Not in any hurry, is he ? I thought he was supposed to be arriving today ? Surely some of you are starting to realise that something isnt right about all this.

God, this is tedious. You lecture everyone, then tell them they are wrong, then come out with useless irrelevant factlets you've ponced off Wikipedia in order to show everyone what a big swinging dikk you've got. And at the end of all that, you cannot even read other peoples posts properly. I never said, hinted or expelled a gentle whiff of methane gas from my sphincter that indicated that the toppling of the Shah was down to Al Qaeda. Worth an infraction. It's been a while...

hehehehee

In my opinion all of the current day coexistence/tolerance issues between Islam and everyone else go back to the toppling of the Shah. I think you make too much of the Shiite/Sunni distinction. Al Qaeda is not the only organisation at the sharp-end of the problems between Islam and everyone else.

All 4 lines going back from my grandparents appear to be broken by adoptions, sadly...

Can we have posts whining about quoting and banging on about who one is ignoring, defined as attention-seeking wind-ups and therefore infractable, seeing as they contribute NOTHING to the topic being discussed ? Some people may object to my frequently negative/cynical opinion, but I stick on-topic a lot better than many...

By "reasoning" do mean supporting my argument ? When someone says "why do you think that" ? or "what evidence causes you to think that" ?, you are asking if I try to answer ? Of course I do. I have tried it on this side of posts into response to a couple of dubai_phils posts already ? I already explained that I find the delay strange due to my own relocation experiences, and broken down the activities involved in relocating a little. What on earth do you want from me, Minty ? I see you as one of the more fair-minded people on here, always arguing some sort of moderation, but in this case I think even you are having trouble looking past my name at the top of the posts.

What force controlled by the mods forces your eyes open to read my quotes ? Really, this constant whining is as much attention-seeking as I am accused of.

Of course he will, would have been nice to see him thrown in the ring for 10mins at the end of the Leicester game if things werent going to well, thats all. Would be troubled if he is not in the Cardiff squad though.

Completely agree. I view Iran as the falling domino that triggered the fundamentalist uprising from the 70s onwards. I also think its fall would trigger the opposite process. There is simply too much at stake here for fundamenalist Islam to loosen its grip in Iran.

You want the Iranians to revolt in the same way as the Syrians, even though the Syrian authorities are getting directions from the Iranian authorities on how to manage the rebellion. Well, seems to me if you rebel in the same way against a regime with the same mentality, you will get the same result; dictator still in place, many innocent people including babies tortured and slaughtered.

Ooops. My bad. Has he got family too ?

Still being massively used at ice hockey matches on the Hammond organs and sound loops.

He's 19 years old, FFS !! How many family f**king heirlooms is he going to take !??!! More like clothes and a stack of CDs / DVDs. Besides, booking and packing can be done third party. All he needs to do is sign things. The more you argue this, the more I think the delay is due to a personal requirement for time rather than a logisitcal issue, which of course cannot be delegated.

You seem to forget who our CEO is. If you reckon 7million is a good deal, I suspect he would consider 15million. He serious reamed Arse over the AO-C deal.

This is beginning to sound like a Huxley, Orwell or Bradbury novel...

You describe Abbott's cleavage as "eye candy" ? Eeewwwwww....

Is he getting colic yet ? As I sit, waiting for my 4th boy in May, I am viewing the colic with trepidation...

Is there a European release date for the Kindle Fire yet ?

My immediate thought. Simply a destabillisation tactic. In our postion, and with NCs reputation, they would know they would be looking to source around 15m for this move.

Didnt have to do all of that himself - would have got help for all of at least the first line. As I said, we dont know how much personal time he felt he needed. But I dont think this is down to logistics, or if it is, its been sub-optimally planned.

Yes, because babies being tortured and having their heads cut off are just plain statistics in the bigger picture of satisfying left-wing Western sensibilities...

So now China has spoken (even though it obviously has some as-of-yet not known, as blatantly cynical and selfish end-game as the US is supposed to have), are we permitted now to believe that Iran are not the clear-cut victims in all of this as you were making out before ? Verbal ? Pap ? saintforever ? buctootim ? Since when has China represented the voice-of-reason on this planet ?

Wow, another pompous lecture....
