Today is the anniversary of the 7/7 London Bombings, and as Jennie points out, the fact most of you hadn't even realised that is the best outcome of all.
Good. It's a shame our own politicians had to milk it (and everything else whether it technically existed or not) in order to reduce our civil liberties, but obscurity is an excellent fate for "Britain's 9/11".
And yeah, I suppose I'm reminding people by writing this post, which would seem to be against the point, but it's worth celebrating the victories when we find them. The fact that almost no-one cares about "7/7" is a big victory against the morons and manipulators who seek to make us see the world as "us and them", and inventing phrases like the "Axis of Evil".
So let's keep Not Doing That. Good work, all. |

You have just reminded me of something; it's kettle-on time again. Mmm, TEA.
TBH. I wondered whether Brown was going to attend the Jackson funeral... Seeing as how he is down with the celebs and all...
I thought about it when they announced Jackson's funeral date. But today it didn't cross my mind once. I thought it was just 'cause I was in California but I see I'm not the only one.
Dude, much more important anniversary. It's 4 years since I added you and H to my friends list, which is, y'know, more useful.
Damn you. Now I want Tea. One of my fave quotes from your collection has to be this:
"The BBC paused news coverage to show *Eastenders*. That'd be the nationwide fear, terror and panic, then." | |
