Munro bagging? I don’t recall… I thought I’d read all of Tolkien’s books.

so true about the E.T.s in the senate shot, they are kind of out of focus, but are on the bottom right as soon as the shot starts. I know, I know, but one of my last roommates was a Star Wars fanatic, so I kind of picked some of this stuff up…

correct me if I’m wrong, but I think that was a one time reunion tour.
but I figure a lot of bands are getting back together…which can be good or bad. For instance, they are getting together to probably make some more good music. On the other hand guns n’ rose just needs money…

Lizard people might be popular in your area, but I’m yet to hear of them even making it onto the ballot in the UK (and I don’t think the UK has write-ins).

Sting is with the Police again now. It’s not that you’re old, it’s that you’re up to date now and he’s behind the times, lol. I saw them in concert just recently, and wow. Just fantastic. You can tell they don’t really like each other, lol, but they’re all fantastic musicians.

It’s from “It’s a Wonderful Life”.

And the line is actually “Youth is wasted on the wrong people.” since “Youth is wasted on the young.” is redundant.

I forgot to mention the only sane ones in the bunch: The Monster Raving Loony Party and their campaign for luminous dog poo…
Also, The Party for complaining and bickering is also known as The it’s-our-oil party for historic grudges. Most folk call them Nationalists. Still, I’d vote for them…

Meeh, I’m not so fond of coalition forming in my country (Holland). Main problem is, that in the end you as a voter still don’t have any real power on who will be in the government. Voters have 0 controll over the coalition forming, and in the past years I’ve seen big election winners being excluded from the government and important election promisses broken.

Someone asked a little kid “would you rather have a million friends or a million dollars?” He answered: “I’d rather have a million friends. Then I’d never be lonely, and if I get into trouble, I figure each of them could pitch in a dollar.”

Oh, we have plenty of parties in our parliament. R to L;
Racist Nazis, The-we’re-not-Thatcher-honest! Party, The middleoftheroad people, G. W. Bush’s lapdog party, The Hippies (Greens), The Party for complaining and bickering. Oh, and Tommy Sheridan…

Ah, the Grauniad.
They annoy me tho: they don’t print anything about Scottish politics. They have a “Scotland correspondent” who talks about Munro bagging.
The Independent’s better!

That’s OK, I’m sitting here at work and have a Police CD on, and one of my young staffers came in and was surprised to learn that Sting used to be with a band… I’m only 39 and that made me feel about 80…

No, I mean the Senate actually had little E.T.-like creatures. That was always my favorite part of the movie. ; )

But yeah, the Senate could do with a few wookies here and there.

Actually, one or the other would probably do. If I had a billion dollars, I could pay to have a unicorn genetically engineered. If I had a unicorn, I could make a billion dollars selling DNA specimens from it.

I thought this was a scene from Star Wars: the Phantom Menace, but there was no sucking sound, so I am wrong.
