A very English/Danish comedienne - always good value for money.
Call My Bluff was a long-running British game show between two teams of three celebrity contestants. The point of the game is for the teams to take it in turn to provide three definitions of an obscure word, only one of which is correct. The other team then has to guess which is the correct definition, the other two being "bluffs". It ended in 1995 but who knows may come back.
Examples of words used in Call my Bluff, taken from a book published in connection with the show in 1972, are Queach, Strongle, Ablewhacket, Hickboo, Jargoon, Zurf, Morepork, and Jirble. "Queach", for instance, was defined as "a malicious caricature", "a cross between a quince and a peach", or "a mini-jungle of mixed vegetation". The first and second of those particular definitions are bluffs.
You're Sooooo Political

You have a political background or a political mind, a political family or
a political viewpoint. Now tell me, where has that gotten you so far? You
may be...
I've Moved To Medium

After 10 years on blogger, I took a break from writing. I spent a brief
year and a half stint on Tumblr, mostly screwing around (and still do) with
picture...
