   Chumbawamba At Ascot

   http://paulstott.typepad.com/ i_intend_to_escape_and_co/ 2008/ 11/ chumbawamba-a…

   George Bernard Shaw made the famous comment that horse racing is a conspiracy between the working classes and the upper classes, against the middle class.  At a chilly Ascot yesterday, I was reflecting on how few Anarchists have any interest in the turf - Class War founder Martin Wright is the only exception that springs to mind.

   Who Had Bubby Dacer Killed?

   http://www.filipinovoices.com/ who-had-bubby-dacer-killed

   I knew Bubby Dacer like most everyone among Manila’s brotherhood of journalists. Manong Bubby, the soft-spoken Bicolano, loved to wear white (like basketball coaching legend Tito Eduque). Provincial journalists were particularly close to him and the door of his room-cum-office at the Manila Hotel was always open, with his staff always ready to receive inquiries.

   Desis in the (White) House!

   http://www.sepiamutiny.com/ sepia/ archives/ 005529.html

   The Petition To Remove the Trash Queen From Her Trash Heap

   http://gentillygirl.com/ 2008/ 11/ 23/ the-petition-to-remove-the-trash-queen-fr…

   The petition still moves forward in an attempt to have Mayor Nagin remove his over-educated, incompetent and incoherent Head of our Department of Sanitation for her complete inability to tell the truth about her department and her total disdain for any who question her. Sign the petition please.
