    Urban Myths

    My girlfriend's step sister is a student at the moment & the other day she was telling me that the Student Union will not
    allow, under any circumstances, the broadcast of any song by Shabba Ranks on their premises due to some homophobic remark he
    made on The Word about 20 years ago. She's absolutely adamant about this but ISTR several variations of the same story doing the rounds over the years so I'm guessing it's utter bollocks; at least I hope it is
    otherwise I'll be parking up outside Bath Uni with my windows down with Mr Loverman blaring out at full volume.

    Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

      Reggae is notoriously homophobic in general so this wouldn't suprise me if it was true

        The opinions of the Students Union is of less significance than the smell of a hedgehog's fart.

          I don't know, Mr Marleys "No Woman No Cry" seems to me to positively extol the virtues of man love. Wouldn't you say???

          Patience is something you admire in the driver behind you and scorn in the one ahead.

            Don't you believe it, in twenty years time they'll be running the country!

                I thought you might.

                  I suspected it might be, but it's too small to make out the sign.

                  Is there a larger version?

                    Haven’t you got one of those apps the spooks use? You know the one that miraculously fills in pixels that aren’t there revealing a hi-def picture.
