    What do they say? “Be Careful What You Wish For”…..it may come true!

    I remember an X-Files episode where someone wished for world peace.

    From that moment, there was not a single sound anywhere.

    All the people disappeared, all the machines stopped working.

    No music, no talking, no sounds at all…just complete silence. They were on their own, in complete silence in an empty world.

    A song my daughter wrote, composed and performed. Unfortunately it’s nowhere on the web to be able to post a link, it has a haunting tune :?

    An open heart
    In which desire burns
    Wide eyed worship of the love you yearn
    15 minutes until the glory of fame
    15 minutes to run from the pain
    Hold your brother with exaggerated trust
    Seduce your lover with a glorified lust
    You have to reach
    To raise the stars
    Move your face
    And hide those scars
    It’s great relief
    Confessions so pure
    Pure as the powder
    You need it to cure
    Whisers of fate
    Breathing down your neck
    Is it the darkenss
    That you forget

    What a life to live
    What a world to see
    So much more you’ll find
    So much more in me

    They want you
    To touch you
    To taste you
    To free you
    My heart aches
    My head spins
    What’s real
    I’m dreaming
    Tearing my
    Soul in two
    To taste you
    To feel you
    Tears falling
    Skin crawling
    I want you
    I need you

    What a life to live
    What a world to see
    So much more you’ll find
    So much more in me

    beautiful susie :) if you have it in an MP3 file.. you could post in in youtube yourself. :)

    My skin is like a map, of where my heart has been
    And I can’t hide the marks, but it’s not a negative thing
    So I let down my guard, drop my defences, down by my clothes
    I’m learning to fall, with no safety net, to cushion the blow

    I bruise easily, so be gentle when you handle me
    There’s a mark you leave, like a love heart, carved on a tree
    I bruise easily, can’t scratch the surface without moving me
    Underneath I bruise easily, I bruise easily

    I found your finger prints on a glass of wine
    Do you know your leaving them all over this heart of mine too
    If I never take this leap of faith I’ll never know
    So I’m learning to fall with no safety net to cushion the blow

    I bruise easily, so be gentle when you handle me
    There’s a mark you leave, like a love heart carved on a tree
    I bruise easily, can’t scratch the surface without moving me
    Underneath I bruise easily, I bruise easily

    Anyone who, can touch you, can hurt you, or heal you
    Anyone who, can reach you, can love you, or leave you

    So be gentle
    So be gentle
    So be gentle
    So be gentle

    I bruise easily, so be gentle when you handle me
    There’s a mark you leave, like a love heart, carved on a tree
    I bruise easily, can’t scratch the surface without moving me
    Underneath I bruise easily, I bruise easily

    I bruise easily, so be gentle when you handle me
    There’s a mark you leave, like a love heart, carved on a tree
    I bruise easily, can’t scratch the surface without moving me
    Underneath I bruise easily, I bruise easily

    I bruise easily
    I bruise easily

    I love that song so much. Thanks for posting :)

    So, having sold off our gold reserves for a fraction of their worth, Gordon Brown is set to sell off our libraries, our railways, our power supplies and our betting shops.

    I think we should perhaps join him, and have garage sales, and car boot sales, and do sponsored cake bakes in order to help bring down our countries collosal debts.

    Failing that… lets just blow up parliament.

    If you expect me to feel sorry for her.. you are going to be seriously disappointed!

    She was probably promoted to her level of incompetence. That is perhaps a reflection of our society, because it seems to happen in every walk of life. She was paid a vast salary to do a very very important job. Her department failed. Someone has to take responsibility.

    There were lots of people who were guilty of missing opportunities to save Baby P. There are probably scores of other children suffering now as a direct result of missed opportunities. If you do not make an example of someone, but allow people to simply “get away” with things……. the other people, in other areas of this country, doing the same job, will not take a long close look at THEIR OWN working practices, and tighten up their ships. The fear of losing their own jobs in similar circumstances will be exceptional encouragement for them all to make sure their departments DO NOT make the same mistakes. The end result of that will be that small children are not left to the mercy of torturing bullies.

    Plus.. wrong is subjective… what one lot of people think is wrong, another lot might think is perfectly fine.

    Perhaps they should all be removed from their positions, placed with other better run departments and made to go back to school.

    There are bound to be many culpable people when a department is so badly run. But, management is top down. If the person at the top is ok, the people beneath them change their working practices until things end up being better. Of course, I am generalising… but
    if she had been excellent at her job, then even if the others were rubbish, there would have been sufficient evidence that she had tried to change things …. and she would not have been in this situation.

    On that basis we should have the Monster Raving Loony party as our next government.

    Exhume ‘screaming Lord Sutch’ I say and let him run the country.

    I thought that the current govrnement was a monster and raving and filled with loonies!

    As for Lord Stuch, he was ahead of his time.

    The quiz is always a hoot.
