The quote about jails institutions and death is an AA one from their "big book" written by Bill Wilson. I despise AA. It is a cult. I'm in recovery without their crap. But if it helps you make it fair play.

one from the newspapers today...

We've all seen this coming for a long time now... lots of people have commented on this problem long before the newspapers had the balls to print it... the fact is the politicians and 'growth leaders' are sitting on a powder keg at the moment, and they haven't even realised it yet...

Apparently the 3rd movie in the "Three men and a..." series has officially started filming now...

Still not sure if i should be amused or bemused that a 3rd movie in the "three men and a..." series is being filmed... will be weird seeing Tom Selleck, Steve Guttenberg and that other guy together again lol
