Attached to it was indeed a Word document of his new book. It looked good.

This irritates me. I hate people with a "something for nothing" attitude. I was always bought up with "If you want something, you have to work for it". Why is it good that this email will take away some of his earnings? Fair enough, he's a rich man, but he has worked hard and done some very good things. Why is it people in this country seem to resent people who are successful, when they should be pleased for them?

They are the equivalent of the playground bully, low self esteem, insecurity, typical unfortunately of many bosses too who will not employ people they see as cleverer than them. Me? I would always pick people cleverer than me, I don't want everybody in the firm as thick as I am, (but then I'm the only one here so far ;) )
 
He was voted to have the mouth most worth punching.

He does some stupid things too like cutting a sheeps throat Muslim style while the sheep was still alive.

Well, that kinda..........makes sense............otherwise you wouldnt be killing them coz they would already be dead :!: :rolleyes:

Yes but it's a quick bolt to the head so the animal is not aware of what is going on.

The Muslims, however, are allowed to cut the animals throat with a knife (Ken Bigley style). If you or I did that we'd be arrested and jailed.

Ordinary, you ain't

Not for pigs nor chickens to name but two. Not for the government and Defra when they want to illegally kill millions of healthy animals under some trumped up foot and mouth charge, they can beat them with clubs and shovels..
