In anticipation. Update: I meant to come back to this to write my thoughts about Liverpool’s loss/win over the minnows that are Total Network Solution, but nothing. Nada. Not one spark of inspiration. Instead, I was engrossed in the annual saga of “Will he stay or won’t he?” that has involved every home-grown talent from […]
Sick f*cks. (via curious hamster and doctor vee) Nosemonkey, too, is well-angry. Although I wouldn’t go as far as placing ALL the blame on the damn BNP (but it would be a plus if there is a massive backlash against the bastards from the entire country), I would stick my neck out now and say […]
Watching a bit of C-Span to try to cure the insomnia. “We are united in our determination that our country will not be defeated by such terror but will defeat it and emerge from this horror with our values, our way of life, our tolerance and respect for others, undiminished.” –Tony Blair.

The Sharpener crew are organising a march: http://www.pledgebank.com/solidarity. I can’t be there, but encourage anyone who stumbles across this to join in. Show ’em who’s boss!

And Tim Worstall has a running log of responses on other blogs. More photos. My first response was to check the date. My brother is still on holiday at […]
Eh? Short post, at work. Will comment later (a whole day after the rest of the world!).
From BBC news: Bush rejects Kyoto-style G8 deal “If this looks like Kyoto, the answer is no,” he said in an interview with ITV’s Tonight With Trevor McDonald programme. “The Kyoto treaty would have wrecked our economy, if I can be blunt.” [snip] But he showed signs of coming into line with general world opinion […]
uknae of Mischief to Data has uploaded loads of photos of the march in Edinburgh, which I was very sorry to miss, although I sent P as my representative. Since I have the digital camera, he had to use a disposable film snapper, which means he won’t be uploading those photos anytime soon. In the […]
I know I said don’t mention the cricket a few posts ago, but I just had to put in my 2p worth. Bleeding neck! What’s wrong with Australia?! For that matter, what the [bleep] is wrong with England?! When I first woke up at 6am US Pacific time, Australia was all out for 196. First […]
