Quote of the Day:

It is all true, or it ought to be; and more and better besides.

Winston Churchill

  1. King Arthur’s tomb
    According to the text “An ancient manuscript still persevered at Oxford University, Graham believes, reveals the whereabouts of King Arthur’s long-lost tomb”

    “persevered” at Oxford University”?

    Buy the book to find out more? Not if they cannot get the sales-pitch right!

    1. Perceval and Persevere
      Looks like the helpful spell checker has struck again!

      Graham is a terrific researcher. If I have any criticism, it would be that he tends to focus too much on the material aspects of “The Grail” rather than the symbolic. It’s clear that Arthur was a universal royal type (an Abrahamic figure that couldn’t produce an heir due to the sterility of royal inbreeding), and much more than just a local hero.

  2. Creature in the Thames
    In this day and age, you’d think the still photo from the frame would be clearer. But what bothers me the most is the bombardment of ads that load before the video, rendering their website near useless.

  3. Racial Theorizing
    I would have guessed that the pale complexion of Europeans was the result of interbreeding with Neanderthals. My other guess was that albinos were outcasts in Africa and some of them got “out of town” before it was too late, haha. Reality may be stranger than fiction.
