You only live once, make the most of it!
There will be storms tonight. I pull on my jacket and hurry up the garden to pick the beans for tea. Already the wind is grasping at the plants, tugging them away from the safe anchor of their pots. Above, the sky is leaden and empty; the birds gone home to roost. Back in the…
The phone beeps – *Mushy’s being impeached..go put on geo..NOW*… Frantic flicking through channels, not knowing what to expect, and there sits Musharraf giving his last address. And after a while of listening to how,In the calmest possible tone, he points out, sector by sector, things have improved… how in each area, we drastically rose…

Apparently a member of the religious police in Saudi Arabia has now been accused of having six wives at the same time. Please note however…
