I'll bite back. That Muslim terrorist, inspired by Islam, trained, armed and encouraged by other Muslims to "fight" for a very Islamic cause. Decent Muslims tried to stop him, many others will have applauded him.

Aye, I was going to ask when they put mirrors on the tube.
-
I'm in bits here watching that. RIP

Anyone know how much it would cost to fit air-conditioning to a modest size 3 bedroom semi whch already has a now disused dry air venting system? I don't care if it 2 weeks every other year - this is fucking ridiculous heat.
-
Lass at work with thin pink blouse and black bra - nice in a "haven't you got any mirrors at home" way.

A heart is a higher priority.

I get the tube (two stops being a lazy bastard) at about 7:40 and it wasn't too bad this morning - a bit early for suits so mainly manual workers who at least know what a T-shirt is. I'd also repeat my comments from previous years about office workers wearing shorts on the train - they really do look daft.
-
Looked up that Sense8 and found its created by the same bloke who did Babylon 5 so I'll definitely try it.
-
It looked to me like an Ernest Saunders style convenient diagnosis. Anyone else see Adam Hills' rant on The Last Leg? Quality.

Been to many festivals. Stadiums and arenas - I've noticed a level of tech for bands like U2 but its still a miniscule element - I know they're disliked but they reach audiences by music and rapport (and I'd tell Bono to drop all the superfluous shit if I ever met him). I've never been to Glastonbury but I've been to Reading and V several times each. Funnily enough the best headliners I've ever seen in terms of energy, music, engagement and all round being blown away were Suede.

I've never came away from a gig talking about the lighting rig. Sounds like people are desperate to find something positive to say. I don't like the genre, don't know his music and couldn't even name any of his songs so don't know if he was good by his or general standards but the desperation to be positive by people who told us it was wrong to criticise his inclusion and that he would own it or whatever the right phrase is is hilarious.

It's a shame its Tunisia as that was the only place that came out of that Arab Spring bollocks any better off. On one hand I think it shows how European tourist are in a way oblivious to the places they visit but on the other the only hope for a lot of these places is to be "corrupted" by tourism and visitors IMO. I completely accept that western intervention has stirred the shit bucket but that doesn't mean Islam should be allowed to avoid censure for being fucked up.

Switched backed to Download after ten seconds watching this West bloke. Never liked Slipknot but still infinitely better.

I'm a science zealot but I agree with you on this. Dismissing stuff that is deadly for hundreds of thousands of years with vague notions of future technology to cope with it or just literally burying it is fucking madness. And that's without the threat of the actual plants going tits up.

Great mood. I was suffering with a nasty cold when I came back from holiday last week which caused one of my ears not to pop from the flight due to the tubes being full of gunk. That meant a week of discomfort and fuzzy hearing which was a right pain. I went to the docs on Friday and he prescribed this device which is basically a balloon you shove up your nose and either blow up or use to pass air up there. It didn't seem to be working but as the problem seemed to be worse yesterday I gave it a really good go before bed last night and the fucker finally popped. I think there's a little bit left in there as its not quite right but I finally feel human again.

Billionaire's daughter as well. (JDL that is )

I'm starting to read your posts in the style of Oz, Stevie - I'm sure you're channelling him more and more
-
I've made my disrespect for religion as a whole very clear on here but I still can't get over how fucked up it is that they think it's okay to carry concealed guns in a church of all places. As i've said before I have sympathy for the bereaved families but the nation as a whole can take its crocodile tears and fuck off as far as I'm concerned.
-
Imagine how much it will make those cunts twist that they aren't considered a trophy winning team by nothing players.
-
Horrible crime but I can see some legal twisting required leading to that awful phrase as mentioned by Cath. I'd have no problem with calling this murder but that would open a can of worms regarding abortion and viability limits - of course 32 weeks is way beyond viable but if it had been 20 weeks say then it gets more complicated. Again I'd be happy to argue there's a difference between a consesual procedure and deliberate "destruction" but it's a hard one.
-
I used to work with a lad who was Muslim lite who told me his childhood experience of it was it being worse when in summer but I didn't realise until this year how wide the range was - I thought the earliest it got was september. You would think those that have moved to more northern climes (I read there are some in Scandinavia who are completely fucked) would lead to more questioning Allah's plan but they probably just see it as a bigger challenge.
-
He'll probably say he wouldn't have changed a thing but I'd ask him if there's one thing he could have done in hindsight in 95/96 to make it happem, what would it have been.
-
Well I'm not posh enough but I have a job in the City. I think it works differently for skilled/experienced/techy jobs but even in a pretty laid back/diverse company like the one I work for, I can see the traits suggested in the graduate hiring programme.
-
I read The Dirt (Motley Crue story) on holiday. I don't think it's as completely OTT as made out but still a very good and very human story
-
Aye I've seen some horrific Teutonic saggies this week but tend to not count them as part of this debate.
