I noticed this the other day

I noticed an article in the Daily Telegraph the other day, commenting on what proportion of their lives the ladies take in preparing to go out. I have not made a scientific study in my case, but I reckon that the article is somewhere near the truth! :-)

The RAF suffer from political correctness this time

Some cretin at the MoD has decided that painting scantily clad young ladies on the nosecone of RAF aircraft, a practice that goes back to at least the Second World War, will cause offence amongst the female members of the Air Force. What a load of cobblers. I cannot imagine many women who are prepared to sign up for the armed forces are such wilting flowers.

Maybe the RAF should practice precision bombing a bit closer to home, say Whitehall for instance!!

How jolly decent of the EU

What wonderful news. The Glorious Peoples' Socialist Republic of Europe has decided that we, the British (although I am increasingly thinking of myself as English only), are allowed, ALLOWED for goodness sake, to continue to use pounds and ounces and other Imperial measures.

Actually, I do not really care whether we use the metric or Imperial system, as I have a degree in Chemistry and have worked most of my life as a research scientist and then an engineer. However, it should be MY choice of what system I use, not some jumped up jobsworth in Brussels or Whitehall!!

The world gone mad

What the hell is happening?

Sailors who failed in their duty getting six figures sums of dosh from the gutter press for doing so.

A government minister approving of the former. (Presumably so the sailors do not blab about how poorly trained and equipped they are, thanks to the Tartan Tax Thief).

One of those sailors being a mother of a young kid. Bad enough to have women on the front line, but a MOTHER!!! I am not, like the islamofacists do, suggesting the subjugation of women, but there are some things that women are not really suited for (and also some that men are not suited for).

A couple of barmy bishops saying what a wonderful guy Ahmadinejad is as he is so charitable as to release the hostages.

The only thing to say to this is for all sensible people to get real and GET MAD!!!!

Dr Who

Just watched the latest Doctor Who. The new "Companion" is another very fit young lady. Even though I am, too, a professional genius, I do not seem to attract a bevy of attractive young ladies.I still have to make do with SWMBO (She who must be obeyed). What am I doing wrong? Only kidding, my love!

Another loony idea from a bunny hugger

Heard on the news just now that some Austrian loon has applied to the Austrian High Court to become the legal guardian of a chimpanzee. The chimp is male, 25 years old and, like most adult chimps, strong, vicious and basically wild and uncontrollable.

Legal owner, as the sanctuary where the chimp resides after being rescued from an animal smuggler is being closed, maybe. Legal guardian, give me a break!

I think it is only a matter of time before some other loon applies to a court somewhere for their goldfish to be given power of attorney!

Doh!!
