    German Elections 2009

    I know, darling, as you can see from the sentence preceding that one. That's the only part of US politics that I'm jealous of: the fact that believe it or not, party politics is much, much worse in the UK then it is over the pond. Also, Labour won a landslide victory in 1997, as well as winning...

    German Elections 2009

    Dear. God. Oh, my. The Lib Dems never prove themselves, do they? They came through the expenses scandal without too much damage, at least not compared to Labour or the Tories. They could show that they had what it takes to govern properly, yet they faff and they show themselves as empty...

    Can we get a few measurements of the drive? Weight and dimensions. :)

    Tiananmen Square, 20 years later

    Well, we've all got wood and nails, right? I guess I meant modern in the sense that it's now as easy as pressing a button or whispering a general's ear. But in hindsight, trying to think of a leader throughout all history that hasn't been involved in murder on some scale is making my head...

    Guess that'll teach you for underestimating the Minister, punk. :P :) In other news, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is a damn good movie. Val Kilmer is especially brilliant. Watch it! All of you! /end-coffee-fuelled-hysteria

    Maiden Collection

    Something that royally sucks: Last Wednesday, the first time in years that I've used public transport - I left a chunk of my Maiden collection on a bus. I had it in a wallet to transport it and I left it on a seat. Have been calling all week to get it back to no avail. :( All this coffee is...

    Tiananmen Square, 20 years later

    Well, we all have our bad days, Onhell. :bigsmile: I agree though. No leader is pure and every leader has blood on their hands. Modern leadership is marked by the ability for a modern leader to be able to drag the option for war off of a shelf. Not to mention the ability to order someone's death.

    NOW READING

    I am re-reading Jonathan Safran Foer's Extremely Loud And Incredibly Close right now. I found it behind my bookcase and was eager to give it another go. I'm a big fan of his writing (His first novel Everything is Illuminated is among my favourite books of all time) but when I first read it, I...

    Tiananmen Square, 20 years later

    Is "relativate" similar to juxtapose or compare? I'm not familiar with the word. To build on Foro's point here, although the extent of Stalin's brutality far far outweighs Lenin's, Lenin was still responsible for the "Red Terror" and the murders carried out by the Cheka. Lenin can be portayed...

    Global Hard Drive

    I like SMX's suggestion, but isn't the whole integrity of the plan based around the journey the drive will take, as well as the fact that we're file-sharing via the postal system?

    Watched a brilliant film by a theatre company called DV8 called "The Cost of Living" today. Absolutely fantastic, just one big extended physical metaphor attempted to show the issue of division and differences. It was wonderful. Ridiculously well choreographed and I recommend to all! I also...

    Flight 666 game... HIGH SCORES PLEASE!

    Welcome!  :) I haven't actually had the time or patience to play it. I don't like that sort of easy flash game. I regret that now. I intend to play it when I've got time. Are you new to the forums, Bellaroo? A former lurker?
