You are wise indeed Sensei. I have 4 of them myself.

Well because...

Listening to shouty music with loud guitars, drinking beer and playing air-guitar in your underpants is a far superior way to spend a day. Not least because it doesn?t raise any difficult moral questions about the Swiss banking system.

What I don?t understand is why we don?t get to vote for the guy in charge of British foreign policy?

Here's another one. Actually recorded live on a cctv camera this afternoon. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=UJweDZXolrs&NR=1 This one too http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=mt9014lKH4Q&feature=related

Good form there. Landlord and Spitfire are good stock ales and Doom Bar is a good choice for an interesting guest ale. For personal preference only I would like to see a honeyed, golden ale as a guest now and then. Both of the main London breweries do one. Fullers do Honey Dew and Youngs do Waggle Dance (although I?m not sure if it is available on draught). Or why not try something from Badger, I always enjoy their beers and they do cask conditioned ales for those who like that kinda thing. I?m not sophisticated enough to tell the difference though.

I resent the insinuation that Aqua are anything other than seminal modern band with staying power, integrity and a lasting impact on world music.

If they have empty properties they may have to. It?s not like there is a shortage of places to let at the moment.

And of course the elephant-gun kept under the leather armchair with which to put pay to any telephone that dares to ring with anything work related whilst you are convalescing.

I had a flu jab a few weeks ago. I?m not telling my wife or my boss about it though. Just in case I need a little r&r time sitting around in a dressing gown and drinking medicinal infusions.

So you can?t just magic money into existence by moving it around in quite simple ways and then telling everyone that what you did was very complex and clever. You need to be producing something or offering a service to someone who is going to pay you for it. How much of the 25% of what the financial sector contributes/contributed is the former or the latter is a bit unclear to me.

Now, now Tony, considering all the half nekkid totty we get to gander at in modern advertising it is only fair that the ladies get some eye candy too. Well at least that?s what I told the judge that time. ?Is that so? said he, ?Well from where I?m sitting it is indecent exposure that that gets you 10 hours community service and an afternoon in the stocks? Equal rights indeed.

Those fellows can?t be Italian. I have a few Italian friends and for them to show that much bare skin would require the attention of more body hair waxing professionals than this world has to offer.

Perhaps they're all bus drivers on maternity leave.

We have always had trouble (we have an indoor aerial) Then about 4 months ago I got another aerial that worked perfectly until just recently it went all crap again.

I really wish graffiti artists would be more artistic.

Thing that gets me is that the people whooping at a burning effigy are probably the same kind of people who will bang on about how Britain ?civilised? the world.

You can get ointment for that you know.

Listen folks the justice system, the police, courts, gaols et al, are the civilised equivalent of the angry mob. We put them in place so that the ?mob? has some kind of consistency and we can all get about our business. If however it isn't working properly then it is for us to set it right. Not by forming a new angry mob but by fixing the ones we already have.

What? Are they building another pub on the upper east side then?

The drinks are on the 1st Friday of every month. If we start straying from the rules it will be chaos I tell you, chaos! Sorry I suppose comment should be reserved for those who have actually attended the last few booze ups. *skulks off*

According to Bill Hicks won?t it be about now that the captains of US industry have BO sat in a little room, showing him their own private and unreleased film of the Kennedy assassination and posing the question, ?So Mr President, what are your policies going to be then?? Sorry if your clip says something similar Sean but I can't watch it right now.

Quite poignant considering the manic British interest in American politics http://www.mg.co.za/article/2008-11-04-the-art-of-lying (this may have also been published in the Guardian but I can?t be bothered to look)

And why was that hmmm?. Was it for the way it highlighted man?s inherent fear of that which is different or perhaps for the acting talents of the great Tom Hanks?
