I personally agree with just about everything he says. We are very similiar. He's the man, and has guts for stating his position on CNN like he does. Who agrees or disagrees?

Ok, I know it rained really intensely but FFS we are meant to be an advanced western country! A bit of excessive rain and all the rivers burst their banks and the drains go awol. Ridiculous. Where are the flood defences, and when is our knackered out Victorian drain and sewerage system gonna be upgraded into the 21st century??!! Gordon Brown - sort it out!!!

I mean writing a book takes a long time I would assume, and during that time I would also assume the writer would need an ample amount of time each day to get a book finished. So my question is do they get a side job? what do they do to support themselves in the meantime?

They're coming on and verbally abusing anybody who dares to have the opinion that maybe the McCann parents did something wrong that night.

They're also stealing genuine user names and listing questions relating to Madeleine.

For someone to be so abusive and passionate about this, could they be related or hired by Team McCann, or are they just crazy?

No doubt you'll see some examples below.....

Is it because these two allegedly intelligent doctors really are 'at most, naive' or

because they are only inexperienced parents and the nanny wouldn't have left the children unattended or

because the team of high exec lawyers, hired after a couple of days, advised them from the start that it would be an admission of guilt?

Good advice for the McCanns has been in short supply - their press conferences have been ill-advised and totally botched up by Gerry. Why is he being allowed to continue with a blog where he continues to spell his daughter's name wrong, mentions her only in reference to the 'fund' and give the opinion that jogging is much more satisfying than looking for his eldest daughter.

As for Kate, under Gerry's thumb? What is she all about - is she going to continue moping about opening emails, getting her hair/make up done/picking her outfit for the day?

McCanns - stop jogging and stop blogging. Your daughter needs you.

There's a few ways that I know of...
You start to read an an article on the front page of the Editorial section in the Sunday Newspaper that catches your interest and when you get to the bottom of the column it says, "Please see Blah blah blah, Page E2". As you unfold the news paper another headline for another article catches your eye.

Do you ...

A. open the newspaper, go to Page E2 and finish the first article you started reading, then go back to Page E1 and repeat for the other articles?
- or-
B. Read other articles on Page E1 to the bottom of their columns and then after you finished half of all the articles then go to page E2 and finish reading all the other halves?

There's probably a few other ways to read those opinions, any coments?

Admittedly she was on a hiding to nothing. As Gerry S eloquentally put it 'She was put in charge of polishing a turd'.

However I personally would give her a D. She had the opportunity to tell Gerry to stop his ridiculous posts. Or if he insisted on them, at least going through and editing them to cut out the self indulgent carp that will come across in a negative light.

And her half hearted attempts at justifying the McCanns behaviour that night. Dont even get me started ........

Actually having thought about it, let me change that D to a straight out F.

If I approach a 'person on the street' for the opinion on something, they more often than not are unwilling to be interviewed... why?

I'm not grilling them on anything or trying to catch them in a lie...I'm just trying to get their opinions on stuff...

I watch the travel channel a lot. They have do have 2 sets of stairs and they do have an emergency exit in the train. The steps are used for maintenance and emergencies. I would consider people trapped an emergency.

Sorry, if wrong category.

It was announced in todays Daily Telegraph that David Cameron could face a leadership challenge in the near future.

Do you actually think that this will happen given that the Conservatives have now changed their name to 'the David Cameron Conservative Party' as can be seen from the ballot papers in Thursdays by-election in Ealing Southall?

A man in our local news was arrested for Hanging his dog till dead by the neck in his garage. The news didn't say why he did this awful thing! I am trying not to think about it.

I majored in a Technology related field mainly because I knew growing up that sportscaster/reporter's salaries werent the greatest starting off and in the long term unless you're someone famous, like espn or something... i do love sports but i didnt think it would be something i'd want to do forever because the lack of opportunity/money making

Why is it that sports reports/casters dont make a lot of money? I'm talkin the average one, like one of us...

I chose the IT field cuz well there is more career opportunity and advancements into something like senior executive management and being high in the corporate IT world. any thoughts on this? your experiences?

thanks.
