i loved stick it. it's a great movie and i will tell anybody and everybody probably several times to see it
wonder when we are going to get a chance to watch some of the david attenborough planet earth shows i've been taping
i love the way attenborough is just referred to as david by me, princess and my mum. princess is a long-term fan. she's been learning about all things nature from david for years. when other kids were dancing to wiggles and watching play school, she was learning about giant water pythons that can ingest a whole cow; breeding cycles of almost everything that breathes and the difference between mammals and marsupials.
david is the best. it'll be a truly sad day when he dies. princess cried when, after watching an abba documentary, she learned that they broke up decades ago. she also was very upset to hear roald dahl was no longer with us. but i think when david moves on, we will have to light candles and have some sort of ritual.

I'm more stilton than roquefort.
I think roquefort gets the rap because of the whole thing where it was banned a few years ago as the milk is unpastuerised.
Why is no western government labelling the Israeli government as hostile or terrorist wehn they're bombing Beirut and not Hezbollah controlled regions?
hey elaine. will try stilton next time. we have the roquefort moldering in the fridge. should try and eat it i suppose. yeah, it's that whole illicit thing that makes people [baa] go for stuff.
and your question re the israeli government. the answer i think is the same reason why the alliance invaded iraq, why the australian government is not pushing for david hicks to be sent back here. it's all about staying on the "right" people's right sides.
be careful, if you talk about the israeli government as being hostile or terrorist, you might get painted as an anti-semite.
I say briefly: Best! Useful information. Good job guys.
