Now that would be Priceless !

                                                            Good day , There is something I have to get off my chest . Its being lying there a while now , and sometimes I just ignore it , and sometimes I forget all about  it . But it always comes back and annoys the shit out of me , and I then won't forgive myself for not saying anything about it . So I have set aside these few minutes either to annoy you , or remind you of how you feel in relation to what I'm about to write of .
                                                           Ok here we go . I like wine , in fact I love a nice glass of red wine . Now normally I will rave about certain red wines , especially if I have enjoyed them . Normally I would spend no more than maybe 15 euro on a bottle . I tend to go for the new world wines like a nice mature Shiraz , take an Australian Red , South African . or maybe even Chilean .All of my choices would have to be in the same price range
, as I find it obscene to pay over the top for some of the more expensive wines .
                                                           Take for instance Henri Jayer's Richebourg 1985 , a Burgundy , that has the unenviable title of being the most expensive bottle of wine in the world . You can take out a mortgage from the bank and buy this little baby for around 22 thousand Euro . Now here lies my confusion and disgust . To some people that 22.000 Euro would be a years wages , to some others even more .So for someone to go into a restaurant as you do with your wife/partner and order a bottle of this Burgundy to go with the filet mignon , for that price is just plain obscene .
                                                           I understand that the said wine has been harvested , has been nurtured , has been given the best opportunity to excel at being a magnificent bottle of wine , but 22.000 Euro ? Give me a break .
                                                          I think I will stick with my Bottles of Shiraz from Aldi ! Oh and by the way the Shiraz is an excellent choice , totally compliments the Striploin steaks I have just purchased , again in Aldi . So if you are one of these piss artists who like to impress your friends by ordering the Henri Jayer's Richebourg , or the Domaine de la Romanee-Conti , do us all a favour and give your 22.000 Euro to the poor bastard begging outside the restaurant for the price of a hamburger .  Now that would be priceless !
No need to examine or analyze me , I am Well Beyond That !

Zionism and its Supporters , A Cancer That Needs Extracting !

When you see countries committing indefensible acts on their fellow human beings , something must be said . Not just in objection to those acts , but to remind everyone exactly how evil a position can be taken by supposed civilized societies . Take the Jews for instance , because they suffered at the hands of the Nazi's , the world welcomed the survivors and leaders with open arms , saying this will never happen again . This statement in itself was to be commended and lauded by anyone with a hint of decency . The Germans had done to them things that should never be spoken off . But lest we forget , this is an example of how one society can turn on another at the drop of a hat . Now lets start thinking hypothetically , take your own country wherever you may be , lets just take the Good Old U.S.of A for example , and for the sake of argument you don't happen to be a world power with nuclear weapons and such .There you are minding your own business , and the United Nations

                                                                    Welcome to an alternative version of the news . It is not meant to provoke , though it just might .It is not meant to be sarcastic , but it probably will . It is not meant to be damning of any one individual or group , but it certainly will . And finally , it is not going to be deliberately misleading , but when this brain of mine gets into gear ( and it doesn't happen very often ) , it can say and make me do things , that afterwards , well ............maybe on reflection I shouldn't have said in the first place . But don't blame me personally , I have age on my side , and I tend to forget things when someone confronts me about things I may or may not have said . As we all know , everything is open to interpretation , and one mans yes , could easily be another mans no . Let us proceed without further ado . And he Still Is !                                                                    Welcome to

Happiest of New Years Everybody !

                                                                    In the huge scheme of things we live our lives in a way that has been somehow mapped out for us .  We wake every day and do the things that are expected to be done by others , but mostly by ourselves . Most of the time we are pleased by our efforts , and sometimes we just let ourselves down . And that's okay too , because we're not as perfect as we would like to be , or as others might expect us to be . We are as good as we want ourselves to be , or as we hope ourselves to be .                                                                    Now at this time of year I tend to get a little sentimental about stuff . You know what I'm talking about ? Family , the future , the dog and I suppose a little about our own mortality . The rest of the year seemingly it simply doesn't seem to matter . Christmas and even more importantly the change over from one year to another is so deep in our character and
