tories, eh?

[//\/\/]

jesus, getting back to the past with job cuts and tax-breaks (one for poor, one for rich, go figure the order) the tories have now taken to, almost literally, putting the lunatics in charge of the asylum.

a man on a health committee who believes that blood doesn't clot under a full moon?! if this wasn't serious, i'd be laughing my arse off.

I had a moment thinking about this the other day. was just chilling at a pub here in the uk and I was talking with the cook. he told me he had a microbiology degree. "same as the bartender, right Rus?" the silent giant behind the bar just nodding while making a mojito. I mean what kind of a world is this anyway? I don't care if they aren't phd's put some money towards lab work, cure cancer for fuck's sake.

but who'll serve drinks?


edit - just realised the answer is, of course, rog - our resident chemist/pisshead!

rog is the last person you want serving drinks. they'd never make it to the table

[Rog]

wrong! they would make it to the table alright but i might spill a little

AND....i'll taste test them first for you to ensure they're suitable for human consumption

strangely enough i'm a microbilogist too and i cant spell for fuk
