In ancient Israel , It came to pass that a trader by the name of Abraham Com did take unto himself a healthy young wife by the name of Dorothy. Dot Com was a comely woman, broad of shoulder and long of leg. Indeed, she was often called Amazon Dot Com. And she said unto Abraham, her husband, "Why dost thou travel so far from town to town with thy goods when thou canst trade without ever leaving thy tent?" Abraham did look at her as though she were several saddle bags short of a camel load, but simply said, "How, dear?" Dot replied, "I will place drums in all the towns and drums in between to send messages saying what you have for sale, and they will reply telling you who hath the best price. The sale can be made on the drums and delivery made by Uriah's Pony Stable (UPS)." Abraham thought long and decided he would let Dot have her way with the drums. The drums rang out and were an immediate success. Abraham sold all the goods he had at the top price, without ever having to move from his tent. To prevent neighboring countries from overhearing what the drums were saying, Dot devised a system that only she and the drummers knew. It was known as Must Send Drum Over Sound (MSDOS), and she also developed a language to transmit ideas and pictures - Hebrew To The People (HTTP). And the young men did take to Dot Com's trading as doth the greedy horsefly take to camel dung. They were called Nomadic Ecclesiastical Rich Dominican Sybarites, or NERDS. And lo, the land was so feverish with joy at the new riches and the deafening sound of drums that no one noticed that the real riches were going to that enterprising drum dealer, Brother William of Gates, who bought off every drum maker in the land. Indeed he did insist on drums to be made that would work only with Brother Gates' drumheads and drumsticks. And Dot did say, "Oh, Abraham, what we have started is being taken over by others." And Abraham looked out over the Bay of Ezekiel , or eBay as it came to be known. He said, "We need a name that reflects what we are." And Dot replied, "Young Ambitious Hebrew Owner Operators." "YAHOO," said Abraham. And because it was Dot's idea, they named it YAHOO Dot Com. Abraham's cousin, Joshua, being the young Gregarious Energetic Educated Kid (GEEK) that he was, soon started using Dot's drums to locate things around the countryside. It soon became known as God's Own Official Guide to Locating Everything (GOOGLE). That is how it all began. And that's the truth!

Paddy and Mick arrived in Quebec for a moose hunting trip and hired a private pilot to fly them deep into the Canadian wilderness. After many mishaps and adventures, by the end of the trip they had managed to bag a moose each. As they were loading the plane to return, the pilot said he could only take the hunters, their gear and one moose, due to load constraints. The hunters objected saying, "Last year we shot two, and the pilot let us take them both...and he had exactly the same plane as yours." Not wanting to be outdone by another bush pilot, their pilot reluctantly gave in and everything was loaded. However, even under full power the little plane couldn't climb above the tree tops and went down in the wooded wilderness. Somehow, surrounded by the moose, clothing and sleeping bags, Paddy and Mick survived the crash. After climbing out of the wreckage, Paddy asked Mick, "Any idea where we are?" Mick replied, "I'm pretty sure we're close to where we crashed last year."

Aren;t those exactly the people we are complaining about????????

That would be my thinking too TomTom...well for a start!

Is that how you did your homework then Maggie!

Cheers, look forward to it Willy.

Absolutely agree with your second sentence Willy but I have a bit of a problem with the word "constitution” in your first one. Maybe someone can point me in the direction of the "Constitution of the United Kingdom” so I can have a read through! I do think we should have one by the way because as you say without one we have no dammed rights only those which our betters allow us to have in a smoke and mirrors exercise to keep them wrapped up in power.

....well it was Magna Carta that started me off GGG.

Johnny is somethign Sym.........

Wow, just suppose our ancestors - who risked and many who lost their lives for this country - could read that cynicism Malc! Which is exactly my point GGG, the sovereignty talked about in those early documents, probably right up to the 1800's and beyond in some cases, is far and away removed from what is being bandied around here! Personally I think we do our forefathers, certainly the ones who gave their lives in the expansion of democracy and individual's rights, a huge disservice by not following up on their heroic actions and programmes. I think "our ancestors" would be far more 'unsettled' at what we have allowed to take place and the people dictating the crumbs of democracey which fall from the high tables! It's a dammed travesty we don't have their stoicism!

I think the term "sovereignty of this country" is so misconstrued and out of context now to be almost worthless, unless you have a job whose raison d'etre is to add to the ambiguity of course.

I can second that!!!!

A yes our glorious original "Bill of Rights".

Britain belongs to us, the people Thats like quoting the American Dream, both exercises in mass hysterical misdirection!

I think there is a serious case for the whole Parliamentary Labour Party to be brought to court and face charges for what they did to this country. I think certainly Gordo and Tony! Also any bankers we can round up!

Here's some politics for you's http://www.parliament.uk/business/committees/committees-a-z/commons-select/political-and-constitutional-reform-committee/news/new-inquiry-devolution-after-referendum/

Well Sym I can vouch unreservedly not ALL politicians are corrupt!

In church a lady was heard to say a prayer. It was so sweet and sincere that I just had to share it with you:- "Dear Lord, This has been a tough two or three years. You have taken my favourite actor Patrick Swayze. My favourite pop singer Michael Jackson. My favourite Blues Singer Amy Winehouse. My favourite actress Elizabeth Taylor. My favourite football manager Bobby Robson. My favourite golfer Seve Ballesteros, my favourite singer Whitney Houston and now my favourite actor, Robin Williams. I just wanted you to know that my favourite politicians are: Alec Salmond, Tony Blair, John Prescott, Ed Balls, Gordon Brown, Harriet Harman, Nick Clegg and Ed Miliband (in no particular order) Amen
