Soupy twist
Hanukkah tonight!
I got, from Amazon (both in the same box from my parents):
A Bit of Fry and Laurie, season 4
The Gun Seller by Hugh Laurie (which I've already read, but wished to own)
Hugh Laurie-stravaganza!!!!
*dances*

You seem to be a great fan of Stephen Fry and I have to say that he is a great artist but, unfortunately, not infallible! I watched the same QI show and have to tell you that Alexander the Great was not Albanian but, was born in Pella, Greece and although a Macedonian, not one from FYROM either ( Former Yugoslavian Republic of Macedonia ). Santa Claus ( was called Megas Basileios ) was from Cappadokia which is now part of modern Turkey but, at the time, part of the Byzantine Empire.
As a Greek from the geographical region of Macedonia ( because that is what it only is nowadays and spreads between the Former Yugoslavia, Greece and Bulgaria ), I was very much shocked by that blatant inaccuracy ( if not lie )! So, as much as we like him, he can be very very wrong at times...
