The Guardian gives Madonna's new film "W.E." a less-than-flattering review.
The fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.

What do we want?
Devolution-max with an English money safety-net.
When do we want it?
In a few years hopefully!
I have no ill-will to the Scots, and the scaremongering about their future reminds me of the crap spread about the UK leaving the EU. But you're beginning to sound like a moaning wife who wont leave her husband for fear she can't afford as nice a house on her own.

The Guardian can't be trusted on film reviews. I watched the BBC's version of "Great Expectations" on Polly Toynbee's glowing review. Not only do I not belive she ever read the book, I doubt the producer did either! Knew I should have trusted Peter Hitchens review instead..markfiend wrote:The Guardian gives Madonna's new film "W.E." a less-than-flattering review.

Well, the Megaupload affair has raised worldwide attention - and discussions.

i like this quote:January is a cornucopia of technological tipping and frantic futurology, but do you ever get a nagging fear that trends are passing you by?
In an interview about the internet with the Sunday Times in 1999, Douglas Adams memorably satirised a common attitude towards new technology and trends.
Everything that's already in the world when you're born is just normal, suggested Adams. Anything created between birth and the age of 30 is incredibly exciting and creative and with any luck you can make a career out of it.
But whatever is invented after you've turned 30 is against the natural order of things and the beginning of the end of civilisation as we know it -until it's been around for about 10 years, when it gradually turns out to be all right really.
