O.K. I'm fed up of this now.
I try to follow a blog. I type in the extact address where I'm suppose to. I follow all the provided steps. It comes up with 'you are now following ....' I go away to update my own blog. I come back to find it is saying 'you are not following any blogs at the moment'. What do I do to make it stick? Because I'm fed up of it swallowing the blogs I am following.

Madness in EU
So Brussels has had some scientist 'prove' that what is unhealthy.
Apparently water does not actually help the body stay hydrated. Did somebody not tell these scientists that 80% of the human body is water? And just how did they test to see whether water helps hydrate the body? Dry someone out until they looked like an Egyptian mummy and the give them a glass of water to drink? "No change in appearance? Well looks like water doesn't help hydrate the body."
Why is, since time out of mind, when you find someone severely dehydrated you gave them little sips of water to rehydrate them? What do they think makes up the greater volume of all drinks other than water?
Also, what on earth was Brussels doing, wasting their money on a study that is not going to help anyone and might in fact might actually damage the economy further because water can no longer be sold as a 'healthy' drink? When they could have been studying something like making a wind turbine that is ultra efficient? Or maybe a solar panel that doesn't damage the environment in production? I.e. something that could be patanent and sold to countries that have money and who are trying to do their bit to keep the environment clean. Sold, as in we make produce and give it to someone else in return for money. Isn't that what everyone is trying to do at the moment to stop the world going into recession?
Or am I just being too sensible and clear thinking and solving the problem too simply? After all if it's not complex enough a politician won't understand it.

Speed Cameras
In light of the M5 accident I think that the discussion about speed cameras should be reconsidered.
Point one - speed limits are put there for a very good reason! They are there to protect people, children and pets from inconsiderate jerks who do not automatically computer - built up area therefore there may be children/pets around = I'd better slow down!
Point two - speed cameras were put there to enforce this law since even before the cuts we did not have enough police men to do so.
Point three - the speeding fine is not just the government making money, it is your punishment for breaking the law. Don't like the punishment? Don't break the law!
Point four - considering how bad the M5 accident would have been if the vehicles involved and around them were going faster than 70mph, the government should not be considering putting the speed limit up to 80mph, they should be enforcing the law, as it is, with a zero tolerance policy and up the fine to at least 1000 pounds. If you can't afford to drive your car, you can't break the speed limit and therefore put a live, or lives, at risk. If this makes getting to work difficult then next time don't break the speed limit.
Point five - If you do not like this opinion please bare in mind this - speeding puts both your life and the lives of the others around you at risk! If in the course of you speeding you hit somebody and kill them you are the one who must live with being a killer for the rest of your life!
Point six - If you do not care if you kill someone while speeding - what kind of human are you?

Anarchy
Anarchy. For millennium politicians, political commentators and the compilers of dictionaries (who are funded by politicians) have done their best to convince us that this is the state when mankind devolves into a blood bath of violence and destruction, the ultimate chaos. They are wrong.
Anarchy means 'to be without leaders', not 'to be without order'.
In short, true anarchy is the moment when every single living human being takes full and total responsibility for their own actions. When every single human being stops saying 'I won't steal because I'll get caught' and starts saying 'I won't steal because it is wrong'.
Politicians have told us that this is impossible but if we didn't believe that without our leaders we would destroy our selves in uncontrolled aggression they wouldn't have jobs, would they?
Therefore I post this challenge to all my readers. For the next week don't make any excuses for your behaviour. Instead, before you act or speak, ask yourself 'how would I feel if someone did/said what I'm thinking of doing/saying to me?'
See how responsible you can be.

Thoughts
Alright, I'm going to risk being a little controversial but this was my thought when I read about Gaddafi's death in the newspaper:
If we become what we hunt we are more than lost, we are damned.
If we become what we hunt we are more than lost, we are damned.
