French diplomacy
Paul blogged this story before I got around to it. It seems the French ambassador to Israel has made some rather unkind comments about his hosts. I suppose, for a Frenchman, they were rather mellow. It would be most amusing if Israel told the slimy little oik to piss off back to France.

Peter is temporarily hanging his shingle over at Iain’s blog. I don’t know about you, but I think Peter’s style works well with general vibe of England’s Sword. One has to wonder whether Iain should just let him stay on permanently.

No sooner than Alistair Campbell “retires” than Mandy is back. What is going on?
It was reported today that Peter Mandleson is back at the heart of the UK Government and will be “assisting” Tony Blurgh with spin. So that’s three strikes… Is he out next time?

From someone who growls very well on behalf of those who have not the skill to pinpoint the problem quite so succinctly, here are two excellent posts about the shame that is “media” today, all round the world. We are ill-served by that bunch of mealy-mouthed “efite elite”.

Everywhere, their opportunities are restricted by the growth of government, bureaucracy and rising taxation. Yet no political party seems to care about the Baby Busters. They are a rabble, waiting for a rouser.
This is a quote about the “baby busters” and their plight, in an excellent piece by George Trefgarne
David comments on this piece as well.

Deep Thoughts
=========
1) Never raise your hands to kids. It leaves your groin unprotected.
2) I’m not into working out. My philosophy: No pain, no pain.
3) I’m trying to figure out why kamikaze pilots wore helmets.
4) Ever wonder if illiterate people get the full effect of alphabet
soup?
5) I always wanted to be somebody, but I should have been more specific.
6) Did you ever notice when you blow in a dog’s face he gets mad at you?
But, when you take him in a car he sticks his head out the window?7) Have you ever noticed anyone driving slower than you is an idiot and
anyone driving faster than you is a maniac.
You have to stay in shape. My aunt started walking five miles a day
when she was 60. She’s 97 today and we have no idea where she is.
9) I have six locks on my door all in a row. When I go out, I lock every
other one. I figure no matter how long somebody stands there picking the
locks, they are always locking three.
10) The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four is suffering
from some form of mental illness. Think of your 3 best friends. If they
are O.K., then it’s you.
11) I ask people why they have deer heads on their walls. They always
say because it’s such a beautiful animal. I think my mother is
attractive, but I only have photos of her.
12) Future historians will be able to study at the Gerald Ford library,
the James Carter Library, the Ronald Reagan Library, and the Bill
Clinton adult bookstore.
Thanks to John for the list.
