Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire

I read the news today - oh boy!

Sometimes you have to get past the soundbites and really read some detail of the latest world events. It's my turn to make them into soundbites...

 

Pakistan makes peace with the Taliban - there go our chances of ever getting Osama

The military decides to abide by the Geneva convention - it's about bloody time

Iran, Iran, Iran - let's not go there. I mean it. Let's not go there.

Iraq - I think we're getting close to the same number of soldiers lost in the war on terror as we lost people on September 11. 

Japan has an heir for the next generation finally - how quaint

Mexico relives our 2000 presidential election - except the loser is sore

Mr. Irwin, the crocodile hunter, was filmed as he was quote "interacting" with the stingray that killed him.  - "Interacting". Hmmm. Interesting word. 

 

I'll stop there.
