I thought the remake of Bedazzled was pretty good, too. I think they knew they couldn't match the brilliance of the first, so they just kept it fun.

I think "Raving, tasty homo" is an anagram of the name of almost every gay man I know.

errr, no "raving tasty homo" might well be a metaphor for almost every gay man, but I doubt you could make those words from, say, the letters in "Rupert Everett" or "Stephen Fry" :^)

OK, I'm thinking your first name is Thomas, but I'm struggling with your surname...you're not of Italian descent are you? And 34!!! I feel sooo much better now! Someone else was later than me! Yay! Great meme - lots of interesting stuff there!!! :-)

heh, heh, heh - no my first name isn't thomas !

And as for being 34, yes it was late - and there was nothing with women before it either ! Sometimes I yearn for my celibate days - you certainly look at people completely differently when they are not sexual beings. In a strange way I can sort of understand the Catholic Church's view on the celibacy of the priesthood, although I don't agree with their theological basis for it.

Damn, and here I thought I was rather clever coming up with Thomas! lol
