no one's picked up on the fact that Will Young won
"breakthrough artist"? he might be a good singer, but he
hasnt exactly broken any boundaries - musically.

and robbie williams = best male artist? he's done fuck all,
all year!

I think its cool. He's doing his own thing, and saying stuff
on record I haven't heard said before. I really like his
lyrics.

The closest comparison i'd say is to The Specials, with
tunes like ghost town and friday night saturday morning.

Where did you read that from? He sounds nothing like the
specials. It tell you what he sounds like. Blazing squad for
the NME buyers. That's what he sounds like. Fucking ned.

No. A small minority would be 10% of a population. A large
minority would be 40% of a population.

An oxymoron is a phrase that contains contradictions. There
is nothing contradictory about asserting that a minority can
be large?

A minority is not by definion small but SMALLER; in
comparison to something else i.e. the majority.

Its good to see the money daddy spent on a university
education wasn't wasted.

It's just quite sad to see that you had to run to a

You're still wrong though.

Hey, I'm not a man who's afraid to admit he's wrong now and
again. it's just in this case I'm right. A correct way of
saying it would be to say a "sizable majority" or a
"considerable majority"

majority? BTW, as I said, to label "large minority" an
oxymoron is incorrect. Large is just a quantity, minority is
based on a percentage. Therefore, tho you may not like it,
"large minority" is not incorrect usage of the rule of the
English Language.

You seem to have a real problem with university educated
people. What is it? Is your boss a university graduate
promoted above you because of his degree? Did you go to
university and flunk out? Were you not very popular at
university and made a fool of? Or were you, as my suspicions
tell me, too thick to go in the first place?

Yeah, I was too stupid, too poor and too lazy to go to
university. People like me will always be envious of people

My family were poor as well. I had to work almost every
night in safeways to subsidise my education. I don't know
why you chucked "too poor" into your diatribe, but I can't
really complain about the other two.

No, it was before tuition fees were introduced. I got the
full student grant but my dad was out of work at the time so
I gave most of it to my parents. I didn't mind working in
safeway, though. It was a good laugh and the checkout girls
were easily impressed by my linguistic skills and my natty
student dress sense. Never had more fun in my life.

And do you know? - when I pressed my student grant into my
father's calloused hands with their broken fingernails, he
took his woodbine out of his mouth for a moment and said to
me "Son, you're the man of the house now." It was such a
touching moment. If only he could have stayed alive to see
me graduate, he would have been so proud. But 25 years down
the pit had taken their toll.

That's very touching Bill. But how did you feel at
university, being surrounded by middle class kids who's
parents gave them everything and lived to see them graduate.
Were you not bitter? Resentful even?

In life you are dealt some cards. Some are high. Some are
low. Some are Jacks. Others are deuces. Some people get
dealt better cards. Some people get dealt worse cards. But
those cards are your CARDS and to resent those cards would
be to resent yourself. Of course I wish things could have
been different. But those cards are what made me the person
i am today and i am proud of them.

You know i heard a parable once. It said that if you give
all the poor people in the world all the rich people's money
and vice versa and come back in ten years you will find that
the rich people are ruch again and the poor people have
probably spent it all on lager and scratchcards.

It isn't rigged. Not everyone is equal.

During his latter years, I'm afraid that my father did turn
to alcohol somewhat. Being laid off from the mines really
made him quite depressed, as it did for a lot of people in
the west of scotland. And if he got some pleasure from
scratchcards, who am i to critiscise? Plus the week before
he cacked it he won £250,000 on a golden win scratchcard
and left it all to me. I've been laughing my ass off ever
since. Fuck poor people. I'M RICH!

Well, so long as you gave him a decent burial with that and
got yourself first class honours in town planning, or
whatever it was you did at Luton.
