Pluto! Pluto! Home, boy. Home!

Pluto is shrinking. Used to be a full-grown planet, certified member of the Solar System, up there with the big boys. Able to stay up late, drink beer with his mates Saturn and Jupiter, all that stuff.

Now, Pluto is nothing more than an "object", only allowed to play with Eris (aka Xena), Sedna and other kids we've never heard of.

This is it. Pluto is shrinking, and it's all because of Global Warming. As always, Gore has it right! We must stop it before the next smallest planet is also lost.

Mickey Mouse - Down Pluto!
Al Gore - Up Uranus!!!

A new Eurovision song contest

Welcome back, Kotter!

The Europeans have done it again. They announced that they are restarting direct payments to Palestinian families before ramadan. (Deutsche Presse Agentur Published: Monday September 25, 2006 )

Any possibilities that one or two of the 40K "families" they're slushing has a Kalashnikov or two stashed away in the cupboard, looking for a friendly Jewish head to bury it's bullets in?

Anyways, to celebrate the PC "vision" of the Euro bureaucrats, I would like to start a new competition to compose song lyrics that set out in clear terms the reality that these guys simply cannot see through their blinkers.

Please try to keep it clean, just as I have done.

My first submission (to the tune of Clementine):

In a cavern, in a canyon
sewing burkhas for his kit.
Sits the leader of al Quaida,
nothing wrong, he's fighting fit.

He's the victor, he's the winner,
mighty ruler, wise Caliph!
So how come we never see him?
Could it be he's just scared stiff.

Tells a young boy
"It's the greatest joy,
kill yourself and take a Jew.
When you die and get to heaven,
Lots of pretty girls, just for you".

Chorus:
Oh, great leader, clever mullah
Pray to allah for such luck,
when you finally get to hell there's
one old virgin left to ....

Nothing to write about - too much time!

STOP REVERSE THAT!

Too much to write about - not enough time.

Nushwolrd is on Hiatus in the UK and brain freeze has sent it. Wish I could say it is from the weather - but just been too busy to write and surprisingly it is not cold here.

Topics I promised myself to write about:

I just arrived in the UK from my 1st ever trip to Germany - The places is... well... full of Germans! need I say more? I didn't like it one bit because I could not separate my thoughts from those of the Holocaust and I did not enjoy being there.

I tried one night to pick up a wireless network from my hotel room. I swear that there was a wireless network I picked up called "SS". Co-incidence - I think NOT!

On the hot water tap in my room there was a red symbol that I had to do a double/tripple take because it so resembled the swatstika.

My German colleague kept telling us that the bus was coming to "transfer" us to our next destination.

and... the final straw... We walked through the center of Munich one night where they were filming a scene from a movie set in WWII. The street was lined with cars from the 1930's era, uniformed SS men walking around. I swear if anyone had walked up and asked to check my papers - I would have had to be flown out of there in a straight-jacket.

What I really couldn't get over - is that I was the only one (almost, there was one other person who piped up about it) out of a group of 6 Israeli's who seemed to be totally affected by my thoughts and memories of the holocaust. In fact, when we all went out to eat one day, and some of my colleagues ordered the Pork special, I honestly couldn't help wondering 'is this what 6 million Jews died for?' Perhaps I am niaive, but it just seems such a shame, and this is not the first time I have thought this too.

Sooooo I am not sure I will be too keen to jump on a plane back to Germany any time soon. Would rather go to East Jerusalem anyday!
