Long time no Blog and all that. Iraq Stuff Everyone is gay. Well, that seems to be the current theme. Saddam Hussein is gay and we all know about Blair and Bush (nicked, without shame, from Mitch). The situation in Iraq is still "fluid" as reporters like to say. US troops are still meeting resistance. The press alleges that the Iraqi attackers are "loyal to Saddam Hussein". They're not terrorists, these are people who don't want to become the 51st state. 1,300 US soldiers entered Falluja to stamp out Iraqi opposition in that area, they left the next day after making just 7 arrests. Estimated number of civilian deaths during the assault on Iraq:- Min 5534 Max 7207 Bush has also decided (because no one needs to be consulted on these matters) that most major ports in Muslim Middle East countries whoudl have US inspectors to monitor and check all shipping. US inspectors are to be stationed at strategic locations. They include Dubai, a hub for shipping in the Persian Gulf. Also taking part are Malaysia and Turkey, both with predominantly Muslim populations. The move was announced by US Director of Homeland Security Tom Ridge: "The basic premise behind each of these elements is very clear. We extend our zone of security outward so that American sea ports and borders become the last line of defence, not the first. All your questions answered :- A WARMONGER EXPLAINS WAR TO A PEACENIK So paranoid am I about an attack while I sit at home (those nasty Arab types are after all of you, you know?!), that I'm searching for comfort by installing a new Firewall. It's seems to be doing a good job; no hacks or attacks (or so it tells me). Best check out this site, before there's nothing left. For those of you who like comic book and film art, check out Craig Mullins' site Bike Stuff Nice little intro into the world of MotoGP (just how poor is that accent, Ewan?) Even if you're not into bikes, its worth watching , just to get an insight into one of the most exciting and dangerous sports going (in my opinion ;-] ) On a sad note, we found out this weekend that a friend and member of the Sportsbiker crew was killed last Thursday whilst out on his bike. Tezza was only 21. His brave girlfriend worked her way through his mobile phone to tell his friends. We don['t know what happened, just that a car was involved. God rest his soul. Special mention to must go to Jim Moodie. Not only did he have the balls to get back on his bike after what could have been a fatal accident, but, when he got back from the Isle of Man, he took the time to e-mail all of his well wishers. Top rider, all round nice guy. Other Stuff Another Hallmark Holiday means I get a double Led Zep CD, a very large slab of Toblerone dark and a card! Talking of presents and cards, don't forget to wish Weebl and Bob "Happy Birthday" Is anyone suprised at the recent announcement that Homer J Simpson has been voted the Greatest American?  |
