Sexual Frustration Causes Breast Cancer???

No, that’s not a front page headline from an upcoming edition of the Daily Express. Rather its an actual newly published essay in an oncology journal, ‘The Breast Journal’, which is published by Wiley-Blackwell with the following promotional blurb: The Breast Journal is the first comprehensive, multidisciplinary source […]

Coming Soon – Rhys Morgan the Movie

It would appear from today’s Twitter traffic that Rhys Morgan has now hit the big time with the acquisition of his own personal fruitloop, who comes complete with their own batshit insane Youtube channel, ‘SKEPTICSexposed’ (seven videos and counting, so far). That said, most of the smart money […]

Hilary Jones and the Sofa of Doom

We don’t need no Steenkin’ Kitemark

I think this more or less sums up my feelings about Lord Hunt’s suggest that bloggers might like to voluntarily sign up to a PCC-run kitemark scheme… Actually, I should point out, as well, that the term ‘Kitemark’ is a registered trademark of the British Standards Institute, which […]

NOTW Was Responsible for ‘Deleted’ Dowler Voice Mails
