Question
I'm beginning to like it here, Shane. Had no idea Jacqui Smith was sooo popular overseas, (believe there's something wrong with my spielchuecker too, must be an epidermic). Keep up the good works... H. "Shane" wrote in message ... Actually, I'm open to suggestions: I still haven't written to Jacqui Smith to arrange an appointment, in the event of their becoming Law, to insert my ID card in her. It has to be worded precisely. I mean, I wouldn't want to end up in Paddington Green (though I probably will for having mentioned the location). Shane Noel Paton wrote: Well - he might be, if he could actually find his d&ck! (DAM thot spielchucker! g) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi www.crashfixpc.co.uk "Shane Beatson" wrote in message ... . He's the minister responsible for GCHQ! And a w@nker of the first water. Shane |

The media would have fun with my service record; but there is nothing wrong in it. The idiots that have 'governed' the UK for the past 30 years have been little more than glove-puppets for the US administration, and had almost no concept of the idea of independence. That is the U.K.'s problem. The people should know how to fix it. The idea of the UK as the 51st)or is it now 52nd?) state ... Hard to say. I'd suspect that Puerto Rico has the best claim to be 51st, and American Samoa as 52nd. ... of the US has never been closer. I'd much rather have 'the big O' than 'the burning Bush' as a potential leader of 'the Western World' (please note the careful use of quotes and capitals!) I'd pack his bags and send him over to any other country that would have him, if I could. You definitely can have him. I'd rather have someone not so big on Big Government, myself. I'm a firm believer in minimalist government - but governments by nature will always attempt to govern the maximum they can. At some point the ability of the governments to control what they are attempting to govern breaks down - and the result is chaos. The recent carnage in the banking system worldwide is a good example of this, in that the US (with the largest deficit in the world) decided that unfettered credit was 'A Good Thing' - at least until it ran out - and the UK then decided that it couldn't be left behind in the lemming-race over the cliff. The 'Economic Miracle-worker' who made that decision is now making similar decisions over the use of what little nuclear deterrence the UK still possesses..... I doubt that anyone except the poor b%st$rds who actually have their fingers on the buttons really realise what that could mean! Having had my "finger on that button", I do understand that part of your ramble. (It wasn't really a button, and I needed more than one single finger to release it; it was more like two fingers, and two thumbs. Not all of them mine.) -- Norman ~Shine, bright morning light, ~now in the air the spring is coming. ~Sweet, blowing wind, ~singing down the hills and valleys. |

Question
Our Ministers are akin to the types who deny Evolution. By which I mean
they're just trotting out the same old attitudes and logic that has led to every dictatorship the race has ever known. While almost everyone would vote in the next National Socialist criminal gang - because that's what people do when confronted by perceived (legitimate) authority figures - people like Smith would attain a position of power within it (and not in order to fight them). She would swear that this is nonsense - but that is because she was only born yesterday (a hundred years ago yesterday). Shane webster72n wrote: I'm beginning to like it here, Shane.

Question
Having served in the National Guard myself, I believe the claims
against Bush's service record are dubious. The media would have fun with my service record; but there is nothing wrong in it. While I have little or no respect for those prepared to kill a) because someone else orders them too and b) someone defined as 'the enemy' or (more likely in recent times, on the idiot watch of the likes of Blair and Bush, and now 'Brown The Unelected') 'evil' because not only a politician says to but a politician who's a big enough liar and scoundrel to get to the top of the greasy pole, I do have a varying degree of respect for those who fight for freedom - even if they fail to understand, when they have, that they've been misled. They mean well. When it comes to those with ambitions for power - particularly dynastys - despite appalling ethical failings, which are pretty-much implicit in the type - I respect JFK. I respect Ike. I respect Churchill. I spit on Bush. I doubt there is anything amiss in your serving in the National Guard - or did your daddy keep you out of the fighting too? It is rather I suspect a problem with the electorate - the same kind we have here - that i) looks the other way while the Presidency is stolen by a loophole, presumably because about 40% of it are all for theft if they get the presumed kickback and ii) the friends of Uncle Charlie get to the White House while little people are still going to prison for cannabis possession. Obama, on the other hand, while he is a politician devious enough to be where he is, appears to have some integrity and is certainly not an idiot; but the main thing about his election is what it says about the American people, who have had the guts to elect a man of color (sic). Whatever happens in the new administration and whatever the more cynical might attribute it to, the flame of hope still flickers. For the past decade it was all but extinguished. And thank foch Sarah Palin isn't a heart attack away from the bat phone! Shane |

