And Now For Something Completely Different

No, this isn't a Monty Python skit, it's a real story from London!!

Just in time for the sporting crowd coming for the Olympics a hotel in London has replaced the bibles in the rooms with "Fifty Shades of Grey". Sounds like a good swap to me. I think the book "Fifty Shades" will be more instructive and provide more interesting reading than the bible. Mind you, I haven't read either book, I'm just going by what I've read about them. But hey, most bible-thumpers know less about their holy book than I do!!
Some images I found on google.

It's interesting what you can find on google. If I had read the book, maybe I'd know whether the main character was male or female!!


Anywho, the main point of this post is the fact that a hotel in London replaced the bible with "Fifty Shades of Grey". They said hardly anyone reads the bible anyway and maybe this would spice things up a bit.

Some would say they are replacing one book of fiction (one with multiple authors written over many centuries) with another work of fiction with only one author and considerably fewer rewrites!! I'll leave that up to you to decide.

  1. I haven't read fifty shades of grey and have no idea what it is about.

    One of the local hardware stores stocks some black power shooting supplies. They have large outdoors and camping, hunting, fishing departments, interestingly they don't sell guns.

    Other than BB and Pellet guns.

  2. Google is handy, a lady blogging friend in Texas that has a problem with an asshole neighbor posted a view of their place and because it had a named lake on it I was able to find exactly where she lives.
