Fun on the BBC

Here is a sight with true quotes and audio proof. http://www.dubyaspeak.com/

"Countries such as ours have an obligation to step up, working together, sanding, sending a common message, to the Iranians, that, uhh, uhh -- that it's -- the behavior -- kind of -- trying to -- uhh, clandessintly develop a nukyular weapon, or using the guise of a civilian nukyular weapon program to get the know-how to develop a nukyular weapon is unacceptable."

George W. Bush, January 13, 2006

"We're not saying your democracy has to be like yours. We're just saying give your people a chance to live in a free society."

George W. Bush, January 5, 2006

:kill:

 

he still hasn't fired the guy who writes his speeches

 

He wrote this himself: "I think may need a bathroom break? Is that possible?"

Especially appreciate the question mark there... as if Condoleezza Rice knows the status of his bladder. :lol:

 

One from the US that doesn't involve Bush.

So what happens to the poor Swedish guy?
Does he get a refund?

 

If US law in this regard is like British law then either he or the seller is stuffed. Since the car was stolen property the sellor has no right to sell it and any contract in null and void. Hense that rather delightful legal term Caveat Emptor (buyer beware) :-?

 

Fantastic!

Wish I was in London today (I was there yesterday!)

 

the BBC website has a live 'whale watch' available.

 

Model making for grown ups!

Neither is particularly funny nor the result of ignorance. The first is the result of speakin extemporaneously. If you haven't tried it in front of many people and cameras (and while being questioned in a confrontational manner) then you should. It's ...enlightening.
The substance of his remarks appears rather clear nonetheless.

The second is nothing but a simple transposition. Like the first remark the meaning of what he was saying is quite clear.

I'm not a big fan of President Bush but neither do I go in for partisan ridicule and pretend that it is humorous.

 

While you have a point, it is also true that he makes a noticeably larger amount of mistakes, when compared to other contemporary politicians. I have never seen any other public speekers make grammatical errors, hesitate, and incorporate as many "uhhmms" as he does.

 

No so much fun as informative.

A modern effort at breaking old german enigma meesages. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/4763854.stm
Apparently even with modern computers they still take quite some breaking.

 

Funny road signs

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/in_pictures/4766448.stm

 

When on honeymoon, we came across a Roadsign that said "Sexhow 2"...

 

I have behaved myself since 31st of January, I have not been told off once....Ricky, I really am biting my tongue not to say anything, it is soooooooooooo tempting though!

I'll just think dirty thoughts instead!



For those of you who didn't think I could last through February (Tom) Haha! I did it!!!

 

There's a town in Frisia, in the Netherlands, called Sexbierum (sex-beer-um). Macho jokes galore!

 

Isn't there a village in Austria called F*cking? I think the English tourists steal the road signs.

 

I have heard of that.

Oh, and well done Hahn!

 

I'm very pleased with myself....it does mean that I've missed out on Roel being strict with me!

 

I'm sure if you ask him nicely... :lol:
