Wise words mrs mum http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/If_I_Did_It

Business as usual wouldn't apply to anybody other than him. I agree in his time he was a pop genius and it is that that allows most folk to ignore the inconvenient truth - but settling out of court for $22 million is hardly the actions of an innocent party however dubious and reprehensible the Chandler family might have been. Like others have said the rich can buy 'justice' and when you have a African American 'hero' to boot thrown in it was very unlikely that the mud would ever stick. If he'd had lived in the UK and had the police seize his computers he would most probably be doing time al la Jonathon King or Gary Glitter. What sticks in my craw will be the fawning adulation of 100,000?s at the 02 that 'celebrate' this man - they should know better. They are bailing him out.

use babelfish and pretend you're clever .. I did http://babelfish.yahoo.com/ e.g How dare they to come here while taking our wives and our job, grappant our so noble English culture with its fingers has which puent of l' garlic while forceant has our kids to eat the meat of horse. The only good thing of the French culture is May 68. Dirty hippys.

Yeah thought the same too about ticket sales - wish I'd got some now to flog on for a profit ! What's creepy is the indifference others have to this (see the other thread on tickets) if I'd started a thread on the rehabilitation of GG imagine the rightful abuse I would have got. From the web Two jurors on Michael Jackson's child abuse case claim they fear they have let a "paedophile" back on the streets. Eleanor Cook and Ray Hultman - who are both writing books on the trial - have alleged they were pressured into acquitting the superstar by 10 of the other jurors, and they have spoken out for the first time on America's MSNBC show. When asked by host Rita Cosby if the other jurors would be angry with them for making the claims, Cook, 79, replied: "They can be as angry as they want to" "They ought to be ashamed. They're the ones that let a paedophile go." She added: "I just really think Jackson is a danger to young boys" "It breaks my heart to even think about him being around young boys" Meanwhile, Hultman, 62, claims the star-struck jurors who pressed for a not guilty verdict refused to look at the evidence properly, saying: "The thing that really got me the most was the fact that people just wouldn't take those blinders off long enough to really look at all the evidence that was there" However, the other jurors have hit back at Cook and Hultman's allegations - saying they are only trying to promote their new books. Juror Susan Rentschler told America's New York Daily News newspaper: "They've really changed their tune I don't know about Ray, but I think Elly wants attention and she's trying to sell a book. "Ray actually came over to the 'not guilty' side pretty early on He realised that he could not convict Michael Jackson on his personal feelings alone" Meanwhile, Jackson's lawyer, Thomas Mesereau, has also slammed Cook and Hultman's claims. He told America's New York Post newspaper: "They're embarrassing themselves, they're embarrassing the system. These people voted not guilty ? Judge Melville looked at them in open court and said, 'Is this your verdict?' and they said, 'Yes'"

pourquoi pas le Fran?ais foutu se cassent juste de nouveau ? baiser la France

Thanks the fantabulous dulwichmum the world's gone mad perhaps that's why we're in the state we're in.

Can anyone explain the moral difference between the convicted and imprisoned Leader of the Gang who has served his time and is hounded wherever he goes and the saintly Prince of Pop who paid millions more than once to pay off families of his abused child friends and now has sold 850,000 tickets for his residency at the O2 later in the year. Jackson may have been cleared on charges of child molestation, but the details that emerged at his trial four years ago paint a picture of a deeply perverted man. One whole section of evidence was devoted to the pornography he kept at Neverland, inluding two books featuring pictures of naked young boys and DVDs called Barely Legal. Stinks to me but many colleagues and friends who are going to see him think different and are uncomfortable when I bring it up. Am I missing something here ?

As my father always said where you last left them !

Using google chrome had few if any problems I can remember - IE seems very dated in comparison.

Strangely enough I've made a video about it ...

This is a quote from the Buddha - so comes from good heritage.

Can't download but there are 2 million tracks - haven't searched and not found one to date and the quality is crystal clear - like make your own radio station with occasional ads interuppting the stream.Sadly though contains a lot of BONO and U2 but nothings perfect.

My video tribute to this thread ...

