Favourite WMD quote


They've looked everywhere - they'll be in the last place they look, won't they? I'm like that with scissors. Of course, the difference is that I know that I have some scissors."

Linda Smith, British comedian, (1958-2006)(This typist's favourite comedian. Ever.)

I've never heard of her?????

No Anon, she isn't well known on this side of the pond which was our loss.
She was very big in Britain - used to appear on BBC Radio 4 quiz shows and in the Edinburgh fringe.

She was voted Britains wittiest person.

She died this time last year. Ovarian cancer. Too young and too funny to die.

I didn't know her either but that's sad.

Isn't everything you find in the last place you look? Or do some people keep looking after they've found something?
