Dizer writes: "Today sees the historic introduction of the new European Currency (Euro) into European hands. The Eurozone market, with a population of 300 million people, will be cashing in their Punts, Francs and Deutschmarks in favour of the new common Euro currency. This is the biggest currency transition in history, vive l'Europe! See stories on ireland.com or the BBC."

"These books teach children how they can get into witchcraft and become a witch, wizard or warlock," Brock said. Members sang "Amazing Grace" as they threw book and magazines into the fire. "

If only.

I tried reading shakespeare and all I got was a headache.

I mean, I rather liked Harry Potter, but I'm still waiting for a flying motorcycle and a giant to get me into witchcraft.

Personally, I settle for a BJ from Denise Richards, I can do without the rest of the magic crap.

Hi! What's "spectator's day"? Do you European kids do matinees on a day-of-the-week basis instead of a time-of-day basis?
