Hee hee, I know one shouldn't really joke about the apocalypse, but when you've got Vladimir Putin, topless in his fishing gear, nipples oiled and clutching his rod, trumpeting the "Father of all bombs," which the Russians claim to be four times more powerful than the weak Americans "Mother of all bombs," how can you not laugh? Gordon Brown I hear was about to unveil the second cousin of all bombs, but that seems a little pathetic now.

The boast is, that when this thing explodes, all life within a 200 mile radius or something, simply evaporates. Hee hee...but though, BUT, it's enviromentally friendly!!? Huh? Even the super-powers' war departments have gone green. This bomb will turn your whole countries population into mist, but, if by some miracle any of them survived, they'd have no fall-out issues to deal with and the trees will survive. Yay!

Perhaps I'm old fashioned, but I say, if you're gonna make attempts to wipe out a population, fuck the trees, just kill everything. What's the point of an environmentally friendly bomb? I blame that Anita Roddick woman for this sort of thing...nicotine free cigarette, alcohol free beer, lead free toys, cancer free mobile phones, ...all that natural living, where did it get you eh?? Dead at 64. Pfff.

Anyway, so it looks to me like Cold War II is on the horizon, and not before time. This whole war on terror shite was a direct result of the Soviet Union breaking up. Everyone was happy when there were two super powers. Soon as they drifted apart, Merca had no one to wage indefinate war against - George Orwell's 1984 stylee - and so they trumped up this who Alan-Queada dude, had hate hours and made sure every American can consider themselves a traitor if they didn't buy into the "war-on-terror" and various other verbs, concepts and non-tangible enemies...but then it turned into real war and I'm sorry but that's just not cricket.

Cold War II should return us to proper "war-without-war' and cool action movies. Lot's of topless posturing, but no actual fighting. I think we'd all prefer that. I'm backing the Russians this time. I laid America last time and lost big. I'm hoping this time for a reversal and to break even by 2015. People crictise Ronald Reagan for being a war wongering crazy man, and fair do's he did turn out to have a cracking case of Alzheimers, but the 80's were the best days of my life. A nice relatively easy war against the Argies, followed by non-war, one or two issues with the Irish, but the M40 wasn't completed in those days and so they never went near Oxford so who cares, and then of course, the cracking series of Back to Future movies. Is it asking too much to return to those days. Back to the Past, that's what I always say. And so on.

The End.
