I have been engaged in extensive research and thought, that’s dangerous I’m better sedated. Wars are commonplace in some lands because some kind souls bestow something to war over.
Anyway onto my endeavors, I consulted a well-known maven on matters philanthropical. I visited her the other evening and chewed the fat over a Pimms, the gardens were in fine order but her neglect of her dirty and feral little retches continue to be anathema to me. We took out her telescope, the one that could study the needs of those it observed, but it appeared dysfunctional only working in very far off lands. She and it were unable to see the squalor prevailing closer to home, and its consequent effects on her charges. She appeared comforted with her compassion for those who were less fortunate than her but was unable to apply this to anything nearer than Africa.
We appear to have created a society that has no understanding of prudence. Nor a government with any idea of how the masses operate, and consequently no ability to resolve the imprudence issues, the ones they appeared to nurture in the first place. Ivorytowersville is never a wise place to pontificate from.
I’m not fond of this modern trend for literary brevity; it will surely lead to rioting in Grosvenor square and the death of quite admirable bombast.
MP arrested for doing his job: A symptom of our society I’m afraid, most already dare not stick their heads above the parapet for fear of totalitarian over reaction, possibly media instigated, mob mentality – a well and truly timorous and head pecked lot. If people don’t notice the continual rat-a-tat-tat on their heads, before long - if not already, the brain will be exposed and consumed with fervor. The media is as ridiculous as it is underhanded, we have created a nation unable to ever articulate their dissent without fear, instead apparently happy to herd.
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
(The Raven, E A Poe 1845)
I lost all my school friends when I moved away from the terrible place I was born in. I lost all my family as they lived in same terrible place, stuck in a land that time forgot. I visited once, the men in the working men’s club were still playing the same game of cribbage as when I left for University some years earlier. Perhaps they were waiting for me to return with my Pure Mathematics degree so that I could solve their scoring conundrum based on integer constructions of 15. It was an awful place, now what was it called, …………. The north!
I have spent a few weekends now hunting and gathering for festive presents, concluded at the weekend. Obligatory visit to Argos for pressies for people who remain un-catered for. What euphoria when your number is called out, like you won something or something - 007, YAY that’s me! I’ve been making my own Christmas wine, bloody office smells like a brewery, office is a brewery actually.
Russell Brand: The world is full of interfering nincompoops that need to get themselves a life that has something in it apart from spoiling everyone else’s. I bestow upon them a Muttley medal for their contribution to sanctimony. I agree Dave, so do I.
Menezes chapter 84: Some appear obsessed with dissecting all events surrounding one unfortunate incident; a simple error or a complex convoluted conspiracy theory? A free land I suppose admirably upholding the sanctity of life, ironically totally opposite to the nihilistic beliefs that are the keystone of the terrorism that perhaps begat the incident.
Can you say that? Well I suppose you did so you can say it, silly question I suppose. I think you may actually have a point, can I say that? Idiot you did.
Public announcement: All us people trying to get by and create a nice environment for ourselves to live in, and for our progeny to thrive in, apologise. We should have been completely feckless and not bothered about getting on and having like nice things, and certainly not doing what is best for our kids future. We shouldn't have eaten all the cake we should have known there would have been a bread shortage. It's our entire fault.
