Oh, Right, Then……..
Of course Blunkett never jumped the queue! Well, perhaps the presence of 4 bodyguards might have helped a little.

Many people post work-related entries on personal blogs, but they don’t expect to be terminated
By TODD BISHOP
SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER REPORTER
Michael Hanscom began keeping an online journal, commonly known as a weblog, several years ago. He started his job as a contract worker in Microsoft’s print shop last year. Last week, he mixed the two.Read more Comments are off for this postThis week, he’s looking for a new job, after becoming an unwilling case study in the fine line walked by corporate employees who write about work in their personal weblogs.
It all started when Hanscom noticed something interesting on the loading dock on his way into work a week ago — three pallets of shiny new Apple Power Mac G5 computers, clearly destined for somewhere on the company’s Redmond campus.
Protocols of the Elders of Zion in Eqypt
The ROPMA idiot who runs the museum has played a copy of this fraud next to the Torah in a display on Judiasm.
“Perhaps this book of the ‘Protocols of the Elders of Zion’ is more important to the Zionist Jews of the world than the Torah, because they conduct Zionist life according to it… It is only natural to place the book in the framework of an exhibit of Torah [scrolls].”
Who funded the library run by this anti-semitic fool? Why an arm of the UN, of course.

I wonder how long it will be before the RMT go on strike again?
It was reported today that five Tube “workers” have been sacked for bringing more that one hundred cans of beer into work! RMT now claim that its unfair dismissal.
Read the full story here
Just to put this into perspective… RMT have already scheduled a “Go Slow” on Monday 8th December to protest against…. wait for it…. safety issues!
However, they have at least had the forsight to move this to Tuesday in light of the Rugby celebrations

It seems Blair used the President’s visit for some useful discussions. Rather unfortunate that Bush put them on in the first place.

John Le Carre has totally lost it and is rightly fisked by both Daniel Johnson and by Melanie Phillips. Oh yes, and for good measure, he proves himself to be an anti-semite too.

Oliver has written an extended piece trouncing the Liberals for their appeasement of Hitler in the ‘30s. This is in response to James Graham’s protestations to the contary. Oddly enough the Liberal Democrats are behaving just the same today.

“The Internet tax debate is filled with misperceptions, rhetoric, and even a bit of old-fashioned betrayal. Perhaps the greatest misperception is that the Internet isnt taxed at all. Its easy to see how folks could get confused, given that Congress keeps talking about renewing the ‘Internet tax moratorium.’ But the moratorium isnt a ban on sales taxes on the Internet. Its a ban on discriminatory taxes, such as Internet access taxes, which erect barriers to low-income people getting online.” (11/03)

“Swedish authorities are warning citizens to be on the look out for berry-intoxicated elks. ... Experts say the animals are likely to get even more aggressive as they feast on the last of the summer berries which have fermented into potent alcoholic fruit. ... ‘Some elks get very calm but others very aggressive after they’ve had alcoholic fruit, just like humans.’” (11/28/03)

“High times were had by some yesterday as Montreal’s first marijuana cafe opened its doors, less than a block away from a police station.
Several police officers squeezed into Chez Marijane and arrested two men who were holding joints, said Hugo St-Onge, president of the Bloc Pot party. ‘To tell you the truth, I’m surprised,’ St-Onge said from the police station, where he was helping the two men, aged 26 and 51. ‘It’s a waste of their time, a waste of money. But it’s simple possession and it’s illegal.’ One of the men arrested has multiple sclerosis, he said.” (11/30/03)

Sex, drugs, and rock & roll: a libertarian view
The religious and the straight-laced in the world have always looked upon rock & roll as a shining example of libertinism. I would posit that, on the contrary, rock & roll, more specifically, hard rock and heavy metal, are libertarianism in action.
The hard rock scene and some of its side-genres are a good indicator of how open the young populace would be to libertarian ideals and ideas. It appears that if most of youth are concerned with sex, drugs, and rock & roll (henceforth referred to as SDR&R), then there is a good chance your country is doing well.
