Almost a week has gone by with the news full of "When will Tony Blair depart?"
This just in... Somone out there (not I) voted for him / them. You made your bed - now lie in it!
The only people who should be callign for Blair to go, are those who voted for other candidates / parties!
If nothing else, it means I can look forward to a few years of Tory rule after the next general election - since Labour is looking increasingly un-electable. Huzzah!

Legislators miss the point, yet again
According to various news sources (The BBC) swords are to be banned...
I am sorely tempted to go out and buy a Katana, a Sabre, and a broadsword. The last two I could use in Tai Chi, the Katana just because it's a thing of beauty.
The trouble with this proposed legislation, from the ne'er do wells in the Scottish Parliament, emphasis on lament, is it again doesn't solve anything.
You need to legislate against the arseholes who carry knives and swords, and do business with them after a night out drinking. A reaction of "Think of the children" and "Quick! Ban it!" hasn't helped anyone in the past (look at gun crime) and here we are again.
Vote for the abolishion of the Scottish Parliament. After all, we only need one set of donkeys to run the country.

Climate change debate is 'porn'
That's the headline for a short article on page 2 of the Metro today. Yes I read the metro. It's useful for hitting tourists with.
Anyway, the article reads:
Thrilling? Of course it is - it's the reason for most of these green groups to exist.
Without people being whipped into a religious fervour about their cause, they would have no purpose, and if they have no purpose, they would have to get a haircut, and get a real job.
Anyway, the article reads:
Language used to debate climate change in the environment is effectively 'climate porn', a study has claimed. It offers a thrilling spectacle but also distances people from the issue, the Institute for Public Policy Research said. After looking at 600 articles and adverts to find out how green groups, the media and the Government discuss the issue, it said many were alarmist and viewed the subject as thrilling.

The Green Monster
I was in the flat the other night, and thought I heard the door - so off I went to see what was going on.
I found some propaganda from the Green Party had been pushed through the letterbox. Sadly I wasn't quick enough to set fire to it, and throw it back at the guy. I wasn't even quick enough to call him a hippy.
I am in no way interested in the workings of Green MSPs, I did not vote for them, and I certainly don't approve of them pissing money from Scottish tax-payers up the wall on their histrionics. As far as I am concerned, they should get a haircut, and get a real job. Unless they are bald. But the point about the real job remains.
If I find who let them into the stair to spread their filth, I will have words with them.

Pree-teen mother arrested on night out.
Do you all remember the story of the 12 year old girl who couldn't keep her legs together after going out and getting drunk?
Well, the child has been had by the child, and she's off getting drunk again:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/edinburgh_and_east/5205760.stm
It's great to see the natural order has been maintained.
Some people should not be allowed to breed.
The worst thing of all is - what is going to become of the child's child?

A good face for radio?
As my colleague and I were driving with the radio on, earlier on this week, I made the mistake of listening to one of their adverts.
It was for a Computer Doctor. They mentioned the company as "'puter doctor" or at least that is what I think i heard. They mentioned the domain name, but did not spell it out. So some guy has paid for an advert that makes it almost impossible to get in touch with him. Gee, that's a great idea.
I looked for Computer Doctor first, and www.computerdoctor.com is a guy in Austin, Texas. (His place always looked busy when I drove past his office, so I think he's on to a good thing. But he's probably of little use when the advert is on Forth One, for Edinburgh!
www.computerdoctor.co.uk is based in London, so again, probably not much use to folk in Edinburgh.
I have also tried permutations and combinations of puter, pooter and the like. If you're advertising on the radio, and using a made up word for your domain as a main point of contact - go on! Spell it out for us!
Clearly some people are too dim to be allowed to advertise...

Sofaking what?
Aye, apologies for the headline.
I flitted on Tuesday of last week. It was not fun.
My nice 3 seater cream leather sofa has been left behind. Why? I hear you ask... Because the removal guys couldn't get the thing through the door. They tried it a couple of different ways. Still no joy.
I told them the sofa was delivered in packaging, and came in with the door where it is.
We took the door off.
The sofa is still sitting in my old flat. I am grumpy.
