    The hat-trick

    They say famous deaths come in threes. Sadly, Felix Bowness died as well yesterday. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felix_Bowness
  2. Legalise drugs article.

    Taken from the New Scientist, fascinating article that I totally agree with. I know it's an age old topic on here but it's a slow day. Far from protecting us and our children, the war on drugs is making the world a much more dangerous place. SO FAR this year, about 4000 people have died in...

    Media overreaction - stories that were... well... rubbish

    I've been running my ever cynical eye over the goings on in our national media of late, and got into a heated debate with a few work folk the other evening regarding some of the big issues in the spotlight right now. A few seemed to have an immense amount of hatred for city bankers, Social...

    Question Smoking....do you or Don't you

    I was having a chat with a friend today about a further dramatic step in a decade-long campaign to curb the consumption of tobacco products by graphically depicting images on cigarette boxes. The pictures will include rotting teeth and lungs and throat cancer. The pictures will replace the...

    Commentary

    1. Weightlifting commentator: 'This is Gregorieva from Bulgaria. I saw her snatch this morning during her warm up and it was amazing.' 2. Dressage commentator: 'This is really a lovely horse and I speak from personal experience since I once mounted her mother.' 3. Paul Hamm, Gymnast: 'I owe...

    If The World Was A Village Of A 1000 People

    If we could reduce the world’s population to a village of precisely 100 people, with all existing human ratios remaining the same, the demographics would look something like this: The village would have 60 Asians, 14 Africans, 12 Europeans, 8 Latin Americans, 5 from the USA and Canada...

    Iraq/Afghanistan

    Ok, i will warn you now, this is gonna be a long post. It has all originated from a lengthy discussion i had today when i was at lunch with one of my best mates. He's just come back from his 2nd tour of Afghan and has done 1 tour in Iraq. He has been in the army 4 years, so pretty much has had 6...

    Ones right to die....

    After just seeing the Channel 4 news with a segment about a young 30 year old woman with a severe terminal illness and the start of her legal battle in the courts to grant her the legal right for doctors to give her the right to die with dignity I wanted to get others views on this very...
  13. TODAY'S TROUBLES.

    After waking up this morning expecting to see more news on CNN regarding Israel and Lebanon, i was unpleasantly surprised to see that the police in the UK had unfoiled a plot by a terrorist group to blow up a number of planes travelling from the UK to the States. So people if we hadn't been...

    Chuck Norris

    Chuck Norris used live ammunition during all shoot-outs. When the director said he can't, he replied, "Of course I can, I'm Chuck Norris" and roundhouse kicked him in the face. If you can see Chuck Norris, he can see you. If you can't see Chuck Norris you may be only seconds away from death...

    Bradford fire

    I think we should all take a couple of seconds out today & remember the 56 victims of the Valley Parade fire which was 21 years ago today. There was a memorial service held in Bradford earlier this morning. I remember seeing the live pictures coming in from their (title-winning IIRC) final...

    2006 Predictions

    I can see the following happeniong in 2006: In politics: A year of woe for the government as the economy slows, and unemployment starts to rise. Inflation will remain at around its current level. However, doubts will arise, as to Gordon Brown's suitability to take the helm from Tony Blair...

    Official site

    It&#39;s got an article on D and one says Deaths. Surely Mike North&#39;s death on the pitch was worthy a mention. Go on Tim&#33;
  20. Why are we still there?

    Why are we there? Enough is enough. It&#39;s time to reevaluate our involvement. Every day there are news reports about more deaths. Every night on TV there are photos of death and destruction. Why are we still there? We occupied this land, which we had to take by force, but it causes us...
