					<description><![CDATA[@ Daphne - re judgeship.

I&#039;m afraid I&#039;m guilty of slandering the Nationalist administration.  A contact of mine tells me the proposed appointment was during the Sant administration.  I&#039;m afraid I had forgotten the 22-month hiatus between Nationalist administrations. My apologies.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Toni Abela,

Please clear up for me what Phillipi (please note the double l) has to do with Othello?

You do know that the battle of Phillipi was part of the play Julius Caesar and nothing at all to do with the play Othello, don&#039;t you?

&lt;strong&gt;[Daphne - How would he know? He reads L-orizzont, for heaven&#039;s sake.]&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[@ Daphne - re judgeship.

There&#039;s nothing much to say. The position offered was indeed a judge.  Seems the Administration was in dire straits.  Can&#039;t comment whether he would have been a good judge, but apparently he turned the offer down.

&lt;strong&gt;[Daphne - Which administration? The one that appointed Myriam Hayman a magistrate, or the other one that appointed Noel Arrigo a judge and then chief justice?]&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Not to be pedantic but OXX should start with GĦ ...this is oh so entertaining. I can&#039;t believe people are rushing to the law courts to sue for libel because of a blog, of all things!

What&#039;s next, we&#039;ll be sued for libel for what we say at the manicurist&#039;s about Joseph Muscat looking like a schoolboy in a suit? And whilst on JM&#039;s garb, have you seen the blue shirt with a white collar he was wearing at the party thrown in his honour on Friday night in some obscure party club? Absolutely hideous - does he know those shirts are usually used in Mob movies? To say nothing of the tie which was totally mismatched!

@Andrew Borg Cardona: I think he pasted the wrong blog entry. Now if that&#039;s not the doing of an O-X-X I don&#039;t know what is :)  That would furnish enough proof in Court that he is indeed one :) As our press law lecturer used to say: it would constitute the &quot;prova tal-verita&#039; tal-fatti&quot; :) and the suit dismissed without further ado :):)

&lt;strong&gt;[Daphne - I know it starts with gh but spelling it without allows me lots of leeway with pictures of the two-horned variety.]&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>
