But the central premise of religion is that it assiduously avoids accepting fact. Why else would Dubya talk to God? Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable. Prenait la pisse hors du FrançaisCanadiens méridionaux puisqu'avant lui à la mode.

We can do that for you... I've looked at the pic and you can see that there's nobody at home. All we have to do now is find out where the house is...! Best wishes for this special time of year & I hope Y'All get all you wish for.

So Cute it's Sick & Evil! Mike.

Yep. Power. Forcing will. Also... A long way away from your initial post about provocative dress in risky area! Ask your G/f. Incidentally... Did you, err... just get home after the Works Christmas Party when you posted this? Is this something more productively discussed "Wiff Yer Brief"? Mike.

... A little more risque, but still should be work-safe.

Enjoy.

Quotei think that this attitude of "i should be able to wear what i want, where i want, and when i want" is sometimes partly responsible for them getting raped...Quote BOLLOCKS! BOLLOCKS! UTTER AND ABSOLUTE BOLLOCKS!......(make up the next 20 or so lines yourself!) Maybe I shouldn't go on 'til I've counted to 10++++++++++! BTEW, anyone know of a way to make the start of my post any more visible & strident. I could go on to discuss how foul & destructive Rape is. How it isn't about sex, it's about POWER!... Naaahh... I'm off to post some comedy. Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable. Prenait la pisse hors du FrançaisCanadiens méridionaux puisqu'avant lui à la mode.

Of course not! That freedom was written in English. If you don't read English then you're not aware of the freedom! Mike. PS: English is actually OUR language! You've had a free loan of it for quite a while now, so either give it back or start paying for it! One More: "Uncontrolled Immigration has been American's curse!" - American Indians.

So err... "Jeff", wasn't it? Jeff mate, If WE gave you a list of names of all the effin' telemarketer companies that call us at $hitty times... Then YOU can give us numbers to 'phone them back with offers that "might" interest THEM ? Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable.

The result of which is that the police officer quickly finds himself a FORMER Police Officer. I doubt there's much point going into the checks etc... And punishments here - let's just say they're effective & draconian! Police always went after unpaid road taxes - an untaxed car almost invariably opens a big can of worms involving the reason WHY it isn't taxed. (It was very rarely just the cost of the tax). Mike.

Without getting "TOO" technical, PNC can produce an "Information Response" for: 1. Untaxed Vehicles. 2. Uninsured Vehicles (from details of insured vehicles already provided to PNC from insurance companies associations like BIBA & ABI) 3. Vehicles without a valid roadworthiness certificate in force (details from testing stations via VOSA) 4. Vehicles reported stolen. 5. Vehicles reported destroyed, scrapped, or permanently exported. 6. Other "Police Interest" vehicles. (Vehicles known to be used by travelling criminals, disqualified drivers & similar - info comes from individual officers who are responsible for the accuracy of the information submitted) There "MAY" be other categories, only available to the security services or similar. On occasion, a routine vehicle check has come back to me as "Blocked". usually with instructions for the officer making the enquiry to contact the local Special Branch & give details. Mike.

Ordinarily yes. However, in this case the Government only takes number plate info from a known location, date & time. More importantly, the companies have no control & no knowledge of the information being sent. In effect, all the Police National Computer gets is "VRM, date, time, locus" as a borrowed feed from existing cameras. Negative returns are going to be ignored and deleted quickly. Personally, I love the idea and I see real benefits. Then again, I am a PNC operator and i know that there's pretty stringent & draconian measures in force against abuses. I honestly think that this is something we can be fairly relaxed about.

Yeah... The system is called "ANPR" for "Automatic Number Plare Regognition" and it's been around for years in speed cameras and the like. Effectively it's a computer that can scan for and read a vehicle registration plate from a CCTV camera. Like I said, this technology has been in police hands and used for 5 years or so without any fuss being made. Using it was like having absolute observation combined with a steel-trap memory for "vehicles of interest"! Where it's all suddenly "coming together" now is twofold: 1. ANPR is being fitted toas amny roadside & vehicle monitoring cameras as possible, including those nominally in private hands all sending number plates to The Police National Computer at Hendon (which already has details of police interest vehicles). 2. The PNC also now receives data on vehicles which don't have mandatory insurance, road tax, and a current certificate of roadworthiness (UK vehicles must submit to periodic roadworthiness inspections). SO... if you use a vehicle which isn't taxed, isn't insured, hasn't been tested, reported stolen, or known to be used by a crimal, then every time it comes into view of a camera it'll be recognised and doubtless the local police service will be informed (hopefully imediately). There are in fact distinct problems in using it for revenue - but as a security measure it WILL go some way to making a criminal's life more difficult!

Excellent. And we can send them a bunch of Crips to help dedicate it in Tookie's name. Yeah... Cancel The Austrian Air Force for the re-dedication Fly-Past... The Crips could do a "Formation Drive-Past!.." Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable.

