Don't mention the economic depression.

Poll I am thinking of marketing some smiley face badges with the titular words inscribed. Surprising that the Tories have not already done so. ZaNuLabour missed out on the somewhat longer "Don't mention internment without trial, illegal DNA databases and daft identity cards". I am still absurdly happy about having been in "The Independent" on Saturday.

ranting and raving

We sell Arabs lots of weapons. Most of them have much more money than we have. Arab League wanted something to be done about the situation in Libya so "we" should have encouraged them to take the situation in hand.

For western powers to attack Libya seems wrong on many counts including : it is none of our business, it is treating others like children to be dominated, it looks like colonialism, it is the white man taking over the affairs of the coloured, it is an economic hazard when we are already broke, it looks like they are only doing it because of oil, they have not intervened in other crises, what will happen if Syria revolts, they could easily cause historic damage (see my blog), innocents will probably be killed, Gadaffi can potentially get more support on his side by using the situation to his advantage, and so on and so on and so on.

Innocents are always killed. It boils down to which bastards one removes. I see no intervention in Burma, North Korea or Equatorial Guinea.

Looks like I'll have to work a lot harder to get a mention in the Indy... It may also help if my blog and comments had some sort of point to them too :)

Congrats on the mention, Mr B :)

They call me Mr R!

Dear Mr D, Thank you, I am still hugging myself in a self congratulatory haze. As to the "point" of a blog - many top bloggers are into confessional blogging "I had toast for breakfast, wife was in bad mood etc" and get mega hits. This is the 1st step in my plan for world domination. As a loyal reader I'll appoint you Commissar for er something. Best Wishes, Mr R!

Confessional blogging eh?

I'm not sure there's anything I'd want to confess to the blogiverse O_o My next blog entry is about a Halogen Oven and Things I've Put In It. The non-stop excitement of my rock'n'roll lifestyle may be too much for most I guess...

I'll put something more interesting up in due course. Probably.

Your selling yourself short Dogs! It is the blogosphere, not blogiverse BTW! You could be the bloggerati par excellence on stuff what goes in ovens...
