    Dubrovnik is a nice warm place with a fully-nude beach, whereas the other beach behind our hotel was merely topless. I had brought only a one-piece suit, so I did consider the nude beach, but then I realized I was about to spend a couple of weeks...

    If it's boggling you're after, I'll see your Duke's Mound, and raise you Parson's Pleasure.

    Britain is simply too cold for nudism. It's called FKK in Germany, and we have beaches dedicated to it. Last Christmas my mum bought me a t-shirt saying, "I'm a nudist." I haven't worn it yet.

    I found myself singing "Chickery chick, cha-la, cha-la, Check-a-la romey in a bananika" a couple of days ago, and thought wow, how did THAT one come into my mind?

    Indeed. I have no doubt he was lampooning the FDA (and perhaps some colleagues?) for taking the hoax seriously. From today's perspective, it's a shame that he included that racist Ralph Waldo Emerson quote. As to being current on the music of...

    I really think it is important to differentiate between "honest" and "accurate." Given contradictions in accounts, it is not possible that all the accounts are accurate. At the very best, some must be in error whether they saw something...

    Funny how bad actors often end up getting away with it, even when a case is far from being resolved. That's why any thread about cases like this is a total waste of time, I'm definitely done with this whole thing, good bye!

    On the contrary! Neglecting the cultural and social landscape upon which the case is built leads to misunderstanding the nuances that allow hoaxes like this one to fester. If it was not for Rede Globo's spotlight, there would be no social...

    (Edit to add: I think what you describe is just coincidence. It happens.) I'm aware of a different kind of synchronicity, which is devoid of woo although it often appears superficially that it might be. It is stimulus-driven, but the...
