Out for a month.

hahaha...probably, funny thing is that was the conservative party attempt at "humanizing" Harper, the sweater and kitten have been the "butt" of jokes since then Any Canadians every invented anything or exported any kind of worthy culture?

The RBS was still paying a packet for his security too (before this happened). It's pretty true about steal* a £100 and you'll have the book thrown at you, steal £6,000,000 and you'll be fine. *incoming Rention about the definition of "steal"

That pic sure don't help your Canada ain't boring craic.

Isn't the passport office in Düsseldorf? They probably thought you were speaking in code. Or tongues. This was the core of the matter. If you pester hard enough they'll get one sent over from the Dorf and you can pick it up (I had it sent to the Consulate in Hamburg in the end). Well it's meant to be a service right?

They're all useless. When my bank/debit card was suspended because of suspicious activity before Christmas, the Barclays call centre drone went through about ten minutes of past transactions - "have you used a betting website called Paddy Power, sir?" "did you withdraw money in Beo... Bel... Beg... Serbia last May, sir?" - even though I'd already told him that I'd checked my online banking the previous weekend and everything was fine. Then it occurred to him to ask "did you pay £1,372 to Generic Company Name two days ago, sir?" What, you mean the day before my card was suspended? Did I try to pay £1,372 to a company I've never heard of, despite knowing that I had a current account balance of less than £500? Why no, sir, I did not. Fucking idiots. Nothing compared to the British Embassy in Berlin. Had to agree to join MI6 before the'd give me a new passport.

Very observant sweetie. I really like it. It's vast yet simple in its moment.

Failed to get into art college twice...

Got off lightly imo.

These need tracking down and shooting. Cunts.

Marlboro red is a mad fag to smoke.

In an email sent to local newspapers, the group called for bank bosses to be jailed and warned: "This is just the beginning". The attack saw the windows of Sir Fred's home, in Edinburgh's upmarket Morningside area, smashed, along with those of a dark-coloured Mercedes S600 saloon parked in the driveway. Sir Fred is understood to be abroad and the attack is believed to have been reported to police by a member of his household staff at 4.35am on Wednesday morning. Minutes afterwards, an email was sent by a woman using the name Moira McLeod and the address bankbossesarecriminals@mail.com. The email read: "Fred Goodwins house in Edinburgh, was attacked this morning. "We are angry that rich people, like him, are paying themselves a huge amount of money, and living in luxury, while ordinary people are made unemployed, destitute and homeless. "This is a crime. Bank bosses should be jailed. "This is just the beginning." Sir Fred was subject to heavy criticism after refusing to give up any of his £700,000-a-year pension, awarded after he stepped down following the disatrous acquisition of Dutch rival bank ABN Amro which saw RBS bailed out by the taxpayer. Good.

Bearing in mind current circumstances: Curbs.

EXCLUSIVE: At last some good news for Newcastle as Taylor's injury is not as bad as first feared By JOHN EDWARDS Last updated at 12:11 PM on 25th March 2009 Comments (0) Add to My Stories Battler: Toon defender Taylor Steven Taylor has given crisis club Newcastle a massive boost by sailing through a scan on his damaged ankle and setting his sights on their key relegation battle with Stoke. Newcastle chiefs were bracing themselves for losing their England Under 21 defender for the rest of the season after fearing he had torn ligaments in last Saturday's 3-1 home defeat by Arsenal. But he was given the all-clear late last night (Tuesday) after a scan showed he had suffered nothing worse than bruising. Taylor, raised on Tyneside and fiercely committed to the Newcastle cause, was said to be 'hugely relieved' and anxious to return to an increasingly uphill struggle for Barclays Premier League survival at the earliest opportunity. Has been immense the last few games.

...and lighters in student bars in Hamburg. I'm a smoker, but this doesn't feel right to me.

Well if you will live near Lange Reihe. Best coffee in town.

Just let me know when you want my mate at the drug licensing place to tell you who is trying to license what. $$$

Hamburg is turning me gay. FACT.

