Okay, it's another SP...

Who ordered up the damned rain? Hmmm? Lovely day till, ooh, 5 minutes before I was getting on a bike to head home (via Mel's work, so a longer route to boot) with my waterproof jacket safely tucked up at home because the WEATHER FORECAST said it wasn't going to rain. Bloody. Michael. Fish.

It had been a different story at lunchtime:

Last night I was feeling dark, hence the moody SP. Tonight, riding home, I was singin' in the rain. Literally. That song. Do be do do, do be do be do do...

Yesterday I found a law firm called Morrison Foerster. I wanted to check to make sure that their name was spelled correctly (work thing, worth getting right - note speeling errar's galore here, note too menshun grammar) and found their website. MoFo.com. Seriously.

Imagination.
Innovation.
Expertise.
Commitment.
This is MoFo.

They've even set-up the 'MoFo Foundation'. And the scrolling news is just great. MoFo named to AmLaw's A-List or MoFo Takes Top Honors or NLJ Names MoFo Trial Lawyer. Ah it's the small things. Like noticing my internet browser had got a little over-excited...

Speaking of MoFos, do you think politicians ever speak the same language as the rest of us? Michael Russell, esteemed MSP, and in charge of education in the country, came out with a soundbite yesterday which was basically along the lines of, "There are no people with X mindset in education in Scotland; and if there are they will be moved out." Michael, I suggest you look at tackling an understanding of the English language and logic in the education budget. If there are no people with that mindset in education in Scotland then there will be none to move out; if there are people with that mindset who need to be moved out then there can't be no people with that mindset.

It's quite simple really. So here's a message for many many of the politicians in this country (meaning Scotland and the UK). STOP DEALING IN SOUNDBITES AND PLATITUDES TO THE LOWEST COMMON DENOMINATOR (being Daily Wail readers obviously) AND CONCENTRATE ON GETTING THINGS RIGHT BEFORE WORRYING ABOUT WHAT YOU SOUND LIKE IN A TELEVISION INTERVIEW YOU SIMPERING VAGUE CLICHÉD CAMERA-TRAINED FECKING USELESS MUPPETS!

Ah. That's better.
