So what is timesnewroman? It's not the font, rather my take on the age we live in. The USA is the new Rome and the times we live in are timesnewroman.

Busy weekend, shopping mostly. and finally located a bottle of the previously extremely elusive chocolate liqueur as recommended by CC for mixing with Cava. thewife is an enthusiast from first sip, says CC should be awarded something. This view changed dramatically come Sunday morn, seemingly thewife has mother of all hangovers.The reidboy has emailed ranting sorely. Put me into rant mode also, hence the posting. Labour (War) Party and their macho shit. Diatribe ensues, bottom line is about the stock answers of Scottish Parliament having no say in the matter, and how Saddam is an evil thug who deserved to be overthrown. On count 1 - I'm no longer convinced having a Parliament that has no say in war is a Parliament worth having. That and the fact it's too easy an excuse to use to avoid stating where one actually stands. On count 2. Absolutely 100% behind that, however why now, why not ten years ago or for that matter twenty years ago. Oh and by the way who gets to choose who the good governents are and who the bad ones are? Power isn't just about making tough decision - any decision which involves the "necessary" killing of children is just a plain obscenity. Rant over! thewife beckons, we have a picnic to make, and I'm driving apparently.
