To lure customers in, a big sign went up that read: "Why pay more, Haircuts, $6.00" Frustrated that they would lose customers, the established shop put up a sign the next day. It read: "We fix $6.00 Haircuts! |

I am fairly well travelled and have seen some things in my time, but I get the feeling that once his people string him up from a lamppost and let the press in, the world will be wringing its hands that we could allow such savages to thrive. Still, The BBC is doing its bit. Selling them Teletubbies and Dr Who. I'd love to be able (note the clause) to have his haircut. There again, I speak from the perspective of a slap head. |

China has said that it does not want any nuclear testing on the Korean peninsula and that China "continues to play a positive role in ensuring the Korean Peninsula has a soft landing." Of course, N. Korea HAS called the President of S. Korea "scum" and "an old bitch." The sooner the Kim Dynasty becomes part of the past the better. |

17 Apr 14 - 03:03 PM (#3619807) Subject: RE: BS: Bad Hair Cuts - 10% discounts From: GUEST,Musket Luckily Clancy's novels are so full of hilarious gaffs we can just about discount any lessons from them. Here, they stopped being best sellers when Dan Brown took over the bollocks scenario. (Clancy's amazing view of "Brits" was rather unnerving so when not a single person here fits the description he describes, it can confuse some of our cousins.) Hopefully Kim Young 'un reads them though so next year he will be sporting a Sir Basil type flop. |

17 Apr 14 - 03:43 PM (#3619815) Subject: RE: BS: Bad Hair Cuts - 10% discounts From: GUEST Red Storm Rising had relatively little to do with Britons or their characters. However, I agree with your raw assessment. I disliked Patriot Games because his treatment of the Irish and English was so bland. The movie was a travesty. While we could sit back and tear Clancy apart, he wrote a few excellent novels and his assessment of some world situations has been close to the mark. And it is that to which I referred earlier. |