Do you have a pdf version you can send me? Not on me, but I could open the file in OpenOffice and generate one when I get home from work today. I wouldn't suggest you steal it though... the story is about an average joe office worker who with the assistance of a self-help guru, decides to realize his true calling of being a professional killer. It's sorta like The Office meets The Professional. PM me an email address. I'll shoot it to you tonight. Coming over.

Quite.

Do you have a pdf version you can send me?

Exactly. Wanks. You two clowns ever wondered why the U.S. was so sure Iraq had WMD's? What's that got to do with George Galloway supporting tyranic bastards who think nothing of mass genocide? Cause that is U.S. foreign policy (when it serves them). Stevie you especially disappoint me in the way you can't de-link England in your head from America's foreign escapades which do little or nothing for us and in the current case in Iraq is actually harming us. I always had you down as one of the free thinkers on this board. Man up for fuck sake. GG is a cunt and SH is a cunt, but the bigger picture is that we have been supporting these cunts around the world. Do you think I'm happy that we're perceived as America's dog. The fact is in a military sense, since Reagan was scuttling Thatcher (and I bet he was "I won't be long Dennis darling"), we have militarily stuck to them like glue, jumped when they said jump, and it's a fucking disgrace because there are few countries I would less rather be associated with in the world than those corrupt secretive materialistic bastards. The fact is until our foreign policy changes drastically we will sadly always be linked with them. Good to hear. My mental turmoil is this, I want an EU army with us and Germany leading it, but on the other hand I want to keep our economy one stage de-linked from the EU zone so we can stay competitive. The major problem with an EU army is the same as with a completely linked economy, that is it would be France pulling all the strings to their own benefit (how the hell they've got away with their latest car industry protectionism scam I've no idea). Bloody French!

All the west did was sell him arms to Iran, which he then ended up using on the perceived Western enemy Iran and eventually his own Iraqi people technically in Southern Kurdistan. By giving him these weapons did the west create the thought behind the monster. Was the west the engine the fuelled his vast torture chambers throughout Iraq. He was always a bad cunt, he would've found the weapons regardless if the west supplied them or not because he was one of the great cunts of our time, a paranoid bullying cunt, the weapons are almost secondary to the repression he put that country under with his iron fist and barbaric ways. Even if it was a bit of a stunt, which I certainly personally don't believe it was, the joy when he was toppled was captured beautifully when they were all stamping on the head of his statue. Anyone who gives Saddam Hussein a spor of respect, has about as much credibility as Mohammed Said al-Sahhaf. I'm not defending what he did Stevie. The Iran-Iraq war though, could be seen as an extention of the Cold War in the same way that many other conflicts were with one side backing one and the other backing the other. What it shows the is that we in the West are culpable in creating an environment in which someone like Saddam was later able to do the terrible things he did. Yet our governments would have you believe he's some evil monster that almost came out of nowhere and which it was our duty to destroy for the good of the world and the good of Iraq, when in fact we were acting as selfishly when we defeated him as we were when we armed him. I don't disagree with any of that, but if the west weren't arming him do you think he wouldn't be getting the arms from elsehwere? I think that point is irrelevant, USA are bastards everybody knows that, we do everything in our own interests, however I repeat, Saddam was barely human, that is the point, and the point is this media whore of a jock cunt that is George Galloway, typical Scottish Catholic conspiracy theorist that he is, is a disgrace to this country, and a disgrace to millions of Kurds throughout the region who have lost family members to this bastard who GG gives credance to. Impossible to say on the first point but the Soviet Union were arming their enemy so it's doubful. And it's totally relevant. Ironically the Soviet Union also helped arm Iraq. To a far lesser extent though, I'd guess. The point is, anyway, that in conflicts like this, countries not 'directly' involved, arm and provide help in other ways to the side they want to win. And this inevitably leads to a mess further down the line when said conflicts are resolved. Look at Afghanistan for another example. Plenty more as well. Word.

America's biggest fear is that Russia will join the Euro trading zone. And it might happen, business links between Germany and Russia are at their highest point in history.
