Eric Joyce is my new favorite person in the world

…just because we’re both mad as hell and won’t take it any more.

Shamed politician Eric Joyce admitted he was lucky to avoid jail today for brawling in a Commons bar then telling police: “You can’t touch me, I’m an MP.”

The Labour MP walked away from court with a fine and pub banning order after headbutting Tory rivals Stuart Andrew and Ben Maney in a drunken frenzy.

He also punched Tory councillor Luke Mackenzie and Labour whip Phillip Wilson while calling officers “c****”.

After leaving Mr Andrew with a bloodied nose, “possessed” Joyce told police: “He deserved it.”

Joyce, who accepted he was “hammered” on red wine during the brawl, launched into a frenzied attack after shouting that the Strangers’ Bar “was full of f****** Tories”.

Peaceful revolution is supposed to be good for your karma and all, but sometimes I wonder if the whole idea is just about getting us to disarm ourselves so that the Powers That Be can oppress us more effectively – notice how THEY are not giving up their weapons.  If true, then maybe violence IS the answer.

Eric Joyce is a punk-ass MP and if I were a UK citizen I would totally vote for him.   Some guy from the UK needs to marry me so we can make this happen.

Headbutting Tories = epic WIN.

(Why the Scotland tag?  Richard Jobson tweeted that Eric Joyce should be the new PM of Scotland.  I so agree)

Snowdrops are blooming in Brezice

This morning I woke up after like 2 hours of sleep with a champagne hangover, but I dragged myself out of bed anyway, because my friend L invited me to come to Brezice today for a walk.

There is a group in Brezice for mentally ill people which is called Ozara.  My friend L goes there, and he asked me to come today to walk with the people from this group and so they could meet me.  I visited Ozara last week, when my friend was teaching English there.  But I was late,  so I only met one person.

The train did not run at the hour I had to go, so I had to hitchhike, twice.

Fragments of cloud, I lose my way

Have I misunderstood the lyrics for “Systems of Romance” all these years?  If so, I like my version better.
