RE: blame

I have Co-directed an d Directed a medium Recycling Firm in a Westindian Nation for near 30 years.The amount of metals we recycled was immense.Iam proud of the record of that Firm and can stand tall in the face of anyone thinking we have not done enough to safe this planet.Does not mean,of course,that there is not plenty more to do.
But its never been good to rush things before being relatively sure the measures are going to work.
Never liked the thought of Polititians climbing on my Bandwagoon and Hijacking my Ideas,because thats always the Sign that nothing is going to get done,except Talk,Talk and more Talk.

RE: DRIVING UNDER THE INFLUENCE

RE: symbols of freedom

RE: the greatest ROCK band of all time.....

all the ones I used to love.And I have been around since Rock and Roll was Rock and Roll.

RE: Public Whacking...

RE: all these people in love. they make me sick

yes,it gets to you sometimes,but its definitely no cause for;Bah Humbug, Blah and other such things,no matter how lonesome and frustrated one might get.

RE: fuel

yep,looks like its getting time for Alternate Tranportation,like start Legging It again.
Would be nice to find a way,so those Oil-Guys have to drink their Stuff if they want to get rid of it.Probably just have to start to consume as little as possible of that Commodity. Something has to be done.

RE: What is your field of expertise?

Not very wise to start a Feud with you.

The "Lock them,fake them,take them out-Kind" of Stuff?

RE: Entry to USA

you're the most unusual Scotsman I've ever met.I've met quite a few Scots,and I got along well with them.
I am sorry to say that you don't sound like a Scot,but more like some of those Xenophobes I had the Displeasure to meet all over.

RE: Entry to USA

Me thinks,you need to worry just as much about yourself.

RE: Entry to USA

that's what is baffling me

RE: OJ Simpson

Exercise in Futility.

A Tale Of Two Dogs

Father and his small son while walking down the country road came upon two dogs who
were at it.
The boy asks his father what these two dogs are doing.Father is sort of embarrassed
so he tells him that it looks like one of the dogs injured his leg so the other dog
is helping him carrying him on his back.The little boy laughs and tells his father
that now he understands what people mean when they say"when you try to help somebody
they f..k you".

Such is Life.

RE: In God we trust?

so much for that "Omniscience"

RE: fuel

in a few more years you'll probably have to buy Tobacco as clandestinely as People have to buy Pot nowadays,judgeing from the trend in Government and Healthcircles.Its the New Prohibition.Protecting people from themselves as if they were children.
I smoked for almost forty years,then having to give it up for Healthreasons.
But why should I forbid an activity to someone just because Iam no longer able to.
Used to be called "Futter-Neid" when I was growing up here.
But that is Switzerland:"Everything not Compulsory is Verboten"

RE: fuel

I'd have said Biofuels a short while back,but it looks like the only way to get them is at the sufferance of the Multinationals and under their Conditions.
Unless someone there has a change of heart.(not holding my breath!).

RE: big drinkers

Got to be me,
managed to even drink my self under the Table on many Occasions.

serious thing though,had to give it up,so I suppose the Title is still up for grabs.Don't want it

RE: New - Tropical Island Adventure ...

hope someone thought about bringing a Powerplant,with all those Computers and Whatevers.Fuel too,or at least Solarpanels.

RE: the year 2012

or someone's been drinking an awful Lot of Beer.
Y'know,you drink three,then in the Restroom they become to at least five.

RE: the year 2012

Maybe the best thing that could ever happen to the 'Blue Planet'.A drop of CO2-Emissions to near Zero.

RE: OJ Simpson

that Fellow just can't stay on the Straight and Narrow it seems.
Maybe this time it will be the Wakeupcall.

Hope this time the whole "Show" will be a bit more down to Earth,istead another "Ringling Brothers" production.They ought to keep the Cameras out of the Coutroom as a matter of policy.
No one can get a Fair trial in a Media-Circus like the one last time.

Maynard G. Krebs in 'Dobie Gillis'