For this? Surely he "turned his back" in 1983 when he bacame a naturalised US Citizen. And as for an Austrian Mayor telling the American Governor of California how to behave... Personally I am also vehemently opposed to Capital Punishment, but where the hell does The Mayor of Graz get off telling Governor Schwarzenegger to allow clemency with an; "Or Else!" appended? So, while I would also have counselled clemency, even for Tookie, I think Arnie is right in calling "DILLIGAF" to The Mayor Of Graz's actions. Mike.

WHoA....... I never thought of that!!!! YEP! Persecuted Minorities RULE OK! Mike. Edited to add: Think I'll spend a little of Christmas day lurking here to catch any Christians who choose to play wiff their computers instead of "Celebrating Jesus' Birthday".

I'll stay "Traditional" and just wish all fellow B(.)(.)bie Worshippers a Suitably Accessorised and NOT WORK SAFE White Christmas! Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable. Prenait la pisse hors du FrançaisCanadiens méridionaux puisqu'avant lui à la mode.

Wot? Put one of them in charge of The Air Force? Get your personal SS bodyguard to sing a song about another one? Put a third one in charge of Czechsolvakia? a fourth in charge of The Storm-Troopers? No offence mate... I really DON'T see how this improves nights out with gay mates... Unless we're all going on a jolly to a 1930's Berlin Nightclub! Mike.

Absolutely nothing!!! Unfortunately "Smart as an option doesn't seem to have been included in your recent choices! Clinton was professionally smart (despite his personal life being "entertaining"). George H.W. Bush was similarly smart, if not as smart as Ronald Reagan (who was definitely the right man for the right job at the right time

I wouldn't say they "Rocked My World", but I've had mates who're gay since my late teens. Personally I've always found them more witty & funny to socialise with than hetero males. Similarly, I found that you get a better night out in The Gay Scene. OK, you get hit on occasionally, but telling the guy that: "I Prefer to Pot The Pink, and I DON'T Moisturise or Swallow!" usually fixes any chat-up without causing offence.

Yeah... But it'd be like having Maggie back. only without all the lighthearted fun bits! Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable. Prenait la pisse hors du FrançaisCanadiens méridionaux puisqu'avant lui à la mode.

And just to make things REALLY perfect... Just to put the effin' cherry square on the $hit-cake... They're replacing Tony Blair wiff Hilary Clinton!

Wait a minute... This is the bit where the "2am Lightbulb" goes off! Walt... You're arguing in defence of The First Amendment aren't you. The right to freedom of speech, opinion etc... I'm arguing AGAINST narrow and possibly inappropriate punishment - simply jailing someone for a crime (race etc... hatred) without exploring the reasons for the crime and attempting to deal with the cause, not the effect. So... Are we arguing? Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable. Prenait la pisse hors du FrançaisCanadiens méridionaux puisqu'avant lui à la mode.

Err... Fair deal here. I do recall (without driving 160 miles to a particular university library & phoning folk in the middle of the night here)... Stalin DID commission research into the breeding of a sub-human cannon-fodder / labour by selective breeding of apes. I vaguely recall that the project fell doen because the more intelligent strains lacked hardiness & vice versa. (At this point some cold-war historian will point out that Leonid Brezhnev lived for ages!) The original reason that this particular bit of research caught my eye was that at the time I was a police officer working in a place called METHIL!!! I gradually came to suspect that the British War Office conducted similar secret experiments there during the 1950's but from the opposite direction: Selectively breeding HUMANS for STUPIDITY! Consider the evidence! Everywhere in Scotland (350 miles North of The Watford Gap & hence the start of civilization) there was some war office skullduggery going on - Nerve gas, Submarines and Germ Warfare right up The West Coast. Experimental Nuclear Reactors in the North of Scotland. Mysterious radars, Nuclear Reactors and air bases down the East Coast. Cold War stuff going on EVERYWHERE in Scotland except Methil. All aspects of The Cold War being fought... Except Breeding Sub-Human Cannon Fodder! Co-incidence? By now I was beginning to wonder. Then. I considered the supplementary evidence! "Giros" (welfare checks) were printed in the EXACT SAME GREEN as Soviet Army Equipment. It was well known that Methilites would go unstoppably beserk at the sight of such an item held outwith their reach! 95% of Methilites would commit Grievous Bodily Harm for a bottle of Vodka! The remaining 5% went for Rum (perhaps specifically bred to invade Cuba?)! A significant proportion of these folk had eyes that went in completely different directions - giving them a Gecko-like advantage in Urban combat! Short version... If The Cold War had ever erupted and The Warsaw Pact Forces came pouring through The Fulda Gap, I can think of no better strategy than releasing hordes of Methilites at The "Giro-Coloured" stuff that's got Vodka in it!!! Believe me... It REALLY wouldn't matter if they were nuked! We used to fantasise about just such an occurrence. Finally, and most compellingly... Everyone is surely familiar with The Duke of Edinburgh and how his "Blunt" statements, like "Slitty-Eyed" in China, are gleefully reported by the press. Well. He visited Methil once and on getting out of his car, looked around and said: "This really must be the Shithole of Europe!" There wasn't a single peep from the media! Mike. Edited to add specifically to Mark: "Du liegst mir im herzen"... Behave! 1. She's has a man. 2. Join the effin' queue! Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable.
