Hold up! Before you read on, please read this...

I keep old posts on the site because I often enjoy reading old content on other people's sites. Not everything that is old is bad. It can be interesting to see how views have changed over time: for example, how my strident teenage views have mellowed and matured.

But given the age of this post, please bear in mind:

  • My views might very well have changed in the 10 years since I wrote this post. I have written some very silly things over the years, many of which I find pretty embarrassing today.
  • This post might use language in ways which I would now consider highly inappropriate or offensive.
  • Factual information might be outdated.
  • Links might be broken; embedded material might not appear properly.

Okay. Consider yourself duly warned. Read on...

The technology behind the diary seems to be playing up at the moment… I wonder if this will ever appear? «

I’m very much of the Heat-reading generation, yet nothing could bore me more than the Mills/McCartney divorce. Get off my screen! «

The continuing economic turmoil in the US reaffirms my belief, in spite of polls, that Clinton is a safer bet than Obama in the elections. «

… Though I should make clear that I’m not sure Clinton would make the better President. «

Perhaps Sir Paul can move to the US and become governor of New York or New Jersey.
At the size of the divorce settlement he might have been better off with one of the expensive hookers.
It is almost enough to keep one chaste.
Though when you figure it is based on what he earns and what I earn, I suppose it cost me almost as much to shed my ex-wives.
I have to keep the current wife.
I can’t afford to divorce her living on social security.
On the other hand, if the former Mrs. McCartney is interested…..
