Will it be on pay-per-view?

The Indonesian office of a global concern informs us that the "Jakarta office will be closed on Thursday & Friday (May 1&2) for Ascension of Jesus Christ."

We are hoping for live coverage on all major channels!

Last one out...

WPP is the second largest marketing communications services company in the world. It owns advertising giants J Walter Thompson, Ogilvy & Mather, Grey and hundreds of other companies. As a holding company, WPP is a relatively small outfit just behind Berkeley Square, though the companies it owns employ tens of thousands globally. Nevertheless, the announcement by high profile CEO Sir Martin Sorrell that he is considering a move to tax-friendly Ireland should send a chill up someone's spine in Downing Street....well, if they could find somebody with one that is.

(Then again, there's a little matter of 'tax harmonisation' that will eventually catch up with the Irish, so Sir Martin might want to rent rather than buy.)

Interestingly, Gordon Brown's new chief marketing officer and chief of staff, colon-dweller Stephen Carter, is an alumnus of WPP-owned J Walter Thompson where he distinguished himself by losing an embarrassing string of high-profile clients as MD, before leaving to join Thompson client ntl. Carter deftly guided ntl into record-setting bankruptcy then set his sights on the public sector, overseeing Ofcom while the industry he regulated ripped off the public with orgiastic abandon.

Fitting then, that he should find himself where he does. Maybe he can catch up with his old boss sometime soon....

"There, I said it..."

The BBC reports that Bolivian homunculus Evo Morales has finally said it. What the global warmists have avoided saying all along. What the bottom line is on all the enviro-freakery. And it is, in sum total, this:

Opening a UN forum on the global impact of climate change on indigenous peoples, Mr Morales said that capitalism should be scrapped if the planet is to be saved from the effects of climate change.

"If we want to save our planet earth, we have a duty to put an end to the capitalist system," he said.

Were he not such an insignificant half-wit, who mainly serves as Hugo Chavez's pool boy in his function as Bolivian president, someone somewhere would probably be a bit peeved that the cat was let so openly out of the bag.

If Leni Reifenstahl Made A Gap Ad....

This would be it....

The only surprise is that the Guardian hasn't called for UN intervention...meeeow!

Why we don't listen...

Freaks

I found this story about a woman who aborted a child and had a hysterectomy to keep from 'polluting the planet' on Drudge...which is my way of pointing out that I don't spend a lot of time on the Daily Mail website...and had a "Madame Butterfly" moment (you know, the one that comes halfway through the final aria) when I shouted "SO DIE ALREADY!!" at the computer screen, much to the alarm of my work mates.

While this self-possessed, homicidal maniac alone provides adequate justification for Taunton and the surrounding area to be vapourised (I can add several other legitimate reasons), the least that someone who would utter these words...

"Having children is selfish. It's all about maintaining your genetic line at the expense of the planet," says Toni, 35.

"Every person who is born uses more food, more water, more land, more fossil fuels, more trees and produces more rubbish, more pollution, more greenhouse gases, and adds to the problem of over-population."

...can do is top themself. Now. But it's not really all about that, is it Toni. Making the ultimate sacrifice to 'save the planet'. It's about much more than that, or much less actually.

"I've never doubted that I made the right decision. Ed and I married in September 2002, and have a much nicer lifestyle as a result of not having children.

"We love walking and hiking, and we often go away for weekends.

"Every year, we also take a nice holiday - we've just come back from
South Africa.

"We feel we can have one long-haul flight a year, as we are vegan
and childless, thereby greatly reducing our carbon footprint and combating over-population.

"My only frustration is that other people are unable to accept my decision.

"When I tell people why I don't want children, they look at me as if I was planning to commit murder."

Planning? Errr...you've already accomplished that you vapid, selfish slag. She, the other nauseating cow in the article and both their neutered partners need to have one last long-haul flight off the top of Swiss Re tower on a windy day.
