Bank holidays - whoever invented them needs a fucking medal :) and whoever invented the 5 day working week should be shot! In these hard times of unemployment, we should trial a 2 day working week and just employ more people to cover the week. I could do that.

As the majority of bank holidays are based around religion, this is a major problem with the athiest movement, if we stop "celebrating" Easter does this mean we lose the chocolate eggs and the days off??? It's almost enough to send me to church!

Plus chocolate eggs?? where were they in the bible?? Did the big J leave little bags of mini eggs on the table at the last supper? Somewhere along the way, someone high up in religion realised they need to get the kids more interested in Easter and what better way that to tempt them in with chocolate and hey it worked. Only Christmas wins in the popularity steaks, as they came up with the jolly fat man dishing out loads of pressies.

So yes, religion may have it's faults but hey, I'm off work for 4 days and got loads to chocolate to eat so it can't all be bad :D

This is the only life we have and if we engage with it charasmatically, we can then get the best out of it :D

Bah, HP has gone from FB?????

Knowing just how lazy I am, I suspect that this means I'll be on HP less and less as it means actually changing websites and logging differently. It may not have been removed but my handy little logon icon has gone and so unless someone at Facebook central is playing silly buggers, it's beem removed!

Ah well, it may all get sorted soon enough, I was getting some very annoying "hold on a sec" messages yesterday. I held for more than a sec and nothing happened!

In Other Words

What classic 80s song is this:

You had gained employment as one who serves in a place where they sell brightly colored alcoholic drinks at the time I made your acquaintance.
I selected you from all the others, held you and violently moved you up and down, and pointed you in the opposite direction - transformed you into a fresh person.
At the present date, after a period of sixty months, this planet lies in front of your toes. Your achievement of a favourable outcome has not proved difficult.
However, remember that I placed you in your current position and I am able to return you to your previous lower position."

Answer in white below:

You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
When I met you
I picked you out, I shook you up, and turned you around
Turned you into someone new
Now five years later on youve got the world at your feet
Success has been so easy for you
But dont forget its me who put you where you are now
And I can put you back down too

Someone asked me to write a poem for them, I'm terrible at English but I thought I'd give it a go. It's not really aimed at anyone in particular, I just like the sentiment.

Because you asked

From the chats that we've had,
your charm and wit are clear,
may I never see you sad,
or even shed a tear

Your words are always wise,
and bring a warmth to my soul,
I value your advise,
you help me keep control.

You're never cruel or unpleasant,
of that I'm always glad,
your chat is rarely flippant,
and your spelling ain't that bad.

Drift off to a secluded beach
with warm sand on the ground,
A cool drink in reach,
this paradise we've found.

sunset below the midnight sky,
your smile makes me beam,
The stars glisten from uphigh,
it feels like a dream.

The universe is vast,
with beauty in every place,
our friendship will last,
forever across cyberspace
