Mark, this is beneath you.
Nah, that’s what blogging is for. OTOH, that’s harsh.
There’s a definite similarity in the shape of the nose … she’s got a much better chin, though.
Too pointless to be harsh.
Oxymoronpleonasmtautology of the day: “disgraced News Corp. executive”. [Update abusing blogger privileges to confuse comment thread]Really, this had no intended political point. When I saw the news photo, it struck me that Brooks had the hair-do and the supercilious look of one of a Restoration courtier.
James, don’t you mean “pleonasm”?
King Charles looks more like Rowan Atkinson than Rebekah Brooks, to my eye.
Does this mean we should be living in fear of a Restoration?
Oops. I meant “tautology”. I understand “pleonasm” to be pleonastically the same thing. I must have been led astray by the appropriate associations of “moron”.
If News Corp. implodes, what will become of its aleptic nympholepts?
This is a total insult to Charles II!!
