and its diverse antecedents. -
I was intrigued by Cameron's comment on the news tonight (the Joint News Conference)
- along the lines of -
"This is a new era in British government which will look out for the interests of the country, not the party." </loose recreation of quote I can't find..>
but... but... oh! -
I recommend the Young Turk Key cutlets...
Although I personally wouldn't order this dish again, my dining companions seemed eager to go for seconds, although this might have had more to do with the lack of a credible alternative on the menu.

neither Censor nor suicidal-Stoic am I

to cater to that I cleave to CatoSuzy! -
And what's with the fag end for an avatar?

The butt stops here!
but now I see it is merely a
fickle collie form -
