Sadly, I can never finish them, because I sit there waiting for the ending.
However, in my last failed attempt the baddie gets killed by being stabbed in the back of the neck with a broken-off table lamp. Still plugged in.

Please quantify more
whoops, should have read the article thoroughly, it is quantified. After eight years less than half a percent of the women had developed heart disease, whereas two percent of men had. Yet the article goes on to moan about women's diets.....

Good job I don't eat any fruit or veg really. Just butter, cheese, red meat. And my BMI is 20. Go figure.
