Benno (@Benglorious): The Crystal Palace was a cast-iron and plate-glass building originally erected in Hyde Park, London, England, to house the Great Exhibition of 1851.  More than 14,000 exhibitors from around the world gathered in the Palace’s 990,000 square feet of exhibition space to display examples of the latest technology developed in the Industrial Revolution.  Designed by Sir […]

We’re playing City?  What’s all this business about Derby, then? Today’s Match Pack: Our Manchester vs Manchester Preview How do you do that thing where you makes the words bigger and differenter colours? And seriously, how good would it be if Optimus Prime was real? I’ve worked out how to do Italics. Click that button at […]

Benno (@Benglorious): The Confederacy vs. The Union.  The Roundheads vs. The Cavaliers.  The Republicans vs. The Nationalists (That was in Spain according to Wikipedia).  Erm…. “Civil War” by Guns ‘n’ Roses.  These are all examples of wars between people living in the same place, or “Civil Wars”.  Now, I looked up “civil” in a wordbook, […]

  Benno (@Benglorious): Before I begin, I’d like to offer my apologies for my absence from these pages last week.  Ha!  Like anyone even noticed after Brody did his thoroughly researched piece of ghostwriting.  I’d take every weekend off if he was going to fill in for me with such quality, but the fact that […]

  Benno (@Benglorious): I’m not going to lie, it’s been a couple of emotionally-charged weeks in the Glorious household.  I imagine United’s transfer shenanigans have also left both of you not knowing whether to dance with joy or sob your eyes out.  Not just tears but proper chest-heaving cries and loads of snot running into […]
