Re: General Chit Chat
Thanks for the above Malcd1, I was going to do a little more research this morning but what you have posted is really helpful. I will definitely report it. The bottle will probably be in the recycling bin so easy enough to pull out to have another look.

Homeopathy Awareness Week this week. Can't usually be doing with Awareness Weeks but this is something where the problem is in fact 'awareness' itself.
Vile charlatans.

You could put a £10'er in a bottle for 20 minutes and then remove it, then giving the bottle as payment given that it will have the essence of money.
Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

In fact, to take it further, if diluting it makes it stronger, then you'll have over-paid, and can ask for change!

Ben Goldacre on transparency in medical trials and in particular Tamiflu. Well worth a read!

They were playing the Traveling Wilburys and she wanted to change it to Neil Diamond?! Which was her second choice after James f*cking Blunt?!

I thought that it didn't get enough nominations in the Census to be classed as a religion?! The 4uckers should be crushing rocks anyway, not fannying about with kiddies films.Prufrock wrote:http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstop ... igion.html

Re: General Chit Chat
From what I can tell, Bruce, whether or not the census classifies Jediism as a religion, it can still be considered an official religion and entitled to the usual breaks. It generally takes the courts to establish this, not the bean counters (whose question is voluntary).Bruce Rioja wrote:I thought that it didn't get enough nominations in the Census to be classed as a religion?!

Re: General Chit Chat
So once Jedism's all recognised as a religion and George Lukas firmly installed as high priest, this galaxy from far,far away in the distant past where Jedi, the "goodies" fight, Sith, the " baddies" with ray guns and light sabres for supremacy of er, whatever. (I got all that from an old papyrus I found in a stone jar, in a cave near Southport and translated using Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code), then the government, afraid of being accused of marginalising human rights for anyone, will allow ear-enlargement and eyebrow implants on the N.H.S and starship trooper outfits will be free issue. Mainly for males, but of course, certain young ladies may see these things as making them famous and, since they're available on the N.H.S, why not? As a recognised religion, movable feasts ( called star-days) will be put on the calender and will be allowed to be observed . Lags will be allowed days out to follow their new religion so as not to promote those H.R claims for compensation.
