Today I'm angry about.....

[mummywhycantieatcrayons]

There is lots in life to be fearful of... death at the hands of British armed police when you're a totally innocent man like de Menezes is, thankfully, very low down the list!

[Enoch]

The loss of a child must be the most painful thing a mother can bear and my heart goes out to any mother that treads that path.

My heart also goes out to all the silent victims, hiding behind their curtains, too fearful to voice their experiences.

I love that I live in a liberal democracy, love that the judiciary stands apart from the grubby world of politics. I wouldn't choose to live in a state where it's offices have carte blanche to terrorise its citizens. For all that, a bit of me still says good riddance to bad rubbish.

F*ck me it's complicated.

Anyway....
Been in a meeting, one that had the ominous agenda headline of Sustainability and Moving Into Profit in our Asian Markets and the Relevance in Relation to our Day to Day Business with Reference to the Database Group. There was a consultant present who I think usually makes his living confusing people at the LSE or somewhere similar – suffice it to say he had both a plum in his mouth and one up his arse (as my mother would say).
During the whole course of this particular meeting I didn’t make many notes. OK to be honest I made none that directly related to work, but I was quite busy writing throughout as I made a list of all the words and phrases that I needed to look up that had been uttered during the course of the meeting, mostly by said consultant.
Here for your gratification is the full list:

Grackle
Scleral ectasia
Sociolect
Noumenal
Compatibilism
Vaginated
Mercantilist
Gravid
Mustification

Yes I agree but I'm going out for a walk, along a cliff face and then to the airport. I will report back later if I am still here.

I am back and still alive!

Should I duplicate, or will it lose its effect. I might also annoy the mods.

didn't have you down as a scaredy-cat!! you're not scared - remember!!

[William the White]

I don't know enough about the facts to say for certain whether or not I think they did or did not think that, and I doubt anyone on here does, despite the usual suspects deciding that either 'the police must have done it', or conversely 'he seems to have been a wrong 'un so he must have done it'.

No one - no one - has actually done that...

That's ok... I have a suspicion I might be guilty...

We can make an example of you William.

Give your heads a shake fellas. This discussion is going nowhere.

I always wondered what would happen in a meeting between two people who absolutely have to have the last word. Now I no longer wonder and couldn't care less. What a pointless waste of bandwidth.

[thebish]

^ good addition!

You could try presenting a united front against me. I get all upset and angry about a meeting which I post (^ up there) and it gets swamped by you two To say I'm disappointed is an understatement
