- Blair’s going to save the planet, fix Israel-Palestine, and unite the faiths. Does he not have an hour or two to sort Iraq? #

- Sainsbury’s are doing coffee makers for 20 quid. A mate of mine bought a dish washer for 50 quid and it lasted six years. #
- Dining chairs 90 quid each? I bought four in an antique shop in Highbury for the same money. #

- ‘I believe the seminal mistake.. was the failure to hand Iraq over to the Iraqis on the day Baghdad fell.’ Which Iraqis? Ahmed Chalabi? #
- It used to be that the victors wrote history. Now it seems it’s the purview of sad, evil, lying losers. #
- A staggeringly naive Observer: http://tinyurl.com/2d6bsj ‘Five years on, the hard lessons that we must learn from Iraq’. Who’s this ‘we’? #

- Yes! Someone found Chicken Yoghurt by Googling ‘John Hutton tory scum’. It’s not just me. #
- ‘Fame’ is being remade. Do they have a list of every film not yet remade and are ticking them off one by one? ‘Phantom Menace’ next, please. #
- Lord Ashcroft is bankrolling Iain Dale’s new magazine: http://www.newstatesman.com/200803130011 #

- I’m developing a strange love for Slade. #
- Listen to the Budget or plane off the stubborn creases on my scrotum with a rusty cheese grater? Hmm, decisions, decisions.. #

- Bollocks to it. I’ll read the highlights (such as they are) later. Where’s that cheese grater? #
- Yes! Someone found Chicken Yoghurt by Googling ‘George Lamb bellend’. It’s not just me. #
- Jesus Christ. Warren Ellis is a BASTARD. #
- What’s the best way to block spammers, scrapers and harvesters? .htaccess? #
- @tygerland Cool, ta. WordPress collects IPs of commenters or pingers so it’d just be a question of a few cut ‘n’ pastes every now and again. #

- Young people, a word about skinny jeans: we looked like twats in them in the 80s, you look like twats in them in the 00s. Think on. #
- You know what I’d like to see? Professional irritant Anne Atkins and Patricia Hewitt trying to out-patronise each other. On Mars. #
- Hang on, there’s no Doc Manhattan in those Watchmen photos. I suppose they’re having to pixellate his blue cock to save the blushes of fools #
- @tygerland Hey! It never stops Iain Dale and his roundup. Donal Blaney Donal Blaney Donal Blaney Donal Blaney Donal Blaney Donal Blaney. #
- Just finished listening to ‘The Jam Generation’. What an empty, smug and depressing piece of crap. That’s my mood spoiled for the day. #

- Is it really sad to want to collect this - http://www.build-solar-system.com/ - ? #
- @qwghlm Yes, orrery is how I’m trying to sell it to the missus. ‘Wind up space thing’ doesn’t have the same persuasive intellectual pull. #
- @qwghlm Weekly? I thought it was monthly. Oh. Where do you find them though? This baby - http://tinyurl.com/3dpmvp - just doesn’t cut it. #
- They’re going to close Jodrell Bank for want of a poxy £40m? Verily, we are ruled by philistines. http://tinyurl.com/2ykk93 #

- All hail President McCain. Time to book that one-way ticket to Mars. #
- After a week of subscribing to the Daily Mail’s Benedict Brogan’s blog I can’t stands no more. God, what a frightful arse he is. #

- Somebody should tell the people sitting around someone asking a question at PMQs that the microphones pick up their every witless utterance. #
- Isn’t Evander Holyfield a great advert for boxing? He really makes me wish I was getting punched in the head for a living. #
- @mrpower Snap. I just picked up a copy of ‘Manufacturing Consent’ on eBay. #
- Mutton-headed reporter on Radio 4: ‘Making promises in politics can be a hostage to fortune’. No shit? That’s why they’re called promises. #
- I think it might be time to reintroduce obscene language into my blog. #
- Ooh, Wordpress 2.5 is coming: http://tinyurl.com/33afrt #

- It’s on days like today that I really want to act on my threat to flee to Wales and open a mushroom farm. #
- You have to admit that it’s good so many arseholes have blogs. Without them they’d chucking their faeces about and tossing in the street. #
- The presence of foreign powers in Iraq was a "humiliation" and they should leave, says Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Why not lead by example? #
- Excellent. The website blocking software I’ve got won’t let me take out all the blogging arseholes I’ve put into it. Goodbye forever, tools. #
- @tygerland Ah, not blocking people from me but blocking me from people. I can’t keep away from all manner of awful dicks hence the software. #
- I’ve found myself a new rule to live by. I borrowed it from the Situationists: http://snurl.com/20vnt. Seems to be working so far. #
- Blimey, Russia’s new leader was annointed by his predecessor and took power without a public debate. Could never happen here. #
- I need a haircut - I’m starting to look like Wolverine. #

- Apparently Prince Harry’s plane dropped off some injured soldiers on its way back to Blighty. Did anyone catch their names? No? Thought not. #
- The MoD must be jumping for joy. You just can’t buy this kind of propaganda. Oh, what a lovely war. #
- AND YES! YES! YES! THERE HE IS! PRINCE HARRY’S GETTING OFF THE PLANE! OH MY GOD! IT’S HIM, IT’S HIM! God bless BBC objectivity. #
- I might be being cynical here, but who thinks Harry had to go without body armour or patrol in a Snatch Land Rover? #
- Prince Harry’s video diaries are next! War as reality television. How cool is that? And all the interviews! Oh, the hardship. The poor lamb. #
- Is that repellent obsequiousness a genetic trait or is it taught at the BBC? ‘I generally don’t like England,’ says Harry. You and me both. #
- Don’t get the deal for the media to keep quiet in return for access to Harry. If they’re so honourable, why did there need to be a carrot? #
- @johnbrissenden I’ve missed this BBC WHITE thing. Jesus, I think I want to kick something. Again. The poor, poor persecuted whites. #
- Lucky that Harry’s flight was delayed or it would have arrived in the middle of Gordon Brown’s conference speech. Funny how things turn out. #
- I want to shake Brian Hanrahan. Dammit, man, get a grip. #
- @mrpower But why, morally, did the media have to be offered inducements to protect Harry and his comrade’s safety? From that view it stinks. #

- Cor blimey: http://tinyurl.com/2lv24b If this is another highly misleading trailer, I’m going to be VERY upset. #
- That Prince Harry story is a triple bluff. Those pictures were taken in a Dorset quarry. He’s actually GOING to Afghanistan not coming back. #
- If Julian Brazier MP thinks he can tell me what films I can and can’t watch, he’s got another thing coming, the dolt. #
- I tell you, this Prince Harry stuff is crap. It was all faked like the moon-landings. This is a stuffed donkey: http://tinyurl.com/ynro8k #
- So, plastic bags are evil, says Gordon. I take it he’ll be cutting down on his grocery deliveries as well, the decadent bastard. #
- Billionaire novelist feels ‘exploited’: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7270477.stm #

- So, Underworld was worth precisely 19 minutes 20 seconds of my time. Most of that was because I was sat on the remote. What a wag of bank. #
