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 did and he remained a friend.
But, once somebody called called me English and I was really offended for at least 30 secs.
Sometimes, I am sometimes confused by racial groupings.
I am racially "pure", but my wife's family started off being Yugoslav and now its members are Serbian, Croatian, Bosnian plus a few others nationalities.
All apparently different, but speaking the same language and getting on with one another.
My family often suggest I am from a different planet. Perhaps Mars while she is from Venus.

Again, my knowledge of geograpthy is pretty appalling.

Iranians are not Arabs. They cannot even speak or understand Arabic. I fact they hate to be called Arabs.
It took them 3o years, after invasion by Arabs, to change the language back to Parsi (called Farsi by Arabs first and the rest of the world).
Even Egyptians and Syrian and Lebanese are not Arabs. They only speak Arabic, like Canadian, Americans etc, these are not British and English, but speak English.
Even BBC and other media are mixing up and follow American media with no attention to the reality...

Coloureds.
I was once a member of a puckka Tennis Club.
For part of the time there was a strict dress code on clothes which could be worn on the courts once the games had started.
Players were allowed to “warm” up in track suits, but playing “garb” had to white once the game had commenced.
One day in view of the Club House and elderly foursome of the gentry were playing their usual foursome, but because it was cold continued to play in their multicoloured tracks suits.
The Club women’s captain seeing this flagrant breach of the rules marched out and shouted to them “No coloureds on court!”
With that, one of the four walked off and towards the dressing room.
As you can probably guess, he was an Asian doctor.
It was hilarious to see the “lady’s” face and embarrassment, when she realised what she had done. Also, the amusement and the laughter she had produced.
The doctor, who was friend of mine, had seen the amusing side of the situation and was “taking the mickey”.
The “rules” and their application were later modified.

The yangs are playing with share prices in the US, even though the market is closed these affect available margins in CFD accounts.
One of my US shares shows a drop of 20% reducing my available margin in my CFD account.
They says they are rectifying the error!!! (Manipulation)

Not many non-American hold securities in America.
I think, they don't want Americans to invest abroad.

" As you can probably guess, he was an Asian doctor."
Why would we guess that ? Could have been a Asian taxi driver .

Class war at its best.
The folks who are getting the free stuff don't like the folks who are paying for the free stuff, because the folks who are paying for the free stuff can no longer afford to pay for both the free stuff and their own stuff.
The folks who are paying for the free stuff want the free stuff to stop, while the folks who are getting the free stuff want even more free stuff on top of the free stuff they are already getting!
Now... the people who are forcing the people who pay for the free stuff have told the people who are RECEIVING the free stuff that the people who are PAYING for the free stuff are being mean, prejudiced and racist.
So... the people who are GETTING the free stuff have been convinced they need to hate the people who are paying for the free stuff by the people who are forcing some people to pay for their free stuff and giving them the free stuff in the first place.
We have let the free stuff giving go on for so long that there are now more people getting free stuff than paying for the free stuff.
Now understand this. All great democracies have committed financial suicide somewhere between 200 and 250 years after being founded. The reason?
The voters figured out they could vote themselves money from the treasury by electing people who promised to give them money from the treasury in exchange for electing them.
The United States officially became a Republic in 1776, 231 years ago. The number of people now getting free stuff outnumbers the people paying for the free stuff. We have one chance to change that in 2012. Failure to change that spells the end of the United States as we know it.
ELECTION 2012 IS COMING
A Nation of Sheep Breeds a Government of Wolves!
I'M 100% for PASSING THIS ON !!! For all our sake PLEASE Take a Stand!!!
Obama: Gone!
Borders: Closed!
Language: English only
Culture: Constitution, and the Bill of Rights!
Drug Free: Mandatory Drug Screening before Welfare!
NO freebies to: Non-Citizens!
We, the people, are coming. Actually, we are already here; we've just been hiding our outrage.
