wish for, as this sarcastic comment from finalgear portends "You know what will succeed TopGear? A show called 'eco-hour' or some such nonsense, it will be about 'living together in harmony with mother Gaia' , it will be aired on a weekday afternoon because hippies don't work anyway, presented by a man hating transsexual, a black woman of Chinese descent, and a handicapped Orphan, it will feature segments about how green cars are not nearly green enough, ethnic peace bycicles, tofu, and public transportation." could almost have been penned by jezza

Happy birthday Larry

Brinksmanship? Storm in a teacup? And on that bombshell ...

AT LAST, SIR TERRY, WE MUST WALK TOGETHER. — Terry Pratchett (@terryandrob) March 12, 2015 Terry took Death’s arm and followed him through the doors and on to the black desert under the endless night. — Terry Pratchett (@terryandrob) March 12, 2015 The End. — Terry Pratchett (@terryandrob) March 12, 2015 http://time.com/3742565/terry-pratchetts-last-tweet-twitter/

Crap indeed. I'd like to think at least he got to find out if Death really does use ALL CAPS. Time to reread the entire discworld saga.

Happy Birthday Fitz. Is there a Steam Achievement for level 30?
