Who'da Thunk it?
Greece won euro 2004, how odd... i have many things to write about today so please bear with me. Firstly the other night me and the parents went to see a queen tribute band at the good old central theatre. Starring, some bloke who won stars in your eyes as Freddy Mercury, and surprisingly he was really really good, though i was most impressed by Brian May's alter ego who was delivering face melting solo after face melting solo, even if he didn't have enough hair :), best one was the bass player however, he was so obviously gay, with that little smile that gay people do and the way he sort of...erm...wiggled his head while singing along, this man was gloriously camp, more camp that a picture of simon, it was hilarious! Next day we went to another motor show with the Jensen ownwers club, considerably less enjoyable than the last one, mostly because the weather alternated between sweltering hot and pissing it down all day (ALL day) and we were outside, nice... And now for one of my occasional political rants! I am pleased to see that we're going to start legal procedings to get the last few Brits out of Guantanamo bay. Now i know what you are going t say, "Rob! how un-american of you, you're certainly displaying a lack of patriotism, Somebody call the FBI! We've got an Evildoer here!!!" but before you do let me spell out a few things (my facts may be slightly skewed so please correct any errors), There have been over 40 suicide attempts in camp delta by the "illegal combatants" incarcerated there, who have because of the new classification invented by the americans, no legal rights at all. My problem is that if they're so sure that the people they've got there are evildoers, then why don't they put them on trial and PROVE IT USING LEGAL MEANS! at the moment most of the information they use comesa from torture (they don't call it that but the conditions within camp delta are definately classed as psychological torture) They are made to keep their hands raised in the air for hours on end and the lights are never turned off. when interrogated they are put in a darkened room and made to watch music videos such as Metallica's enter sandman for hours! if that's not psychological torture i don't know what is. and in reference to all the people to have been released form x-ray and delta, can you guess how many have been charged with anything? NONE! not one, not a sausage, most of them seem to have been picked up almost arbitrarily by americans in afganistan and iraq. CLOSE IT DOWN!!! investigate them legally and then go out there and find the REAL terrorists. Bought razorlights album this morning, sounds pretty hot, go. buy. That's it for now i think, TTFN todays t-shirt(s):1- Rape is never a laughing matter, unless it involves a clown 2- God is busy May i help you? todays music: Razorlight-Golden Touch # posted by The Prisoner | 9:34 AM | |
