“That burns,” Patrick Collins said Thursday.

I am not a sheep, I have my own mind
I have had enough of being told what and how to think
Whilst we are still allowed the remnants of free speech,

I also reserve the right to discuss less controversial matters should I feel the urge.

Priorities Mr President, priorities
I have read this on a few sites recently but this time it was on Three Beers Later:
Presidents and Prime Ministers are always there to be seen when there is some sporting achievement to celebrate. What's the chance of Cameron being there when the Test Team returns from Australia? And when did we last see anyone in this government to Wootton Bassett when the bodies of fallen soldiers are returned?
