Posted on 31 January 2007 by

It’s time to act like I’m older and more prudish than I actually am. Though I do mean it. Basically there was an article in the Education Guardian yesterday about young kids and porn. There’s a lot of stuff in … Continue reading →

Posted on 8 November 2006 by

So, I’ll start off by saying I know next to nothing about US Politics. But this bought a smile to my face. Everything I know about Rumseld indicates he’s an absolutely reprehensible idiot. I just found out that Nixon..that’s right … Continue reading →
