Murphy's Lesser Known Laws
1. Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.
2. Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine.
3. Those who live by the sword get shot by those who don't.
4. Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.
5. The 50-50-90 rule: Anytime you have a 50-50 chance of getting something right, there's a 90% probability you'll get it wrong.
6. If you lined up all the cars in the world end to end, someone would be stupid enough to try to pass them, five or six at a time, on a hill, in the fog.
7. The things that come to those who wait will be the scraggly junk left by those who got there first.
8. The shin bone is a device for finding furniture in a dark room.
9. A fine is a tax for doing wrong. A tax is a fine for doing well.
10. When you go into court, you are putting yourself into the hands of 12 people who weren't smart enough to get out of jury duty.

News....
The Oil Connection. What is Hillary's connection to Oil for Fraud?
More than 2m untaxed and uninsured drivers are laughing at the law as prosecution rates more than halve in eight years. Driving without tax and insurance should carry a penalty of £10,000 fine and 6 months in a chain gang.
The drinks are on us: Whitehall's wining and dining bill costs the taxpayer £5m. Greedy pigs. Off to slaughter for the lot of them.
Revealed: The £1.5bn we waste on welfare every year because Britain's benefits system 'is out of date'. Time to end the 'welfare state'. It is a joke. too many people are getting benefits who don't need or deserve them.
Soaring food costs risk 'starvation and unrest'. This century is shaping up to be a real doozy.
Bill Clinton's China links embarrass Hillary. Ho hum.
Moose to roam free again in Scotland. Cool.
Zimbabwe ballot recount triggers rigging fears. No S**t. Mugabe will steal the election and nobody will do a thing to stop him.
Gordon Brown believes Zimbabwe fate must be left to its neighbours. Gordon Brown is a gutless prick, and he won't do a thing to stop Mugabe.
Caught in the crunch – 4,000 estate agents could be forced to close. Oh dear!!!
Electro Kevin has written gone after Thames Valley Plod for the shameful way our wardead are treated.

Royal Navy Field Gun Competition 1993
My US readers may never have heard of this let alone seen it. The Royal Navy....tough as nails. I worked on two Royal Tournaments and never got tired of watching this.
1994 Royal Tournament - Kings Troop RHA...Musical Drive.
My US readers may have not seen anything like this before. And yes they are still going strong. Although they may be needed on the frontlines soon the way things are going.
The Sunday Best.....
Zimbabwe to hold partial recount. Anyone want to guess the winner!
Pictures that should shame us all reveal the shabby way Britain treats its heroes. It is disgusting! Our troops deserve better.
Reshuffle could spell the end of two jobs for Defence Secretary Des Browne. Better still shoot the worthless sack of s***.
Berlusconi set for victory as Italy goes to the polls And I thought he was in jail!!
Outrage over Alan Yentob's £27,000 BBC expenses claim... including a £120 cake. Sack him and get rid of the licence fee.
Victory for Armed Forces Day campaign. About bloody time too. The 21st of October will do fine.
Barack Obama regrets comments about 'bitter' small-town Americans. He isn't going to the White House.
Iraqi neighbours rise up against al-Qa'eda. We are winning.
Terror revolt rocks Gordon Brown. Bye bye bozo.
Pirates can claim UK asylum. Not if we shoot them they can't. The Human Rights Act must go.
Des Browne misled MPs on Nimrod. I still say shoot the bastard.
Army has killed 7,000 Taliban. They need bigger weapons. 70,000 would be a better figure. We will get there.
Robert Mugabe digs in with farm terror campaign. We must send in troops.
Cronies with blood on hands fear arrest if president Robert Mugabe resigns. He will be shot long before he resigns.
More than 200 dead as battle rages in Baghdad. Nice of somebody to notice. Not a mention on the TV news. The MSM are not interested in 'good' news.
Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it’s an 800mph jet car. Woooooo hooooo!
Biofuels go from saviour to villain. Food or fuel?

Twat of the Day....'Teaboy' Mbeki.
Mbeki urges patience on Zimbabwe. Zimbabwe's problems will never be solved while this asshole continues to protect Mugabe.
One day a 12-year old boy was walking down the street when a car pulled up beside him and the window was wound down. 'I'll give you a bag of lollies if you get in the car', said the male driver.
'No way, get stuffed', replied the boy.
'How about a bag of lollies and £10?' asked the driver.
'I said no way', replied the irritated youngster.
'What about a bag of lollies and FIFTY QUID, eh'? quizzed the driver, still rolling slowly to keep up with the walking boy.
'No, I'm not getting in the fricken car!' answered the boy
'OK, I know what you want, I'll give you £100 and a bag of lollies', the driver offered.
'NO,' screamed the boy.
'What will it take to get you into the car'? asked the driver with a long sigh.
The boy replied, 'Listen Dad, you bought the Skoda, you live with it.'
