beeeeep!

So.

Saddam has been caught. Interesting breakage of the Geneva Convention by the US, again, by displaying him in the international media. They love making big noises about laws and then breaking them when it suits them, don't they? Like the whole UN resolution thing before the war started.... You know, when the self-styled "Leader of the Free World" waited to hear the result of the 'democratic' Security Council vote about whether to invade Iraq or not and then completely ignored the "no" vote because it didn't suit them.

So much for democracy and law.

And, of course, for those in the UK: Soham. That's that, then. He did it, she covered for him because she didn't know or refused to believe it.

Thing is... every time I hear about another child gone missing and the big search for them (Millie Dowler for example) I always think of the other one hundred and fifty thousand people who vanish in the UK every year that we never hear about. Is it that those who we do hear about have families with better police/media connections and/or money than those we don't?

What about the rest of them? Does no one care? Why aren't they in the news too?



On a more trvial note, I'm glad we'll be getting rid of Karaoke (also known as Pop) Idol this Saturday. Finally. Mind you, it'll only make room for other crap to come on. And the charts will be polluted with more karaoke eejits for, oh, at least the next few months. You know, just until they (thankfully) fade out of existance.

Oh well, I can dream.

And considering that "the fat ones" usually get voted out long before now, I reckon Michelle is only there because of 'affirmative action'. I could be wrong, of course. It's not like I watch it, it's just an idea I came up with.

Shall I shut up about it now?
