California Love??

Come on Cali!! In the UK we thought you were the cool state, the state that(except for New York) we could rely on for forward thinking. What you have failed to do is realise that gay marriage is not something for FREAKS, GEEKS and OUTCASTS, but something that the rest of the(right thinking) world has now come to accept.  It is not just a left-wing ideology.  It is NORMAL. COME ON CALI, catch up with the rest of the free world…California, we hope to see you soon.  xx

Just an update

Ok, so you all know that I’m right about everything, that’s a given. However, I have failed in my duty to tell you all what you should be thinking right now, so here goes…

1. Swine/Pig/Mexico/Hybrid Flu. It won’t kill you, chill the fuck out.

2. The Recession/Credit Crunch/Global Economic Crisis. It might end your job/relationship/benefits/cable subscription, but it(probably) won’t kill you, chill the fuck out.

3. Gordon Brown is way more useless than we could have imagined.

4. Barack is doing an okay job so far. I say give him another 100 days or so. AND ENOUGH WITH THE ‘GRADING’ ALREADY!

5. Fox News is more like an hysterical aunt that you had to have sectioned than ever, and I know this despite living in the UK.

6. Twitter is better than Facebook.

7. Dexter…that is all

8. I realise that bigging up Dexter kind of disqualifies my criticism of Fox..but that’s the best thing about being me, I’m an hypocrite.

9. Manny Pacquiao will probably beat Ricky Hatton tomorrow, but I will shout for Ricky all the way, and, until I know different, I will believe that Ricky can win.

10. If you read this far, you need a hobby.

THAT IS THE NEWS…GO AWAY!
