@El'endiaStarman Admit it, you said that looking for stars.

He wants to be on Star Search

Star Search

Star Search is an American television show that was produced from 1983–95, hosted by Ed McMahon, and created by Alfred Masini. A relaunch was produced in 2003–04.

@waxeagle One of the funnier side-effects of Sky picking up GAA broadcasting rights is British people suddenly being exposed to hurling. There are a few good round-ups of their reactions.

Matt Gutting

@MattGutting I first visited the US with my family as a twelve-year-old. Our hosts took us to a baseball game. Boston Red Sox vs some other team I can't recall. The only time I've ever been in a sports stadium for the purpose of sport. It was a very boring afternoon: I should have brought a book.

Q: Why did Christianity disappear in North Africa?

During Roman times North Africa had a thriving Christian community, giving birth to Saint Augustine and a long lasting heresy. This is similar to many Christian communities of the time, from Egypt to the Syria. Today, Christianity disappeared so thoroughly from North Africa as to leave no trace...
