Wassup 2008 style, keep it real!

 

 Hopefully, the folks on the otherside of the pond also want change, by the looks of it, the do.

Nov 4: Bad translations

One just wonders if they got a translater for getting the meaning in context. It may be perfect, it may be good for concentrations, it also may be a camp for the olympics. But putting those 3 words together just sends out the wrong message, so wrong, from a country we know still has these camps.

Just bad translation.

Sep 27: Red Arrows at the 2012

The world-famous Red Arrows have been banned from appearing at the 2012 London Olympics because they are deemed "too British".

Organisers of the event say that the Arrows military background might be "offensive" to other countries taking part in the Games. The display team have performed at more than 4000 events worldwide, but the Department of Culture, Media and Sport have deemed the display team "too militaristically British". Red Arrows pilots were said to be "outraged", as they had hoped to put on a truly world class display for the Games, something which had never been seen before. Being axed from a British-based event for being "too British" is an insult - the Arrows are a symbol of Britain

The Red Arrows have been excellent ambassadors for British overseas trade, as they display their British-built Hawk aircraft all over the world.

The Arrows performed a short flypast in 2005 when the winning bid was announced, but their flypast at the Games was to have been truly spectacular.

It is to be hoped that common sense prevails

Sep 24: Dilbert #125654

Well, as mentioned somewhere before, I'm a fan of Dilbert. There are times when the great Scot Adam comes up with something that is, you know, just rings a true note.

Check the image....

Dogbert for President

So, best ignore pollsters as they know nothing.

Aug 9: A WISE OLD MAN

One thing can be said, with reference to global warming and our role (Humans) in it can be understood, Even the native Indians a long time ago knew we had screwed up.

Just read on....

 
A few years ago someone browsing through the 40th Anniversary Issue of Reader's Digest (dated Feb. 1962) came across this reprint from the Washington News and found it quite interesting in light of our current debates.
 
The quote reads:
 
Vice President Lyndon Johnson received the following message from a Native American Indian Chief on a reservation:  "Be careful with your immigration laws.  We were careless with ours."
 
Native American Observation Recently an old Indian chief sat in his hut on the reservation, smoking a Ceremonial pipe and eyeing two U. S.  Government officials sent by the President to interview him.
 
"Chief Two Eagles" asked one official, "You have observed the white man for 90 years.  You've seen his wars and his technological advances You've seen his progress, and the damage he's done."
 
The Chief nodded in agreement.
 
The official continued, "Considering all these events, in your opinion, where did the white man go wrong?"
 
The Chief stared at the government officials for over a minute and then calmly replied, "When white man found the land, Indians were running it.  No taxes, no debt, plenty buffalo, plenty beaver, women did all work, medicine man free, Indian man spent all day hunting and fishing, all night having sex."
 
Then the chief leaned back and smiled.  "Only white man dumb enough to think he could improve system like that."

 

See, total fools we were, and one could say, that the current  US Government still don't listen to wise old men. Mad old men yes, not wise ones

May 21: Well, anything goes

Well, don't know if this a lost in translation issue, or it's a genuine offer to the Belgian male votes, don't know what the woman will say, suffice to say, this person has a hell of a neat way to get votes.

Here's the snappy of the politician in question hoping to get in to the Belgian senate, her name is Tania and she represents the NEE party

Here she is:

Anything goes
Click image to see full size

 And this is what she has to say...

I am the leading NEE party senate candidate in Belgium. And due to popular demand, I will give 40,000 blowjobs to anyone who requests one on this page.

It started with our response to incredible claims that were made by other parties in Belgium, several parties promised new job opportunities in ridiculous amounts. We responded with a parody campaign for which I posed naked and promised our voters 400.000 new jobs.

Source

 I suppose she has something to offer, but somehow I don't think she will be able to honour all the blowjobs! So, she could get done under the trade description act. Not sure that they have that in Belgium!

Apr 21: Wrong place at the wrong time

So said Bush, at the memorial cermony at Viginia Tech? No, They were in the right place, in their classes, in college, doing what helps to make the US a greater place? Yes, Mr Bush, it's you who put your stupid big foot in your village idiot gob.

I suppose you come up with the same statement with Soldiers you sent to Iraq? Well, The sooner you leave the safer the world will become, you poodle buddy Blair is leaving his desk in under 2 months, and most likely after a disaster for the labour party in the May elections. Incidently, England, is one of those places where you don't really know that elections are if you are just passing through, It seems to be a very hush hush affair, some leaflets sent to you, no big meetings, no big debates. Anyway, enough on that. I'm just happy that Blair will be gone soon, mind, I don't think I'm gonna think much of the Next guy, A certain Mr Brown.
