Mohamed Fayed attacks Prince Philip

February 18th, 2008 | Category: Politics

He described Prince Philip as a “Nazi” and a “racist” and said: “It’s time to send him back to Germany from where he comes. You want to know his original name – it ends with Frankenstein.”

Why does the UK put up with this scumbag? The man is an obsessed nutter who is wasting taxpayers money on his own obsession.

Sex, Lies, and Reality

February 18th, 2008 | Category: Politics

Gwyneth Llewelyn takes a stern look at some of the virtual world myths perpetuated by the ignorant and the clueless. There have been some interesting studies of late about virtual worlds; cronically undereported in the media. It seems they only care about negative reports about online worlds.

An interesting ponderance…

February 18th, 2008 | Category: Political Correctness, ROPMA, Terrorism

Sir – The Lord Chief Justice has overturned the convictions of five Asian men jailed for downloading and sharing terrorist literature (report, February 14) because there was nothing to show they had “terrorist intent” and it was not illegal to read or study such material.

Does this mean that the hundreds of people recently convicted of possessing child pornography should be acquitted?

I have no sympathy with either, but fair is fair.

Michael O’Hara, Barnsley, South Yorkshire

Like this guy I have no sympathy for either grouping but there does seem to be a politically correct double standard here that is both dangerous and foolish.

New Labour RIP?

February 18th, 2008 | Category: Envirofascism, Money, UK Politics

I have to say I agree with both Iain Dale and Guido (complete with cool graphic) about the whole Northern Rock debacle. The nationalisation of the bank is a further sign of Labour’s slide back to the 70s. When you add it to the daft non-dom laws that are to be introduced this government seems to have revived the playbook from the bad ole’ days of Labour. As a wag put it to me recently; I wonder if Labour would make so much fuss over a bank called Suffolk Banking?

An wobbly looking economy and the government wasting money bailing a bank out. What a foolish thing to do.

ConservativeHome has a good round-up of the Old Labour economics coming undone.

Will it surprise any of you, our clever readers, that London’s congestion charge has been a costly failure? I wonder if those that were so harsh on those of who thought it was a daft useless idea back before it was implemented?

A new sharia law controversy erupted last night over Government plans to issue special “Islamic bonds” to pay for Gordon Brown’s public-spending programme by raising money from the Middle East.

The timing of this announcement could not be worse for the government. Its just another example of the sycophancy from the Labour government towards Muslims in the UK. Where will it stop?

I Got A Girl

February 18th, 2008 | Category: Music

This was an attempt to simplify my lyrics, and I think it worked. What could be more basic than a love lust song trimmed down to “she” and “me.” And, um, “freckles.”

It also forced me to look at the song as a whole, and reduced the danger—in my case an all-too-common fault – of wandering off into la-la land in the later verses. It’s not unlike adhering to the rhyme and metrical schemes in that it imposes an internal structure to the song.

That said, I can think of enough counter-examples to invalidate it as the only way to write a song, but it is a useful exercise, to think of the lyrics as variations branching off a central unifying theme.

[Verse]

I got a girl
She she she she
She’s got freckles everywhere [rpt.]

Up and down her arms
Splashed across her breasts
I know this for a fact
I’ve seen that girl undressed

She she she she
Can squeeze so tight
Me me me me me me me
I’m doin’ all right [rpt.]

Wrapped up in her arms
How could one man be so blessed?
I know this for a fact
That woman is dangerous————————————————————————-

[Chorus]

She takes the money I make [rpt.]
————————————————————————-

[Instrumental]
————————————————————————-

[Chorus]
—————————————————————————
[Verse]

I’ve got a girl
She she she she
She’s got freckles
everywhere [rpt.]

Scattered on her back
Sprinkled on her nose
I know this for a fact
I’ve seen her with no clothes

Yeah, up and down her arms
Splashed across her breasts
I know that for a fact
I’ve seen that girl undressed
————————————————————————-
[instr., out]
