Yes Little Hawk it would be funny if it wasn't so pathetic.
Do you think there is any hope for this generation of spoilt children with their weakness for heaping ridicule on one another?
Remember the fun they had with Mrs Palin?

I've just been reading a wonderful book about the enclosure of the common land in England and how it signalled the end of self- sufficiency and the peasant culture.
All the old peasant crafts were lost and people were forced to buy the necessities of life, which meant economic enslavement.....the sale of their lives, freedom, and strength, to buy back what was actually theirs of right.
The same is happening today, while we support our "favourites", and ridicule our "enemies".

Sometimes I feel depressed by our foolishness, how do you keep so eternally optimistic?
