THE TALK TO YOURSELF THREAD. (NOWT)     

goldfinger - 09 Jun 2005 12:25

Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

I would believe anything Damon says, at any moment in time.

Mind that goes for any present coalition "politician".

Aids,

Where were your ancestors from?

Fred1new - 04 Nov 2011 10:30 - 12999 of 81564

What I have noticed, is the change in political speech by Osborne and your Dave.

Besides blaming their parents for their ongoing problems in this country, they are now saying in Cannes "what we have to do" from the terraces.

They seem to be going down a bomb.

I am glad they are not going to support the Greeks, or others in the Eurozone.

Europe has a long memory and their stance bodes well for the future.

Bur it is good to have diversions from the failing economic policies and being able to blame "immigration" and "repatriations" and the "grubby" unemployed for our present economic problems.

As was thetory criticism of the previous government, the uk's problems are not related to "world problems", but due to the coalition's incompetence.

Row, row, row the boat on to the rocks.

" Where were your ancestors from? "

How far back do you want me to go ?

A fair question.

But, to answer it, would take an amount of work which appears overwhelming, even if I lived long enough to do so.

Have pondered similar for a long time. The answers are even more confusing,

I would not like to have the responsibility for any decision made.

However:-
1) I am fed up with the political leaders who are strutting about the national and international stage making nationalistic statements for political and home consumption for party followers.
2) I think although the Markets have an importance they should be ignored while:

a) An attempt to analyse what could be seen as a European a common goal for all within Europe.
b) To consider that those ideals and goals should be beneficial for the members of the of the EU and the rest of the world, while being cognisant of the needs and wishes or the groups which are being represented. That is, to be equally responsive to the needs of those of others countries or groups. (Not to advantage oneself at the detriment or abuse of others.)

c) To accept that we are due to the period of technical advances we are in, the global market and the actions of one community are reflected back on the initiated of the action, even if there is a delay.

d) To review the Capitalist principles and theories and realise that there are limitations to it. Realising persona, or national acquisition, is not the only measure of a successful or happy existence. I have noticed with many wealthy people I have known, that it wasnt the wealth they had which gave them satisfaction, but the improvement of the skills they employed in doing so.

e) Recognition that capitalism has its advantages, but needs to be restrained by a leash for the good of society as a whole.

Aids,

Sorry to ignore you.

I will give you a chance.

In your case, one generation would be enough.

Ps.

Can I take my tongue out of my cheek now.

Has you are talking about my generation , I thought I would put it to music.

Well that's taken the edge off of my day!.

greekman - 04 Nov 2011 15:57 - 13010 of 81564

Mnamreh,

Well it made me bloody angry, although I am not surprised by the judges decision.

I've lot count of the number of repeat criminals that on being told by their briefs that this time they are almost certain to be sent to prison do the following whilst awaiting trial.
1 Get a girl pregnant (one of the best ways to keep out of prison).
2 Form a stable relationship, or move back into the family home (well until after the sentencing)
3 Start looking after a sick relative
4 Get a job (anything will do)
5 Enroll in some sort of course.
6 Volunteer for counseling (thats a favorite with the judges)
7 Take up religion, which on seeing the error of their ways, makes them determined to change (works best with female judges).
8 Donate a kidney or some other organ (OK never known anyone do that, but thats probably because no one has thought of it yet)
And of course it goes without saying, they are always filled with remorse.

I have been in court so many times where I have heard defending briefs spout out this rubbish, but you would be surprised (perhaps not) how many times it works.
The problem with most judges, is that they do not live in the real word and although seeing and hearing from the dregs that appear before them, they are so out of touch its pathetic.

Hey Rumple, cheer up.

Sometimes they have been know to get it right!

-----------------

Well that was the held opinion of the verdict for a couple of years.

Justice is a difficult

But remember "the man who murdered both his parents, and then when sentence was about to be pronounced pleaded for mercy on the grounds that he was an orphan.





A dishonest misquote.

Enjoy a small glass of good brandy even if you don't deserve it.

Another mess that Labour left us in .

Fred1new - 05 Nov 2011 16:30 - 13017 of 81564

Nothing like the mess the Tories and cohorts are getting the UK into.

Cameron and Osborne strutting out alienating Europe for party political gains.

The majority of Europe rejecting him.

Bodes well for future relationships.

Britain in a hole and Porky and Dave keep on digging.

Notice Dave is getting flabbier and flabbier, is he on the bottle?

Milk of course.

I think the UK needs another election!