That was VERY funny giggirl and thanks for sharing your personal journey deep into the heart of darkness that is NOBO. I feel that this thread has been a shining light in the darkness and paradoxically to hate NOBO is to love so many good things - we are not nihilistic, uncaring human beings who rant for our own demented pleasure - no it is precisely because we care and seek the truth that informs our passion to denounce false idols. This generation faces a rapid decline in optimism, living standards and hope and will turn to anger when they realise how there future has been squandered by the greed of a generation and its politicians ? NOBO stands at the apex of creepy sucking up to those in power and despite his fine words his deeds condemn him as just another money grubbing , power hungry ,messianic guitar playing mega-rich faux Oirish despot. Once rock was genuinely transgressive and anti-authority ? but attending a White House prayer breakfast with Georg Bush radical he aint. I heard a story that NOBO approached Michael Eavis to headline at Glastonbury but when the great and saintly Michael (now there is a true self-effacing hero of our age) told him how much they could pay that was it - off goes NOBOin a huff (and consider all the profit from Glasto goes to good cause like Oxfam and Water Aid ) ? you can?t buy credibility and you can?t fool the good people of East Dulwich. Less we forget he is a tax avoider and partner in a private equity fund ? now READ ON for he is an Anti-Christ sent to deceive and confuse the meek with false tongues .. Product Red, styled as (PRODUCT) RED, is a brand licensed to partner companies such as American Express, Apple Inc., Converse, Motorola, Gap, Emporio Armani, Hallmark, Microsoft, and Dell. It is an initiative begun by U2?s front man, Bono, and Bobby Shriver of DATA to raise money for the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria. Bobby Shriver has been announced as the CEO of Product Red, whilst Bono is currently an active public spokesperson for the brand. So that would give the impression that they?d be raising a whole heap of money for those starving brown children, right? Well, they?re certainly ready to spend the money on making sure that you know that they?d love to help those starving brown children! Allow those at Advertising Age to warm the cockles of your heart. By any measure, the buzz has been extraordinary and the collective marketing outlay by Gap, Apple and Motorola has been enormous, with some estimates as high as $100 million. Gap alone spent $7.8 million of its $58 million outlay on Red during last year?s fourth quarter, according to Nielsen Media Research?s Nielsen Adviews. So how much money has all this spending on advertising managed to net for the people who actually need it? Yeah. Not so much. So you?d expect the money raised to be, well, big, right? Maybe $50 million or even $100 million. Try again: The tally raised worldwide is $18 million. Apparently you people aren?t buying enough iPods to save the world. I suggest investigating BuyLessCrap.org. They have this crazy notion that rather than but something you don?t need so that they can give a sliver of the profits as a donation, you might be helping more by, oh, I don?t know? donating. Join us in rejecting the ti(red) notion that shopping is a reasonable response to human suffering. We invite you to donate directly to the (RED) campaign?s beneficary The Global Fund and to? other charitable causes? without consuming. Say? that?s just crazy enough to work!

On their site they say they have fixed this.

Have to add its the best internet app ever - it's like having an infinite record collection at your fingertips - what's the catch - well there's ads on the free version but I am not watching them its running in the background and they are probably trying to hook you for a limited period as a free user - but I can't see anything about it being time limited.

Just read about a streaming music app in the Times called Spotify and its awesome - currently free and allows you to listen to just about anything ever recorded streming and in high quality. Non comprende - currently listening to Peter Green - the greatest guitarist ever. Can't recoomed this highly enough and its done with the co-operation of the record companies. Huh ? http://www.spotify.com

Thanks antjen - got a lot more with Robert Peston and Daleks which coincided with my nervous breakdown last year. Roger Waters like Coldplay is one of my guilty secrets - I love him but he can be a bit naff Radio Kaos anyone ?

Oops - assumption is the mother of all f***ups - apologies are you a ms ?

Here is the vid wot I made on this subject ...

Good keep the hate burning bright - MAKE BONO HISTORY Check this out the great family man and moralist ...

DD - agree with you there - not all complementary therapies are Snake Oil.

Mr Dreadlocks - please keep on message tis a thread for the haters of Mr David Hewson - we are doing this for the kids and the good of the planet. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e236WjdLBcE&feature=related

It's the most powerful drug known to man - a placebo and a caring practitioner - but you'll have to believe for it to maybe work. It is thought that up to 70% of illnesses are psychosomatic so there?s a great scope for belief based medicine. Sadly for me I don't believe - John Diamond the husband of Nigella Lawson wrote a great book when he was dying called Snake Oil. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Snake-Other-Preoccupations-John-Diamond/dp/0099428334

Snorky fan here - though he does seem to spend a bit too much time here ..oi get back to work ... http://www.snorkyspizzeria.com/
