    God has written a good book - the Bible.

    God is a better writer than Dan Brown, although not in the same league as JRR Tolkien.

    Mexican swine flu is one of the weird new Walkers flavours, yeah?

    I like the new Al Qaeda In Iraq flavour.

    Not so keen on the Bruce Grobbelaar flavour though - tasted like swan to me.
