3 Comments Posted by on May 21, 2011

The French like to get involved. At a national level they claimed there were no WMD’s in Iraq. They were called cheese eating surrender monkeys because of it and tragically French fries became freedom fries. I think it was initially on some French websites that people became suspicious about the wreckage on the lawn of [...]

toast is in bad condition owing to the boozing that comes at this time of year. I was at the depeche mode concert on thursday in the old point depot. There was a huge crowd and it looked like a lot of couples but the guys were a lot more interested than the girls. I [...]

There was a lot going on in Ireland lately: The term conspicuous consumption was introduced by economist and sociologist Thorstein Veblen in his 1899 book The Theory of the Leisure Class. Veblen used the term to depict the behavioral characteristic of the nouveau riche, a class emerging in the [...]

I met feensham and J-to-the-K last night in one of the cities less glamorous casinos which could in fairness mean any of them.

STOP WHINING!

Comments Off Posted by on July 20, 2009
