Incredibly disappointing. The 100 Greatest Britons showed that the English TV viewers are at least interested in those who do great things... well... until The 100 Worst came on. The biggest national whinge ever :P

Thatcher was the only 'person' (using the word incredibly loosely) who really diserved to be remembered as a bad thing. Every one else were just figures of jealousy and targets of bitches. Aahh to be in England  

To my delight though, Pete Waterman was in there. "This man is responsible for many attrocities to humanity that should not be ignored... ...for which he needs to be punished". I had hoped that the evil bastard wouldn't go un-noticed.

Regards.

Steve.

churchill wasn't popular til like 50 years after- his government got ousted after the war...its now in these times that he becomes a hero- the same will happen to blair, wont be til ages after that hes either rendered a tyrant or a hero- how nostalgia clouds judgement eh?

talking of cumshots. I got a written warning back in 1998 for entering a competition at work. We had just made live a new production system, and the company wanted to know what to call it. So they asked their staff for ideas, the best one would be the name of the new system. So I forwarded

"Customer User Management System for Heirachical Order Transactions", or CUMSHOT for short.

Cant believe they gave me a warning. Everyone else thought it was funny. Bah.

yeah, the constitution was a nice bit of parchment...unless of course you were native american, black, non-christian, or poor. then it sucks.

seriously though, paperwork is there to validate the transaction, in this case, of america breaking off from its parent company, england.

i'm sure some people had good intentions...for their kids...but most good intentions have horible realities. take religon for example...a lot of those zealots think they're doing good...converting the heathens and all that. check out the book called, "The Lucifer Principle" by Howard Bloon (who not only has a degree in history, has done cancer research, but he also did the PR for Def Jam Recordings!!!). My favorite title for a chapter in this book is "Religous Indignation equals the Greed for Real Estate."

okay, that's my rant for today. I'm off to watch Hot or Not.
