This is what did happen.
I hooked up with a lad from Milan to look for a house in Leeds. He was doing a PhD in memory metals with respect to knitting [...]

Time for some Impallin’
John McCain has done the smartest thing he has ever done since his Skyhawk went tits-up over Hanoi and he pulled eject. Barack Obama is now toast. They were even cooing over Mrs Palin on the BBC this morning.
John McCain might be an old git but Barack Obarmy chose another old git in Joe [...]

From The Register:
Back to Ben Westwood. He has put together a book titled Fuck Fashion. He believes that this is going to fall foul of the oncoming law on extreme porn - and he is livid. Of Jack Straw and “Wacky” Jacqui Smith, he adds: “They are trying to dismantle our basic human rights. We [...]
George W Bush is a Moron
There was a thread on Samizdata yesterday about George W Bush’s intellectual credentials. I didn’t comment. I didn’t want to get into a pointless slagging match with Billy Beck on the relative merits of various early supersonic fighters (I’d rather take him on in Strike Fighters - of the “When the skirts got shorter and [...]

Quick, hide your knickers under the bed!
It turns out in the UK the council can spy on who you’re (assumed) to be having sex with.
To those of you lucky enough to not be au fait with UK local government the Council Tax is a levy that our locally elected parasites piss up the wall and use to empty your bins - [...]
Full Circle
Flying near the ground, the Americans found the German light flak as accurate as ever, and they suffered heavy losses from enemy ground gunners. On one occasion a Mustang pilot rescued his squadron commander, Major McKennon, when he was hit by flak while strafing Prenzlau airfield, near Berlin. McKennon baled out some six miles from [...]

Narrated ‘Amr bin Maimun:
During the pre-Islamic period of ignorance I saw a she-monkey surrounded by a number of monkeys. They were all stoning it, because it had committed illegal sexual intercourse. I too, stoned it along with them.
Instant hate crime
Damn, I guess it had to come, after all, computers can be used to automate ANYTHING.
And here it is - if you are Canadian use your computer to generate your very own hate crime. You too, for only the minimum effort, can get the Canadian Human Rights Commission after you, and in defiance of the [...]
Ezra
Just happened to see this on the net, 9 little known facts about Ezra Levant -
And just to remind you, here is Ezra, in full flow, confronting the bovine Shirleen McGovern. Look at her, bored, laid back, and uninterested. At this point, she just knows this is all a waste of time and a pointless use [...]
Notoriety
IanB, graphic novelist, gay hobbit porn aficionado and general wit about town, is making his mark.
A comment he once made on Samizdata , to wit -
Imagine telling somebody twenty years ago that by 2007, it would be illegal to smoke in a pub or bus shelter or your own vehicle or that there would be [...]
LHC Rap
