What a load of Bollocks

Implausible explanation of British Ambassador to Tripoli to senior Benghazi rebel politician Mustafa Abdel-Jalil.about the presence of up to 8 SAS operatives near Benghazi.
Late Sunday afternoon say SAS men have been released and are now on the HMS Cumberland sailing in the direction of Malta.
This may not be the end of the affair as it is possible that the deal to release the British SAS may backfire on rebel politicians as event may be used by Gaddafi to undermine Benghazi rebels as being in associated to British forces.

Truly out of his depth.

No shit Sherlock

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson went on a camping trip. After a good meal and a bottle of wine, they were exhausted and went to sleep.

Some hours later, Holmes awoke and nudged his faithful friend.
"Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see."
Watson replied, "I see millions and millions of stars."
"What does that tell you?" Holmes said
Watson pondered for a minute.
"Astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, I observe that Saturn is in Leo. Timewise, I deduce that the time is approximately a quarter past three. Theologically, I can see that The lord is all powerful and that we are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have, a beautiful day tomorrow. What does it tell you?"

Holmes was silent for a minute, then spoke. "Watson, some fucker has stolen our tent."

Dangerous Dim Bulbs.

Councils across the UK are refusing to pick up low-energy lightbulbs from homes as they contain toxic mercury, which gives off poisonous vapours.

Well tough titty.

I’m putting mine in the bin when they fail. I suggest that you complain to the EU about it, because I don’t care. I never asked for them.

Apart from the fact we used to do experiments with mercury when I was a youngster and I’m still alive. I mean really.

If a bulb is smashed, the UK’s Health Protection Agency advice is for householders to evacuate the room and leave it to ventilate for 15 minutes.

Just get a life.

Shale gas. The way ahead?

Yes I think it is. Certainly we should be researching extraction methods to obtain it. It would obviate our reliance on those volatile Middle Eastern countries.

The world may have twice as much natural gas than previously thought, according to the rich nations' think tank the International Energy Agency (IEA).

The world may have 250 years of gas usage at current levels thanks to "unconventional gas" from shale and coal beds, Anne-Sophie Corbeau, senior gas expert at the IEA told BBC News.

And of course you don’t hear a peep about it from our governing class. All they can think of is impoverishing us further with their total obsession with Bird Mincers and solar panels.

Shale gas from Lancashire and other parts of Britain could contribute between five to 10 per cent of the country's gas needs.

Eco Opera

Just something to listen to while you’re making a cup of coffee.

Is Sex pleasure or work?

An RAF Group Captain was about to start the morning briefing to his staff. While waiting for the coffee machine to finish its brewing, the Group Captain decided to pose a question to all assembled.
He explained that his wife had been a bit frisky the night before and he failed to get his usual amount of sound sleep. He posed the question of just how much of sex was "work" and how much of it was "pleasure?"

A Wing Commander chimed in with 75-25% in favour of work.

A Squadron Leader said it was 50-50%.

A Flight Lieutenant responded with 25-75% in favour of pleasure, depending upon his state of inebriation at the time.

There being no consensus, the Group Captain turned to the Corporal who was in charge of making the coffee. What was his opinion?

Without any hesitation, the young Corporal responded, "Sir, it has to be 100% pleasure."
The Group Captain was surprised and, as you might guess, asked why?

"Well, sir, if there was any work involved, the officers would have me doing it for them."

Johnny Ball. Why he thinks AGW is a false premise.

Johnny Ball speaks out on how the kids of today are being frightened to death about Global warming. It’s interesting that all transport Secretary Philip Hammond and Alastair Darling can do is repeat the same all tripe that has been fed to them by the Green Lobby. I have a feeling that Brillo is more on his side than the AGW position.

Cool

Just to remind some of the doom mongers out there. Just watch the vid below. We are nowhere near peak oil, or anything approaching it.

Does that explain it in simple enough terms?

But this made me laugh Even more>

David Cameron threatened Colonel Gaddafi with military action last night, promising a no-fly zone.

Dave. Have you forgotten? You’ve just got rid of our aircraft carriers, and the harriers that fly from them. You dozy twat.
