Nice to have you back briefly :P I know what its like with exams so don't worry just post here when you can.

anywya this is the poem I mentioned. Haven't got a name for it/ Its not exactly a one mnute wonder ( more of a half hour one) but I haven't sat agonising for horus with it.

Ten green leaves hanging from a branch
Ten green dancers just lazing about
Wind picks up and sways them around
Ten green leaves hanging off the ground

One green arrow flying through the air
Launched at great speed with zero care
Little green leaf is no longer there
There’s still nine leaves hanging on the tree

Wind picks up. Blow them about.
One leaf dances round and round
Jumps off his seat, twirls in the air
Now there are only eight leaves there.

One more falls when the rain starts to come
Knocked about by the dampening drum
Little green leaf has lost the plot.
Runs off on his own and now there’s seven left

One more feel by the wayside that night.
Plucked out by a beak that was building a nest
One more down how many left?
Six more leaves for a potential nest

Now there’s five leaves hanging on the branch
Then one turns into a Giraffes lunch.
Poor little leaf, He didn’t stand a chance
Now there’s only fives leaves hanging on the branch.

You’d think by now they might have learned.
To move away when the wind turned
But still they remained, still they sat
One more gone and that’s that.

Four green dancers swaying in the wind
Now there’s three as the others lose a friend
It’s that evil, cunning wind again.
Three green dancers, swaying in the rain

Three green leaves in the autumn noon
Another one’s going to be leaving soon
Poor little leaf blown up to the top.
Two little leaves that haven’t buggered off

Two leaves left that turn orange gold.
Two brave dancers, ever so bold.
One falls off. Dead. Plop.
One golden dancer left for the chop.

One golden leaf surviving form the start
One golden leaf swaying side to side
Loses grip, falls right off
Floats down gently, ever twirling

No green dancers left for the hurling

If so, YOU ARE NOT ONE OF US and you MAY NOT participate in this gathering of well-meaning individuals. Disobeying this simple demand will result in harsh penalties. HARSH. PENALTIES. Harsh penalties may or may not involved honey-covered paddles and may or may not degrade and humiliate you, your family, your school crush that you'll never even talk to and anyone else unfortunate enough to be in the same room as you for more than two seconds.

Honey covered paddles you say? My Word the absolute humiliation the sucky people would have to endure if they were to post in this topic would be unbearable. Just thinking about it sends shivers down my spine.

There are also many other people who suck. You know who you are. You may leave now. You are not welcome in The Thread What Does Not Suck. > : {

Surely one of the problems with people who suck is that they don't actually realise they suck? If they realised they sucked then they would try and not be sucky wouldn't they? If that's the case then the people who suck would actually be the people who don't suck and the people who "Don't suck" will be the the really sucky people because they are, in fact, in denial about their suckyness. Or am i just using extremely flawed logic in an attempt to appear not sucky?

Unfortunately I was a bit rushed in the setup of this pristine getaway, but feel free to customise your own special area and incorporate a sense of style and grace in your own little nook. However, I humbly request you please keep away from the hookers and food. I'll let you know when I'm no longer sexually deprived or hungry, at which point you may eat the hookers and rub grapes on your genitals. Don't worry, I'll provide a new set of grapes. I'm not THAT insensitive. Snort.

What? only grapes? Why not pineapples I assure you thta rubbing them against your genitals is a most........interesting experience

One thing I'm a tad worried about though is how we're going to deal with the inevitable. I'm no fool (well, I know I'm a fool (I'm no fool!), but let's just say crumpets)

Ok, NOW you may begin not sucking.

Seeing as by using my logic of the fact thta sucky people not actually sucking, I come out as not sucking(as I probably sucke din your opinion) am I allowed to post in this thread what does not suck? Or am I going to get beaten with a honey covered paddle? either will suit me fine.

I fail at making people laugh in person. I've yet to get the comic timing down to an art yet.

Go here. Its the LNL and it is more or less what you want this place to be I think.

Where the hell did you get that impression from? Compared to American Politics, British politics is all hugs and kisses. At least our parties,and the people who support them, can talk to each other without hurling insults at each other.

And theres more laughter in parliament than swearing as the parites always try and take a swift jab at someone when they get the chance by taking the piss in a freindly way. And the way parliament works is really formal,everyone has to be reffered to as the right honourable mp form where ever, and I really can't see the leader of the hosue of commons standing for swearing at all. They'd be sent out I'd imgine then they'd get a stern verbal beating from their Party leader or,in the case of labour, the PM.

And as for the rest of westminster and whitehall I somehow doubt the swearing in it is as bad as the political satire shows portray it.

I'm quite aware that most people won't have anything to hide but like Skycube just said if there is a nosy journalist or protestor that is getting under the government skin. They then have acces to see where and when they went provided they drove.

Aswell if this sort of stuff does get through as policy then what's next? Tags on your clothes so they really do know where we are at all times? Even though this plan is only a minor invasion of privacy it could turn into something more and more serious untill we have no privacy at all. There has to a cut off point for this sort of thig andId rather it was with something minor like this then something major like people being tagged 24/7.

And the other aspect of this is if this program is handed over to a private computer firm or corporation,or whatever, to run it then there is going to be major oppurtunities for them to sell patterns of movement to other companies that might be interested in seeing how far people travel in cars etc, I'm sure BP and other petrol providers would interested in that as it would affect their business, and the company that could take over the project would have nothing stopping them from selling off the data they had store don their computers about how far,when and where people travelled.

It's one thing for the government to have the information its another for a private corporation to have the information and act on it.

You've missed tea nad biscuits and some spififng conversation :-) Here, have a Jammy Dodger.

...........will the British population please come to the diary room.

You may have heard about the British Transport secretary Alistair Darling announcing his plans to cut down on congestion on the roads. Basically it is a pay per mile scheme that means for every mile you travel, you pay anything between 2p for travelling along a back country road, to something like £1.20 for travelling on the M6 at rush hour.

The plan might have some chance of success but there is the small problem of the fact that the government will know exactly where and when you are at all times.

This plan could be taken as an invasion of privacy by some people. Granted most people don't have anything to hide but surely the fact that drivers will be getting tracked everywhere they go invades their privacy?

In your opinion do the benefits of this new scheme ie congestion being cut down, possible decrease in CO2 emissions etc justify the invasion of privacy that these sattelites could cause?Or should the idea be scrapped for one that doesn't invade the privacy of the British populace?

Anyway thanks to Frosty some of the pythons started in TV working on the Frost report. Without that Monty Python might not have ever started, and that would be a really great lose.

Indeed it would have been a great loss.

He will stay.

God I hope not.
