The Passionate Shepherd to His Love
by
Christopher Marlowe
Come live with me and be my Love,
And we will all the pleasures prove
That hills and valleys, dale and field,
And all the craggy mountains yield. =
Love's Simple Deed
Rivals plans seem to end it all,
A gun, a pop, a deadly call.
With Chino's bullet in thy chest,
I hold thee to my loving breast.
Love, we never shall despair,
Hold my hand, we're halfway there.
Maria

1st - Neil Ramsay with:
A lonely young lad is totally into tractors. He knows all the latest models.
One day though, he sees a tractor run over a dog and he becomes less interested in tractors because every time he thinks of them he is reminded of that poor old dog.
So, ten years pass and the lad (now a young man) walks into a bar with his girlfriend.
The girlfriend declares "God I hate it when it's so darn smoky in these places"
The lad takes a deep breath and then proceeds to breathe in all the smoke in the bar.
His girlfriend says "Man! how did you do that??"
The young man replied "Didn't you know that I'm an ex-tractor fan"
=
One weekend, a country lane walks into a pub and orders himself a drink.
Some other roads and lanes are all hanging out at the hotel bar too.
The old barman points over to the corner:
"See that motorway. I suggest you avoid him. He's the maddest road in here"
Only soon, a silly little orange dirt-track swaggers defiantly into the pub.
A chilling silence descends.
The motorway despondently downs his drink, hops deftly to his feet and makes for the fire exit.
"Hey, and I thought he was the maddest road in here?" says the lane.
The barman smiles:
"Indeed so, but that orange dirt-track is a cycle-path"

Indeed, but is the blatant massacre of the teenage American students killed by the loner Cho Seung-Hui's relentless weapon a fitting, legitimate price to pay for freedom or not?

Boromir quote: "One does not simply walk into Mordor. Its black gates are guarded by more than just orcs. There is evil there that does not sleep, and the Great Eye is ever watchful. It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust, the very air you breathe is a poisonous fume. Not with ten thousand men could you do this. It is folly." =
Bush: "OK Tony, here's the tactical plan. We send our soldiers to war over in Iraq. I must finish what Daddy started. You also must lie, shoulder the blame for destabilising the region, starting a rotten jihad and the bloodshed and terrorism. When your inept outfit fire you, we send you back over to them as our latest middle-east peace envoy."

=
Unless of course these persons have been subjectively convicted of 'potential suspicion' by the demented hothead Bush or his malevolent US government henchmen as part of their incompetent 'War on Terror'. In this case, the 'atheist felons' may be indefinitely confined on Guantanamo Bay and interrogated at length in that unethical 'court', never to get a legal trial.

LONG CATEGORY, October 2007:
2nd - Neil Ramsay with:
"In nineteen seventy two, a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit.
These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground.
Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune.
If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the A-Team."
=
Seven years ago, a redneck republican movement was sent to Capitol Hill after a vote they didn't win fairly.
These madmen then commenced a clumsy programme of devious myth and international conflict.
Today, mocked by many, these veteran idiots can exist only to further their fortunes.
If you need a war begun or if you're momentously stupid, perhaps you can commission "The B-Team".

On the twenty fifth day in December,
We Europeans should all try to remember,
That poor boy who was born,
A genuine wee capricorn,
Had one holiest king alone as a father.
