Morning team.
What's your Thursdays shaping up to be? I've got a job in the mortuary today. Going to be the fastest install I've ever done I reckon. I'm told the work carries on around you working as it's not a clean zone.
Alt: I watched that show about the commons, really interesting I thought, although probably a bit too bbc1 to get the proles intersted in government proper to leave the ukip wagon. Are you interested on politics at all? I don't care how you vote.
Altalt: chicken Thursday, Veg Option Porridge

Morning Piglet
There is nothing of note to report on this most average of Thursdays.
I intend on keeping my head down until the weekend, whilst posting drivel on the internet.
Alt: Yes, I'm very interested in politics. I'm not telling you how I vote.
Altalt: Bit exclusive, there are about four known vegetarians on this site, which must account for almost half the posters now.

Good moaning.
Thursday's just a bit of a nondescript day in general, really, isn't it? I've got nothing of any particular interest planned for today; might go to the cinema tonight.
Alt: A friend of mine on Facebook has suggested that people register to vote and then vote just to kick the Tories out, then everyone can go back to ignoring politics again. I looked into registering as an overseas voter yesterday.

Disappointingly, I realise this is not unlikely.
They've made a habit of using the politics of fear to distract people's attention from how badly they've fucked up the country. Plus, it's not exactly as if there were any credible alternatives. UKIP? LOL.

Not a boring Thursday for me,
I'm designing the controls for the air con for the Cineworld near Glasgow. Two of the screens are designed to show Gregory's Girl and Local Hero on a non stop loop, 24/7 forever.

I am having a super Thursday, working with some masters of colouring in and then Pendle Beer Festival with chums.
I cannot wait to tell the CAMRA organisers that their beer selection is dull and wrong.
Too late for 2015 but I would love to stand as a UKIP MP. Get elected, get a defense ministry role, that is where the real contacts for consultancy opportunities in later life lay or what's the point . Within UKIP, I continue to rise and finally takeover after a very public real fight with Nige.I then immediately form alliances with Labour and the Green Party.
Altalt - I will have food today.

My Thursday is neutral at the moment
I had Muesli with dried fruit in for breakfast rather than a sausage sandwich. So long-term good but short-term bad. I don't have any urgent deadlines but I do have stuff to do so that's good.
Alt: The 3 main parties are corrupt millionaire identicunts, and UKIP appeal only to morons so I'm probably going to vote Green. I like their policies mostly.
AltAlt: Canteen is serving Roasted Sussex chicken crown with Rosemary new potato, sage and onion stuffing for lunch. THEY KNOW ABOUT CHICKEN THURSDAY

It has become clear for so many, that the Islamic State are nothing more than a CIA operation and their plan all along, since 9/11, as former 4-star general Wesley Clark said, was to enter these countries… countries such as Syria, Iraq, Lebanon and Jordan
We have seen this in Syria and Iraq and we have seen it recently, when the animals of Islamic State entered Lebanon through the Qalamoun mountains and now we will see it, due to the barbaric execution of the Jordanian Pilot and with this recent move of King Abdullah wanting to personally lead airstrikes and if they do continue their airstrikes and in a much stronger way, it will only open way to more kidnappings and brutal executions of innocent civilians and more than likely, a new CIA operation coming out of Jordan. It is well known as the Anonymous poster posted, that Western intelligence has been funding and training ISIS terrorists in Jordan…
