Some notes on the worst-case scenario
Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch audio version is now considerably brightening my commute, so thank you. Anyone, any idea how Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett split the writing? I see this by Gaiman, amusing but not detailed: Good Omens: How Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett wrote a book As told by Gaiman: "It's Terry," said Terry. "'Ere. That thing you sent me.

Some notes on the worst-case scenario
Yes. Thatsthejoke.jpg Mr PaMar posts a book. Claims I've not read it (has some truth, was skimming it). Post chapter 20 bit that refutes both his model and his accusation. Post wikipedia link to a theory that is a common pop-psychology myth but in which reality declares and that there are no stages of grief to pass. . This is also false: there are incredibly powerful cultural standards to grief.

Some notes on the worst-case scenario
In summation, here's some anti-Fascist pr0n: Kilted Yoga YT: reality: 0:57 20th Feb 2017 And yes, that really is a few incredibly buff Scottish men practicing yoga in kilts and not much else (warning: NSFW - one cheekily proves it towards the end).
