The Mad Hatter's Tea Party.


I see that the President of Iran has decided to hold a conference on "The Holocaust". The Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA) has announced that "There will be a conference that will research the topic of the Holocaust and all its dimensions in the future".

Goody.

You might be surprised to read that I am totally in favour of such an event taking place. You will see all these so called respectable Arab leaders going off to Iran to discuss the myth of the Holocaust and how right President Ahmadinejad was when he stated last month that "They (i.e. the Jews) have invented a myth that Jews were massacred, and place this above God, religions and the prophets."

I hope the conference lasts for at least a week and that there are plenty of photo-opportunities so that every one in the world knows exactly who attended.

Then the world's real power-brokers can submit a list of these modern-day Nazis to the U.N (like that's really going to happen...right?) and the rest of us can pray that these Hitlerites live long enough to regret their decision to attend this obnoxious waste of time and money.

See, the conference isn't such a bad idea after all, is it?

London's Win Is My Loss.

I can barely conceal my overwhelming enthusiasm for the IOC's decision to award the city I live in, management of the 2012 Olympic Games. I'm not going to harp on about why I'm so against the decision, suffice to point you to the blog I posted back in June. So now I have to spend the next seven years listening to endless debates and counter-debates as to how prepared/unprepared this city is and whether anything at all will change. It makes you almost wish you were listening to some gossip about the Royal Family instead (I said almost ). One positive outcome is that we beat the French (once again) and if I think about it from that angle, I can come to the conclusion that hosting the games not be such a bad thing after all. Guess what....I'm already beginning to feel better!

The Bomb Shelter

I'm feeling pretty down today. I don't know if its the shitty weather (grey skies and nothing but rain) or the fact that the alarm clock woke me up at the ungodly hour of 4.30 this morning - but I really don't feel happy. I'm pondering whether I'm finding my marriage or parenthood more challenging right now. My throat is raw from all the screaming I've done at the kids over the last few days and my T.Q (temper quotient) is at an all time low. You sneeze at the wrong volume and I'll bite your head off. I'm an absolute bastard to live with and I know it. I prefer not to engage in conversation with any of the family because I can't be bothered to be sociable. At least on my blog, I can let my emotions rip, without someone interrupting my rant. The underlying cause for it all? It could be a growing sense of panic that school is approaching and I really haven't done any preparation yet. When I sit down to start work, I get a feeling of total paralysis...
