I understand the need to please the Mrs. Have fun. That leave 3 of us. I will probably be downstairs at 8pm where there is more room. I will be wearing a black NeXT sweater and will have a bottle of beer on the table with a Kindle in hand. My number if you can't find the place is 07426 903970.

It looks like it will be a small group. Surprising for a city the size of London. Does not matter. It will be a good excuse to get out for a drink.

I can't believe there was not a location set for London yet. Now there is one. At the Scooter Cafe behind Waterloo. It is a great little cafe.

...we are doing something right! :)

We would be fucking young boys, burning our women, fucking sheep and farm animals, drinking at home where nobody can see, beating our women, attacking anyone who who was different, never taking responsibility for our actions, burning books.... Thank Allah they are not a world power. Their backwards and narrow thinking is a threat to our freedom.

Saudi Arabia can go fuck itself.

These sites are monitored by many governments. If you start posting to one of them, you will go onto a watch list as a terrorist suspect. Then, when you fly to another country or back to the USA, you will be seriously questioned. "Because the government told me so." will not work. I would not do it. Never trust any government.

Perhaps we should black list Orson Scott Card and prevent him from being with 10 meters of a child. Let's prevent him from being alone with his grand children. Hey! This is America! We can just lock him up! Let's do that.

The USA is pathetic. I am glad I emigrated.

I spent 4 months in Shanghai and was considering moving there. Shanghai is an amazing city. However, by the end of the 4 months I could not get out of there fast enough. Their Internet censoring/monitoring slows down your Internet connection so much it is sometimes not useable. Skype and many other programs/websites we use regularly in the west are not legal in China. Some are blocked for political reasons and other are blocked so people are forced to use local versions of the products. The local versions all have built in monitoring for the government. Almost all expats in China use VPN connections for their daily work. Hong Kong is the complete opposite. Nothing is censored there and their Internet connections are extremely fast! I can live in HK.
