Morissey does a runner
Once bitten twice shy Once bitten twice shy Fully agree, it's just a shame that Morissey took it out on the wrong people.

Morissey does a runner
Great way of making a living, get thousands of people to pay a fair sum to see you and then use any excuse to not do any work. If he's too ill to face that many people then maybe he shouldn't be taking people's money. Or maybe he should get a proper job.- PerlOfWisdom

Number Crunching
No, that's a googol. A googolplex is ten to the power of a googol. It's impossible to write the number, it has 10^100 digits which is more than the number of atoms in the universe.- PerlOfWisdom