Question
I am amazed at your insight towards our affairs, including your own as understood, Shane. There definitely aren't many people capable of such a feat and fortunately you are one of them. Hopefully this inspires a few more to read and take heed. Thank you for the contribution. Harry. "Shane" wrote in message ...

Question
That's not my style at all. The location of my ISP is entirely
different from my own, which is roughly 50 miles west of Philly and placing you due north. Does that mean you live in a treehouse? Its a long time ago now but I seem to recall that's where the Pennsylvania People live, isn't it? And the top lifts up? Shane |

Not really, but wouldn't be so bad either at present circumstances g Its a long time ago now but I seem to recall that's where the Pennsylvania People live, isn't it? You've got that right!

Question
"Heather" wrote in message ... I understand you plan to open up a Best Buy in 2010, if the price is right (supposedly property values are falling rapidly right now)? I am not quite sure what you mean by this???? We have loads of Best Buy stores up here in Canada. In fact they bought out a huge electronics chain called Future Shop, which just might be their undoing. Perhaps you could enlighten me about what they are purchasing, etc. Didn't mean to leave you hang with this, but my reference was to a particular region near you, Quebec if I'm not mistaken, where they planned on opening a store. It was mentioned only once in the news on my screen. Not all that important either, since you already have so many of them. Their stores with merchandise and prices are good, without question. Now I have to get back to the chicken...witch is not really true, but usable as an excuse. H. "webster72n" wrote in message ... "Heather" wrote in message ... "webster72n" wrote in message ... I understand you plan to open up a Best Buy in 2010, if the price is right (supposedly property values are falling rapidly right now)? Are you flaming nuts?? You Americans started this world crisis and we are in far better shape financially (as a country) than you are. We have what are called "checks and balances" on the financial markets and the banks. And I am damn glad we do. Has nothing to do with what I am, Figgs, I was just quoting news about Best Buys holding off on that purchase in the hope that prices in properties will go lower. Negotiations must be pending. And where the financial crisis is concerned, it seems to be a world wide affair where the Brits and others have just as big a stake in it as we Americans do. You may have a somewhat better position nationally, but on a broader scale you are no better off than we are, since you are closely tied to us (with Mexico closer than any other country), because of the impending unification (like it or not!). Some 30 years ago, while I was working in property law, they tried out these sort of subprime mortgages. At renewal time, people just put their keys on the kitchen table and walked out. We have NEVER allowed anything quite so idiotic since. You deserve an A for effort in that regard! Grumbling......Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae......stupid bloody names for crooked mortgage companies....grumble. (G) Your anger is shared by many Americans , be assured, but that doesn't change anything, many also still love their capitalism, no matter how detrimental. Cheer up, there are better days ahead, if you can believe it. I just checked with my secret decoder ring and your ISP is in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania....... IOW, you are due south and west of me. Not near the coast at all. Unless you are counting Lake Erie.....lol. Now go wash your mouth out with Sunlight soap for fibbing!!! |

I could probably make it to your house in the same time span (G). And I was trying to remember what hooha was going on in Quebec with regard to a store and I believe that Walmart employees (ptui, hate Walmart) wanted to form a union (ptui, hate unions), so Walmart fired them all. Or shut down the store, which would have the same effect on hourly employees. One Yank company that doesn't do well up here is those god-awful Krispy Kreme things.....YUCK!! We will stick to Tim Horton's and ignore those. I do believe they have shut down their Cdn. stores. KK, I mean. Off to make a Jamaican fish dinner.....beats an imaginary chicken any day, LOL!!
