Arguably, it would be easier to recognise a picture of the full planet Earth if you didn't live on it.

"Captcha", as in the tool used by websites to prove you're "not a robot", is an acronym for "Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart".

Well not a totally useless fact this being a Hibs message board but in 1927/28 season Hibs played Queens Park and won the home match 6-2 and lost the away game 6-2.

This thread has been hijacked with some useful information and that’s not right,

According to Wikipedia, there were 9 people born prior to 26th April 1902 who lived beyond 21st may 2016.
The population in 1902 was 1.6bn which means of those alive when Hibs won the Scottish cup they had a 0.0000005625% chance of seeing it happen again.Last edited by danhibees1875; 05-11-2019 at 08:06 AM.

Unhygienix, the fishmonger in the Asterix books, is always barefoot. Surprisingly, this is not commented on in any of the stories.

Scotland and England were once separated by a massive ocean called the Iapetus ocean. Both were south of the equator and Scotland was part of what is now North America.

Generally speaking the Gospel of Mark is considered to be the first written and is regarded as being close to a first hand account. His description of a young man standing at a distance in the Garden of Gethsemane before the arrest of Jesus is thought by some to be a depiction of himself. The subsequent Gospels, Matthew then Luke then John tended to expand on Marks work and evolve the idea of Jesus as a divine being. As an example when describing the resurrection of Jesus Marks Gospel describes the tomb as being occupied by a 'young man dressed in a white robe' whilst the Gospel of Matthew depicts 'an angel in clothes as white as snow'; Luke talks of 'two men in clothes as white as snow' whilst John describes 'two angels' and a 'gardener' who is revealed to be Jesus himself.
The Nativity scene was developed by the west to portray the humility of Jesus, a helpless infant in a vulnerable state. The addition of snow and harsh weather conditions probably played nicely into that. Further the Gospels themselves again hold the clue. Marks Gospel omits the Christmas story and is scant on detail throughout. As I said above it's regarded as a first hand account and reads like someone keen to get as much of what they remember written down as quickly as possible, it starts at the beginning of Jesus' public life. Matthew and Luke (by far the most commonly used in the liturgy of the Catholic Church) expand on the story and are arguably propaganda by early Christians to push home the case for Jesus as the Messiah, the divine birth and supernatural imagery play nicely into that. Both use the preceding texts, Marks Gospel in the case of Matthew and Mark and Matthew in the case of Luke as the basis for their writings along with the 'Q source' in the two source hypothesis. Johns Gospel is a far more political and theological work. It assumes a level of knowledge on behalf of the reader and is primarily focused on the separation of the early Christian movement from Judaism. It also draws information from not only the works of Matthew, Mark and Luke but also the 'Signs Gospel. John is clear that Jesus is divine from the beginning, there is no ambiguity as there is with Mark. The Christmas story is omitted because it is , in the eyes of the author, not required.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

Laphroaig was legal to buy in prohibition, but only from pharmacies. Due to its pungent, antiseptic like smell it was mistaken for an antiseptic and it was mistakenly granted a medicinal license.
There are also towns in the US where prohibition to this date has never ended.
Also, due to the erratic supply of booze to some premises, the concept of tipping was founded in prohibition to help subsidise staff in bars serving the illegal, smuggled booze.
Final prohibition fact, bathtub gin is not called as such because it was made in bathtubs (although it may have been if chosen). It was largely made in hot water containers but to fill the bottles, the perfect sized implement was a bathtap which was plumbed into the end of the tank.
