By opinions you mean?
We can't change what has happened. All we can try to do is make sue it doesn't happen again.

I dislike BBC news coverage in the way that it is biased. Especially the news on Radio1.

if you dissent, you iz terrorist:

I love it.

Palin:
"Why was he not pursued with the same urgency we pursue al Qaeda and Taliban leaders?"

Yeah, because the Yanks have done an ace job of finding Osama Bin Laden.

Radio1?!? you deserve all you get from there. I thought it was only the infirmed that listened to that.

Radio1 had decent music at one point. But it now seems to be aimed at 13yr old tone deaf kids.

Palin is a joke.

You cnuts. Palin's travel programmes are excellent, and his books make super Christmas gifts for old folk.

You lot should be ashamed of yourselves. OK, he may not be the Messiah, but.....

Radio1 had decent music [B]*at one point*. But it now seems to be aimed at 13yr old tone deaf kids.[/B]

Palin is a joke.

Was the 'decent music' around when you were about 13 by any chance?

I'm with MG. Radio 1 can go do one.

Interesting. R1 is sooooooo enormously shite that I'd assumed I was "like totally not getting it".

But perhaps is really is just shite then?

I have surmised that radio 1 (and pop music in general) is for people who don't put any effort in but want to say that they like 'music'.

I have to say that when they decided to axe 6 Music and keep R1, I was deeply unimpressed.

Being a R4 and WS fan, I wrote a strongly worded missive containing subjunctive clauses which, I suspect, is wot dun it.

back on track, wikileaks is down, as they are under a massive DDOS attack, somewhere in the region of 10 Gigabits per second.

That sounds....significant. But I have no idea what it means. See previous post on middle-aged habits for details.

Although I have head of Massive Attack, but they said Things can only get better, which wasn't factually accurate. Or was that someone else. Cough* anyway.....

Well, looks like within 18 months Assange will commit suicide/slip while getting out of the shower/have a car accident.

Well Equador is willing to help them. Might be a bit better that Sweden.

some great gossip coming out
