Oh how I loved my cassingle collection. But Ioved my tapes recorded from the radio the best.

You know what confuses me? People who can't get over her upbringing and constantly list artists they don't think she's as good as. As if those artists don't have a marketing/management team behind them. Her songs have been online for a long time, that's how her fan base grew. A lot of people like her music, a lot of…

This is disgusting. I can't believe they haven't taken them down yet. I'll never be clicking on another Anna North story again.

Take down the photos of this woman's body. Now. How dare you?

Damn, sorry.

Burn!

You are now my favourite.

FYI: the man that gave Jake wasn't some old weirdo, he's Dieter Kosslick, the Director of the Berlin International Film Festival. [www.berlinale.de]

I'm from New Zealand, where we do indeed use regular English not US-English. Though, incidentally, I am actually living in the UK at the moment so don't even get me started on people refusing to use the metric system - drives me crazy! 'Pounds' and 'inches' don't even exist back home...

I do try. But aren't both ways of using the apostrophe on a word-that-ends-in S-but-isn't-plural actually correct? I remember asking my Mum as a kid, regarding my brother's name, and she told me both James' and James's were correct, but the former is preferable as it is less awkward. Are you arguing with my mother?

Woah, MIA really peed in your cornflakes!

I read that MIA is having issues getting her visa to live in the US, due to things she's said publicly regarding the Tamil Tigers. She can get temporary ones to work and visit (e.g. for the super bowl) but not to reside permanently yet.

Have tears in my eyes laughing at that second one! That could have been me at that age, I was insanely sensitive to being laughed at.

Hurrah!

You're 30 years older than your mother?

Those people just can't see past her boobs (fair enough, I suppose) to take any notice of her face. She definitely has the better hair, though!

Yes! So similar it's almost weird, like siblings.

If you want to have a respectful discussion I'm up for it, that's why I comment on this site. But since you're just spoiling for an argument with comments/accusations such as "we automatically pretend" and "see what you did there", then I'm just not interested. Feel like I'm sparring with a teenager.

It's pretty quick actually, I did the same thing last week, and then only waited two or three days before I got my sign-up email. Now I just have to actually start it! Haven't had time yet, but might do it now...

She emphasised it because he yelled at her and called her racist. I thought that part of the story was obvious - she didn't bring it up, he did. She says he looked scary because he had his hood up and was wearing sunglasses late at night - this is indeed typical of an artist's rendering of a robber!
