    When is violence not violence?[^]

    Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

    What gets me is that either they were witnessed by police, or someone actually reported them! That'd be a good 999/911/000 call: "Yes, she threw a biscuit at me. I've got a small red mark. Couple of dozen cops? Perfect..." :doh:

    Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

          Tradition has it that when Cornwallis surrendered at Yorktown (1781) the British played the tune "The World Turned Upside Down". (http://www.contemplator.com/england/worldtur.html[^]) Perhaps this should be made the official "on hold" music for British police forces (farces?)

          If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack. --Winston Churchill

                      The English translation of the subtitles is almost as funny as the video. :-D
