![]() Some students will frown and start counting under their breath with a look of intense concentration on their faces. Walk into any classroom, and ask the students there how many tenses there are in the English language, and the result will always be the same. The meaning of the name is either means 'pure' or 'torture', both from Greek, depending on how you translate it.Īs for the drunk guy, he was carried away by a kind-hearted healthcare auxiliary who gave him a strong coffee and a complete change of blood. Fortunately for me, the drunk guy didn't stand a chance. By the time I found myself sitting at the bar.those odds were at two to one. But, over the years, we gradually moved closer.I moved from England to Malta, where my wife was born, reducing those odds to 401880 to one. ![]() The odds of my wife and I ever meeting were, therefore, a staggering 05288144222 to one. On the eleventh of November, 1990, there were, apparently, 05288144222 people in the world. The fact that we ever met each other at all is amazing. Today, we've been married for ten years, and we have what I like to think of as a perfect marriage. I smiled too, and the rest, as they say, is history. We both watched him collapse, and then looked up at each other, smiling in the slightly superior way that sober people do when watching drunken antics. At one point, this person leapt off his barstool, screamed"I'm wanna rock n’ roll all night!".and promptly fell over. We were both sitting at the bar, and there was an incredibly drunk person sitting between us. It was November the eleventh, 1990, at a Halloween disco party. I would go back to the night that I first met my wife. ![]() The obvious question is.where, or rather.when, would you go? In fact, it's rather commonplace, and our scientist is now trying to figure out a way to land on the sun without instantly turning into a pile of ash with black-rimmed glasses and a big beard.but that's another story, and one that doesn't concern us. And he succeeds, and builds a time machine out of old cereal boxes, a couple of toilet roll tubes and lots of sticky tape and staples. ![]() Now, the only thing faster than the speed of light is the speed of dark (because no matter how fast light travels, darkness is always there first), so our scientist turns off all the lights and gets to work. Let's imagine that his next thought is 'Golly gee! If I could travel faster than the speed of light, then I could travel to the sun and I would actually get there eight minutes ago!" So he runs off to find a way to travel faster than light. Let's imagine that, at some point in time, a very clever scientist in a long white coat, black-rimmed glasses and a huge scientific-looking beard happens to be looking up at the sun and thinking "wow! I'm looking at the sun now, but the sun is so far away that its light takes eight minutes to reach my eyes, which means that I'm actually seeing the sun as it was eight minutes ago.".

And it was very much HER style which I liked. It was a great mash-up of mid-century Chanel glamour and romantic 19th century Goth. You know whose look I loved? Elle Fannings! She wore a 1950s Chanel wedding gown with a sort of loose wrap and a big bouquet of mostly daisies. A lot of very pretty but not so interesting gowns. She looked great but it didn’t quite hit the mark. I thought Lea’s dress was great and so flattering on her. It was fine until the camera kind focused in on his butt, then I was like “too much!” LOL. Naked painted with silver, like a Greek statue come to life in the 21st Century. That said, I didn’t really like that he basically looked naked. I love his commitment and that he is just so confident in his choices. Lil Nas X definitely pulled off that look.
