Can we vote on that?... the pics are not really suitable for these esteemed pages

Now you're sounding like Stephen Colbert criticizing CNN's story about Satanism:May well have been that or, as someone else posted above, I could well have mixed I Dream of Jeannie up with Bewitched - another 60s sit-com about a bemused middle-class American man trying to cope with living with an attractive blonde woman who possessed supernatural powers.
Kinda reinforces my view that every instance of the ME stems from nothing more spooky than imperfect recollections.
Just one problem. That picture they showed isn’t Satan, it’s the Balrog, from the 1977 Lord of the Rings calendar. ... Now devils and balrogs are totally different. Devils are angels who refuse to serve God, and followed Satan into hell. Balrogs are Maiar who refused to serve Eru and instead followed Morgoth into Thangorodrim.
Was that from Max's, er, 'special' collection?!Its all been sorted, i was linked to said photos in a private message as the pics are not really suitable for these esteemed pages
She has done some very recent topless shoots as wellI just Googled under the terms “Kerry Katona naked page 3” (purely for research purposes, obvs). It didn’t take long to find a B&W photo consistent with a Sun-type shoot, and showing her of an apparently appropriate age.
My theory is that she is tiptoeing around the only revelation more embarrassing than admitting that she once posed topless for a tabloid: that she posed topless for a tabloid and they decided not to use the pics...

Hot? In this weather?I just had the Mandela Effect happen to me. I was watching this hot Indian woman jog round the park. On her 3rd lap she had turned white. I thought must be a different lass. She was hot too. But no it was her she had exact same clothes and tatoos. Then she did a 4th lap still white.
Either way both women were fit

Was speaking to Donna on the phone last night and we were talking about false memories.The Pink Farmhouse
Reassuring Donna that I was indeed correct on this, it was suggested we unearth those old photos.
Eventually unveiled, they did confirm that the farmhouse had, in earlier times, been painted...
... white.
NO IT WASN'T!!! Distinctly and memorably PINK.
Would have sworn an oath on this.
You have so eloquently expressed the conundrum.It would seem to suggest either of two things - neither of which is trivial
Thought my hospital experience was end of the Twilight Zone for this week...
Spoke to Donna this morning.Shall obviously speak with her soon as - need to resolve...
And I thought that's surely an homage to the Natural History of Ireland's chapter on snakes, which - I would have staked larger fractions of bitcoin on - read in toto "There are no snakes on the island of Ireland". I was pretty certain Tristram Shandy makes reference to it. Plus, courtesy of St Patrick, it's a perfectly sound claim to make.
Stop Press. Woman who has name, has name. And not another name.
I had my own little Mandela moment listening to the radio a few days ago. The song "Tell it to My Heart" came on and I immediately thought of the artist who sang it. My recollection of band and artist names is a (sort of) "party piece" for me.
When it was over, the DJ gave a similar sounding name but not the one I had in my head. I chuckled and thought he'd made a mess of pronouncing it. But then I looked at the radio and the channel information showed the name and artist. Sure enough, it was his name that was correct. I was baffled and I am still confused as I knew with 100% certainty that I had the correct name in my head.

What names comes to your mind (before you open the spoiler)?
I was sure she was called Taylor DEAN but it turns out that she's called Taylor DAYNE
Because most people don't call it that, or even recognize it as a distinct sea. As Wikipedia says about the name:Glanced at a glossy map of the British isles and was confounded to discover besides the North Sea and the Irish Sea we are bounded by the Celtic Sea. How on earth have I lived half a century without even once hearing that term?!View attachment 41769
It was adopted in France before being common in the English-speaking countries; in 1957 Édouard Le Danois wrote, "the name Celtic Sea is hardly known even to oceanographers." It was adopted by marine biologists and oceanographers, and later by petroleum exploration firms. It is named in a 1963 British atlas, but a 1972 article states "what British maps call the Western Approaches, and what the oil industry calls the Celtic Sea [...] certainly the residents on the western coast [of Great Britain] don't refer to it as such."
