  6. oh you sad person.

    On a small note of Sophie Ellis Bextor "fame" she filmed one of her pop
    videos - the one where she is a mannequin and crashes through a plate
    glass window - in our horribly decrepid Central Arcade in Walthamstow.
    The place is now boarded up and due for demolition - I am unclear as to
    whether the two events are related.

    He produces more football than other footballers, does he?

    Or are you making the same mistake as a chap at work, who insisted
    that Ferrari was a more prolific car manufacturer than Ford?

    Erm, no..... I was taking the below definition of 'prolific':

    Prolific: marked by abundant inventiveness or productivity

    Which sums up Zidane's football. HTH.

    Which, indeed, it might, but it does not hint as to *why* Mr
    Carmichael may have been expected to have heard of him.

    Seems I made the mistake that most people would have had an interest in
    the World Cup and / or watched the sports news at least occasionally.

    I fear you're missing my point: "his abundant inventiveness" would not
    necessarily ensure his notoriety, especially amongst those
    disinterested in football, in a country:
    A) for whom he does not play football, and
    B) in which he does not earn his living.

    Not in this case. Certainly not as objectionable as some.

    But she's not Jimmy Page. I'm sure she and her Mother are very pleased
    about this. I know I'm indifferent.
