  1. A grand total of 15 posts & 1 hour & 50 minutes until the first name calling. Well done and thanks, you just won me dinner at the Curry Cabin.
  2. Whoa there, Bob, you're apportioning blame, that won't go down too well around these parts!
  3. The post is mine, the implication is yours, people. I didn't blame Islam for what happened on 11th September 2001, in fact I didn't blame anyone.

Your discomfort is not my doing.

If it offends you I can only suggest that you report it and let admin deal with it/me. :-S
  6. If it is I'm sure they'll move it. Why don't you ask them to?
  7. Good match yesterday, India vs. Sri Lanka, fine cricket, England could learn something from it, or maybe not!
  8. Up in Annie's room, in the oil bottle, behind the clock. Meaning, I don't know where it is, you're too lazy to look for it and I'm not going to.
  9. When I got married, my Mum said,"that woman couldn't fry a sausage". Is that you Jemima?
  10. 'A convict who complains about the unfairness of his or her trial is less likely to succeed on Appeal, since they are challenging the integrity of the legal system'.... Where does this come from? Have you anything factual, Hal, or is it all 'most likely'? If someone said to me, "well, I've recieved 26 years for my crime, the trial was conducted correctly and was fair", I'd be inclined to take that as an admission of guilt. Surely it's the sentence she's appealing having resigned herself to the fact.

Huguenot Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > They certainly appear more informed than Y'man ;-) Yes, well, I only live here (Netherlands) helping to care for the elderly on a part time basis. And watched in horror, complaining bitterly, at how my own Father was treated in an English residential care facility. What could I possibly know from experience that is more relevant than a claim in a published book! I stand down, put in my place by those who think from afar.
  12. Yes. The right to die is as important as the right to live. I demand that right. No idea who claims that 'Legalised euthanasia has led to a severe decline in the quality of care for terminally-ill patients in Holland' but it's incorrect. If you want to see a severe decline in the quality of elderly care, you'll need to look closer to home, The UK is probably the worst in Europe.
  13. Quoting Knox in The Telegraph today, "I received a fair trial" and "it was conducted correctly". As she was found guilty and sentenced to 26 years, is this not admitting guilt?
  14. According to The Administrator, 'Troll' is an acceptable name to call someone. For if it weren't, "maybe we will give them detention or tell their parents". Were it that name calling was kept where it belongs, in the playground but ho hum, here's to mentality 21st Century style. I'll get back to you on that MP, when I have time and if I'm allowed!
  15. My opinion runs thus:- Religion does not exist, per se. What does exist is a wholly illogical breakdown of our cerebral capabilities, this causing a blindness to reality and a compound of forced indoctrination, weakness, gullibility and sadness. One's personal beliefs are neither here nor there as far as I'm concerned but what this world really needs is an absolute separation of what can be proven and what cannot; reality vs. superstition. The personal beliefs of some should not influence or affect the lives of others.
