After I had been told that these new "salads" at MacDees' are apparently quite nice I overcame my inhibition against the place and tried one today; not bad, but not really much going for it either. But the sauce really caught my attention and leads me to ask, why George Bush is being used for advertising purposes in a non-ironic manner?

Lee Harris writes:
Marriage was [. . . .]defined as between a man and a woman? Well, yes, but only in the sense that a cheese omelet is defined as an egg and some cheese — without the least intention of insulting either orange juice or toast by their omission from this definition. Orange juice and toast are fine things in themselves — you just can’t make an omelet out of them.

In a column in which Ferdinand Mount criticises the lack of a social conseravtive approach to improving society there’s this:
How long before the compensation culture spreads north and young offenders are condemned to make nothing riskier than daisy chains?

In case you haven’t been guided there by any other means yet, let me point you to these party political broadcasts. The really surprising thing I found about them was the slick quality. You really could easily mistake them for real, and they only go slightly over the top with the message too.

Probably the best collection of election posters is Blimpish, who has been avidly Photoshopping away these past days. Go immediately hence and have a look at his poster designs for the
Conservatives, 1, 2, 3
Labour
1, 2, 3, 4
and even Respect, 1, 2
He also has some shocking revelations about the origins of one of our major politicians, but see for yourself . . .

After the last online sould-searching test, I though I might do another, just to make sure about that sexuality thing. So, Channel 4’s Gayometer reassures me that
TIMMYHAWK IS 46% GAY!
Congratulations! You’ve scored right in the middle and are a well adjusted and happy hetero man!

Well Labour has certainly secured its election victory now. As its new pledges boldy proclaim:
"Your family better off", "Your family treated better and faster", "Your child achieving more", "Your country's borders protected", "Your community safer" "Your children with the best start".

. . . so here’s some stuff that’s not particurlarly serious, picked up in different places over the past few days:
-Demons in my pants! (Pay particular attention to the age of those involved and the total number of congregation members!)
-“I’m ambitious”
-Volkswagen gets with the times
-Serious action against the demographic downturn!
-Slow progress in Iraq? Blame the wrong sand!
-Talking of Iraq: a spotlight on occupation troops running amok . . .
- . . . and it gets worse. Sheer evilness.
-World Beard and Moustache Championships, I wont be entering though
-this is quite sweet, though I’m not quite sure what to make of the product title? I mean how would you . . . Oh, never mind.
More riveting stuff where that came from too
-I’m not quite sure whether this is real.
-Muslims for sale, and more (particularly the “jihad”).
Well, I leave it at that, have a nice day.

Feeling lonely? Just can’t find the rigth partner to go forth and multiply? Well, help is at hand:
“For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife and they will become one flesh” Genesis 2:24
I know I shouldn’t mock this sort of thing, you know, being an Anglican myself and it being the Lord’s day all that, but still there’s something slightly comical about the whole thing.

Listening to banjo music is a bit like dressing up in women’s clothing and masturbating in front of ‘Bargain Hunt’.

Occasionally us Guardian readers are accused of being soft on security issues, on being doves and all that. Not all like that though, and certainly here’s one you can’t really accuse of being an instinctive pacifist. Hawkish indeed, or what that be Jaguarish?

You are good at feeling and being in your

You don't support Democrats.
Why should your ketchup?
