The "second sight" possessed by the Highlanders in Scotland is actually a foreknowledge of future events. I believe they possess this gift because they don't wear trousers.

There will very probably be a replay. As the ref's decision ought to have been: corner.
Well, on the other hand, what do I know about football? :)

Suppose I should stick to silently writing
To think
I must be alone:
To love
We must be together.
I think I love you
When I'm alone
More than I think of you
When we're together.
I cannot think
Without loving
Or love
Without thinking
Alone I love
To think of us together
Together I think
I'd love to be alone.

Never wake a lazy lion
Ladies and gentlemen,
Dames en heren,
Bayanlar, Baylar,
Signoras e Signori,
Señoras y Señores,
Mesdames et Messieurs,
Friends,
I am so sorry to cause inconviences.
Some religious nutters cause me, in a first step to ask for word verification. As soon as the lady and the gentleman* (or the machine) get tired and thus decide to focus on other poor bloggers, I shall return to easy business as usual.
* My esteemed readers will notice that on my quest to become the politest blogger in this universe and those yet to discover, I did not call mentioned lady and gentleman names.
Otherwise, I'd say they are fucking idiots.
The peace of the night.
