    The "experience and preach" was directed at Sarah_Is_Happy, and, more or less i happen to agree with you so you can jump off ur soap-box temporarily. My base argument was that you can not blame social problems and self-alienation on drug and alcohol dependance. In most circumstances, it is only...

    To my knowledge alcohol and drug abuse are not the root cause of social problems but a symptem of them. Most commonly, alcohol is used as a means of escape from the ravages of poverty and the other problems that brings such as domestic violence. Experience those problems yourself cold sober and...

    CF Composing

    OUCH! that sounds rough. I think it depends on how you handle the conventions (subversion, originality etc). The narrative voice is important too, and you don't want to piss off the markers by slagging off the genre too thoroughly.

    CF Composing

    Bush's Creationism in schools remarks

    I know that, I'm merely arguing that Bush's opinion contradicts the law of the nation he leads. However, with the increasing conservativism worldwide, i doubt there would be much to stop the law being changed in referendum.

    Bush's Creationism in schools remarks

    Ye Olde Monkey Trail Yet more evidence that conservativism is on the rise and that Ned Flanders is about to rule the world (and maybe already does). Bush's suggestion violates the Third Ammendment of the Bill of Rights which states: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of...

    Where's Charles?

    Well in the Herald he had this model shot going, mood lighting and all which prompted us to put him on the wall of our classroom with the likes of Beckett and Oscar Wilde and other literary geniuses with which Charles belongs. He's either a natural Odonnus or needed a lot of light work and...

    Where's Charles?

    We found a picture of Charles Prestige-King (Number 1 in Extension 2, 04) in the paper and well, in my class of six females he is pretty much worshipped as a god. Just wondering if dear Charlie is part of the BoS community.
