You leave me without words, Rover: &quot;Nothing of any substance.&quot;

Now you build a three-storey building in three months after getting permits and excavating and building the foundations, then I come along when you are nearly finished and  demolish it in three days.

Then you start rebuilding for another two months. Should you say that it took you five months to construct this building without mentioning what I did to you?]]></description>

t.bona - find some part time job. Others do so instead of lamenting or blurring. If you&#039;re not capable of doing so, you should not have married or brought up a family, like others do. That&#039;s why the PN is all for our children&#039;s education. So that the new generation won&#039;t be quitters like you. Today you have to study and work like in the whole rest of the world.]]></description>

If you just take a good look around, switch off the unnecessary equipment (including computers, on at night to download music and films - on the average a desktop computer utilises 1 unit of elctricity every 2 hours), then you should go below the limita t which the discounts come into play. With the discounts, there is hardly any difference in the residentail electricity bills when compared to the previous bills.

And if you really believe that Joseph Muscat has a magic wand that can reduce these bills wihtout someone else (i.e. me) paying for your wastage, then you believe in Peter Pan, fairies and elves. Just remember, he (Joseph Muscat) has still not given one concete idea how he intends tackling the energy issue.]]></description>

Everyone should choose the party that can run the country - do we have to go back to 1971?
Erskinemay&#039;s arguments are exactly the same as those presented by the MLP prior to the 1971 election.  The Labour won and we are still reaping the &quot;rewards&quot; of that bad decision taken by the voters.]]></description>

For goodness sakes, we are all feeling the pinch. The difference is some of us face reality and know that we can&#039;t keep being subsidised for ever. Just cut down on all your wastage (like not leaving electronic equipment on stand-by) and you will hardly notice the difference!]]></description>
