John and Edward

X Factor - Very irritating ITV dross. But I can't help getting into the argument about John and Edward. As far as I can tell, they are a couple of big-headed, cocky gits with dyed blond hair that is styled by superglue, and who cant sing. The only reason they are still in is because they are Irish. If they win then god help us all.
Don't vote for them, get the T-Shirt

How low can you go

It amazes me how despicable people can be.
I donated an old hand-held organiser to the charity shop that I work in on Saturdays. It was not very valuable, about £5 at the most. When I went in last Saturday, it had been stolen. The moron who did it, left the case behind, with its £3 price tag.
OK, so £3 is not a huge amount to lose, but I would have preferred to chuck it in bin, rather than let some thick scum get hold of it.
If this idiot requires the services of the charity in the future, will he give the money back?
Grrrrrrrrrrr.

Put it in perspective

We all like to moan and complain about things. There are so many injustices in this world, and we mistakenly believe that complaining will help. Sometimes, something happens to bring some sort of perspective to this.
A 12 year old boy has collapsed and died at our local school. Our thoughts go out to the parents and friends and relatives of this young lad. You cant imagine what they must be going through. Having lost my wife at an early age, I can relate to losing someone, but losing a child must be almost impossible to bear.
I hope more resources will be devoted to finding effective treatments and cures for life limiting illnesses, rather than weapons to kill and maim people.
That's all. R.I.P.

Rear Wheel Steering

I was driving behind a truck this morning that had a sign on the back - "Danger Rear Wheel Steer" - Eh? So what? Should I be scared of this fact? Is it suddenly going to go backwards?
Should we have some more signs on our cars? "Danger - Radio on loud", "Warning - lost geezer in Charge"

Pensions

Is it worth doing a pension? This is a great big con.
Because I have had several jobs, I have a few small pensions floating about. I got a statement the other day. The pension pot is now £1000 less than it was 1 year ago, and buys me a pension 0f £300 per year. Was it worth saving? Where's that £1000 gone? Why cant I invest this money myself? I wouldn't have lost that much.
Why dont we just scrap private pensions, and pay extra tax to the government and get them to pay us when we retire? Hey hang on, that's how it used to be eh?

PIN

On using the cash machine at Tesco this morning, it instructed me to type in my PIN number. Why does it add the word "number" ? PIN stands for Personal Identification Number, so it asked me to type in my Personal Identification Number Number. - Hmmm....................................

Here we go again

That infantile moron, Alex Furguson, has blamed the ref for his teams defeat in the charity shield match. How many more times are we going to hear this pathetic self-centred dipstick bleat on and on about it's always the refs fault when his team loses? The idiot wont even talk to the BBC about it. Grow up dickhead!
