Wishful thinking spiced with a little (or much) envy!

Could it be Sharon’s sex toy? Maybe Kev would care to enlighten us?

I’m not sure what your point was – presumably it was a veiled reference to the MLP administration in the 1980s?

Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. So very true. And also, by extension, the reason to be suspicious of an administration that has been in power for too long.

One of the strengths of democracy is that it allows for cyclical change. In Malta, the pretenders to the throne don’t inspire much confidence, true. But all I know is that the current administration seems to think, talk, and act like a horse on its last legs.

Allright crew,

I hereby declare that I am referencing Swiss Toni, a character in a BBC comedy sketch. Any resemblance to persons, living or dead, is purely accidental.

Baxxter. Your analogy of ‘rooting for a team’ is interesting. Most diehard supporters of major teams never criticize their team since the team can do no wrong–in other words, they are mindless. It then follows that supporters of Labour are also mindless, thus bringing into question their thinking abilities–may I say IQ?

Fair enough. http://community.manutd.com/forums/t/83993.aspx

Another Maltese saying: L-akbar cuc min ma jridx jisma’.

The Bus Conductor: I suppose you mean the saying: “Min imaqdar irid jixtri.”

Sorry I do not understand – please explain further.

Winning an election, Paul, is much like making love to a beautiful woman: You send out party invitations, make empty promises, press some flesh, make speeches about a bright future together…. perhaps a single red rose in your logo. Then you talk of Belgian chocolates and fine French wines. And when the moment’s right, you draw the curtain, grasp your pencil, and fill that box.

[Daphne – You’d better point out that you’re referencing Swiss Toni here. My, doesn’t he look like Anglu Farrugia?]
