Peter Muscat: And yet you choose to spend your time among people who are less intelligent than the ‘village idiot’ you mention. Now what does that say about you?

While conversing with someone regarded by many as ‘the village idiot’, at a most wonderful Gozitan village, I was conviced that:

1.Hate, spite and anger are the most powerful ingredients that destroy a man/woman.

2.Great are those that give away love,hugs and smiles.

3.Time, words and opportunity never come back.

I did write some time ago that ‘a village idiot is more intelligent then most posters in this forum’! How right I was!

31 days after the election results are published every candidate is required to submit a sworn statement of expenses, before a magistrate, showing that he or she did not spend more than the prescribed amount. If that statement is not made, or made falsely, the sanction is to lose your seat in Parliament! If you have not been elected the sanction is a fine of up to €465.87. In both cases, you are struck off the voters list for four years. Apparently Dr Vassallo did not send in his statement.Doesn’t this guy ever learn!!

Is Harry going to pay his VAT fines, especially now that he’s out of a job?

Take a look at this, and listen to the music, which is ironically entitled “Bitter Sweet Symphony” (The Verve):

I wonder whether the poodle’s choice of accompanying music with such a title was an unfortunate mistake (if so, then so much for the PR expert “lil din!” wife), a funny coincidence or whether it was intentional, with some underlying tone!

“Xewka, I’m calling them crazy because the same people who made the mess were asked to assess the mess.”

They followed the MLP’s example.

Why should we call someone crazy just because he saw his mistake and admitted it?

Caphenni: They knew all this beforehand. They just didn’t take it on board.
