    'Share and share alike' - the meaning and origin of this phrase
    What's the origin of the phrase 'Share and share alike'?
    The expression was first known as 'share and share like', as in this example from Richard Edwards's comedy Damon and Pithias, 1566:
    "Let vs into the Courte to parte the spoyle, share and share like."

    Daniel Defoe, appears to be the first to have used the 'share and share alike' version. That was is Robinson Crusoe, or as he called it The life and strange adventures of Robinson Crusoe, 1719:
    "He declar'd he had reserv'd nothing from the Men, and went Share and Share alike with them in every Bit they eat."​


    Italians eat noodles, and have cowboys in Spagetti Western movies, we have Maggi & Murugan.
    But the song says nothing about Maggi; the chorus line is about idli, aappam and sambar !!

    Unknowns, Knowns, Uncontrollables, Controllables are words that come up in business school jargon. But one American gent is using them in an advice column (to women). His point is that girls can spend their time on what they can control, and not bother with stuff not in their control. Here is his chart <source>:

    I am wasting a lot of time following the Brexit, Irish-Backstop, Customs/Single Market etc. etc. discussions. Occasionally there is some hilarity in all that:

    It appears that the Khassogghi disappearance would be hushed up with compensation payment to the bereaved family.
    State media also said the king and the crown prince had held a meeting in Riyadh with members of the Khashoggi family, including Khashoggi's son, Salah bin Jamal.
    ---- from BBC news, after Erdogan's speech on Tuesday, Oct 23, 2018.

    Wikipedia on Diya (Islam) - Wikipedia
    Diya (Arabic: دية‎; plural diyāt, Arabic: ديات‎) in Islamic law, is the financial compensation paid to the victim or heirs of a victim in the cases of murder, bodily harm or property damage. It is an alternative punishment to qisas (equal retaliation). In Arabic, the word means both blood money and ransom, and it is spelled sometimes as diyah or diyeh.[citation needed]
    It only applies when victim's family want to compromise with the guilty party; otherwise qisasapplies.

    If Your Only Tool Is a Hammer Then Every Problem Looks Like a Nail
    If Your Only Tool Is a Hammer Then Every Problem Looks Like a Nail – Quote Investigator

    The second worst thing one can make in an airfryer is bacon. Top spot goes to fish. It is really really hard to get rid of the smell and cross contamination to other stuff one would put in the airfryer. Recently I learned that if you have a kitchen balcony, that is the place to put your airfryer that can cook fish, bacon, and whatever else you want.

    A friend has an airfryer that is always set out in her kitchen balcony. It has a plastic cover (for rain and snow) also. She cooks both fish and bacon in that. As well as steaks and tandoori-chicken. It is never used inside the kitchen. A clever idea.

    Mumbaikar to the Irish Rescue from Brexit debacle:
    Leo Varadkar, the Irish son of Indian immigrants, and the current Prime Minister may even become the one to finally free the whole of Ireland from British Rule.
    The Brexit process could be helping him achieve that.

    The following is from:NO HARD BORDER! Bullish Varadkar issues Brexit WARNING - 'We have a HUGE difficulty'
    "The agreement says that everyone in Northern Ireland has the right to be Irish or British or both, and that's a principle that I really support and very much stand by."

    Mr Varadkar said that he wants to ensure that those in Northern Ireland who are Irish citizens can retain European citizenship after Brexit.

    He said: “What we are trying to do in these negotiations is to ensure that people in Northern Ireland who choose to avail of Irish citizenship, who choose to retain that European citizenship, continue to have all the rights that are associated with being a European citizen, the right to travel freely, to work or study in any of the 27 remaining member states.

    "We are also examining the rights linked to residency, for example participation in Erasmus, participation in the European health insurance card system.

    “We want to see if we can ensure that EU citizens living in Northern Ireland can still benefit from those as though they still resident in the EU."
