Sorry for wasting your time.

I've just caught this program for the first time.

Bl**dy hilarious! How refreshing it is to see a 'comedy' show on TV (obviously a blatant parody of "HIGNFY') that is not governed by strict rules of censorship and political correctness.
It's just funny.
Witty, intelligent people taking the mickey out of everythng and everybody in a clever, quick and humourous way.
Just funny.
No political point-scoring, no racial offense, no homophobia - pure and simple funny.

Can't we all just lighten up and accept some things are just meant to be funny and don't mean any more or less than that?

Here's a pointy thing.
North Korea explodes a nuclear bomb (or do they?) which is about as clear a declaration as you can get that they have 'weapons of mass destruction'.
The US went to war with Iraq because they suspected Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction.

Why haven't they declared war on North Korea?
Is there no oil in North Korea??

I'm sorry, I haven't a clue. It's probably not as simple as that.
Though apparently only 8% of American citizens own a passport...

OK, explain these.

An unusual day yesterday.
During lunchtime, I decided to go onto eBay (where I don't have an account and have never bought anything...) just to see what John Foxx material was being sold at the moment.
Among all the usual picture disc vinyl and limited edition prints is a bootleg CD recorded at Crewe on the first night of the recent tour.

I think its really Bad Form when people try to sell things like this.
Its illegal, isn't it? I know bootlegging generally is disapproved of, but the compromise seems to be that for trade and personal use only its acceptable.
I persuaded Ian to buy it for me to get it out of circulation this way, and then emailed the seller myself with abig rant about the ethics of it all.
It arrived this morning - good quality, and with the only version of "From Trash" they played.

How did I know it was going ot be there to make me go to eBay in the first place?

And in the evening, I'm cycling home from work and decided to go round the bridge rather than over it just for a change.
I went down the road and over the railway line where a group of people were huddling around to look at something beside the track.
It's a swan, wandering about the road looking very confused. Nobody helped.
So I just got off my bike and escorted through the crowd back to the river back through a hole in the fence.
Arm round a swan? How weird, it was a little aggressive at first but they don't peck hard and like cats if you stand your ground they just accept that yo ua re there.

Fun, and a bit surreal.
But why did I go that way??

cos your love
Shines free
Moves me
In mysterious ways…
