Week in review

Yes, yes, I know it's been a while... but alas, duty called! Anyway am back with a bang! So this week there's been some pretty good stuff in the news and on T.V. Let's see in the Apprentice, Simon Ambrose (he that curls his hair) was 'HIRED'! I know I should have placed a bet.. I'd have cleaned out... there was no way Kristina was going to win, she was far too 'safe' - an un-wanted quality that was present in her predecessors (none of whom funny enough are no longer with the establishment that is Sir Alan Sugar), on the other hand Simon was a risk-taker, and had moments of imaginative genius, when he wasn't talking like an air head!. Like I said, I really must start taking the lottery and sure-bank gambles seriously, honestly.. all that cash that could have been mine! I hear you calling me a 'kalo-kalo' girl, well tough! Well still on this new Apprentice, the very next day the young man goes out and buys an Aston Martin DB to celebrate his new job! Talk about putting the cart before the horse.. the man hasn't even been on the job 5 minutes.. O well, I hope he does Sir Alan's empire good.. for those of you not in the know, Sir Alan Sugar ranked 84th in the Sunday Times Rich List 2007, has a net worth of £830 million (that's British pounds) and owns amongst other companies Amstrad, Amsair as well as Amsprop.

Anyway we'll leave the rich to their own devises. For some humour - well at least for women, ha ha... a woman who ripped off her ex-boyfriend's testicles with her get this.... bare hands has been jailed! Poor dude, all I can say is ouch! Apparently she flew into a rage when he rejected her advances.. hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, have you men NOT learnt! Anyway missy yanked off exes left testicle (btw am I the only one or how did she gain 'easy access' to his prized jewels? Hmmm), tried to swallow it, choked and then proceeded to spit it out into her hand... and the punchline, wait for it.. a friend grabs the spat out testicle from her and hands it back to 'Mr Jones' saying "That's yours" Lol! ! Hilarious! She gets 2.5 years in jail and he..well he gets no testicle.. doctors were unable to reattach his family member... ooo what a shame! But hey at least he still has one more to 'perform' with doesn't he? My sympathies Mr Jones... at least 'woman scorned' has apologised for her 5 minutes of madness!

In the world of politics, the Justice minister wants equal pay for men and women to be reached by 2020.. err come on people, by then I'd be preparing for retirement! (Oops.. did I just reveal my true age),.. scrap that. Now the meddling do-gooders in Labour are trying to ban kid smacking outright! What's next, tell us we can't yell at our kids? No wonder grown ass folks cross the streets when they see over 3 kids milling together! There is absolutely no discipline these days! Let's hope this law doesn't go through, talk about a nanny state! It's to be made compulsory for fathers to be registered on their child's birth certificate..utter rubbish! If you don't want the baby daddy on the birth certificate, then surely you have the choice.. after all as a woman you carried the child for 9 months, laboured in pain from anywhere between 6 to 48 hours.. so I will bloody well not put the name on if baby dada is a waste of space! (Though how the gene pool would work in that case is beyond me, a case of some serious fasting and prayer to ensure that dad's never do well character does not sip into the new born's blood!). Anyway when o when will this government stop trying to dictate to us what we should do and how we should live!

Right folks, that's my 2 cents for now....catch you soon...Britain's got Talent final is on... now that's a story for another day but I do hope either little Connie or the Kombat Breakers wins in that order :-*
