Have to say I found that last Elftor strip very offensive.

Headmaster's Hymn (a parody) - I'm sure some of you are familliar with this poem.

Sung to the tune of "When a Knight Won His Spurs"

When a knight won his spurs
In the stories of old
He was - "Face the front David,
What have you been told!"


With a shield on his arm
And a lance in his "Hey!
Is that a ball I can see?
Put it a - way"


No charger have I
And "No talking back there!
You're supposed to singing
Not combing your hair"


Though back into storyland
Giants have "Roy!
This isn't the playground
Stop pushing that boy!"


Let faith be my shield
And - Who's eating sweets here?
I'm ashamed of you Marion
Its not like you dear"


And let me set free
With - Please stop that Paul King!
This is no place for whistlers
We'd rather you sing!"


;)

I used to love that poem as a kid - great parody by Allan Ahlberg :)

The top 5 worst cars ever...
http://motorsmania.blogspot.com/2006/08 ... -made.html

and further proof that the Amerika is just pure Kapitalistic Evil:
Ford Pinto (1971-1980)
One of the best selling cars in the 70s is famous for something much worse than a plastic bubble and three wheels. It was involved in a serious safety scandal. Ford's main problem with the Pinto was the fuel tank, which would burst into flames in rear-end collisions. Of course, Ford knew about, so they made a little cost-benefit analysis to decide whether to fix the problem or just to leave it as it was. You can look at the famous and often mentioned in business ethic texts cost-benefit analysis below:
BENEFITS
Savings: 180 burn deaths, 180 serious burn injuries, 2,100 burned vehicles. Unit Cost: $200,000 per death, $67,000 per injury, $700 per vehicle. Total Benefit: 180 X ($200,000) + 180 X ($67,000) + $2,100 X ($700) = $49.5 million.
COSTS
Sales: 11 million cars, 1.5 million light trucks. Unit Cost: $11 per car, $11 per truck. Total Cost: 11,000,000 X ($11) + 1,500,000 X ($11) = $137 million. As you can see, Ford management came to the conclusion that it was much cheaper to pay the law suits, medical expenses, certain amount for pain and suffering, only $49.5 mio. Comparing it with $137 mio. for fixing the tank, it is absolutely logical that they decided not to! Right?

There's mention of a similar formula in Fight Club.

Not sure that the Pinto thing is funny though. I ended up sadly shaking my head...

I agree yeah. It's sickening and saddening thata company can really put profits before human lifes...

What is even more sickeningly and sad is that I'm not even all that surprised and shocked by that fact... which really shows you in what kind of world we are now living.

Yeah, very true. I wasn't shocked by the story, at all, which you're right, says an awful lot about the world today.

OK, this is getting too morbid. Time for a laugh.

Have you heard that BA's cancelling more flights? A statement read, "I ain't gettin' on no plane, fool!"

:D

Another one:

A man gets up one morning to find his wife cooking. He looks in the pan and see one of his socks. "What are you doing?" he asks. "Exactly what you asked me to do when you came to bed drunk last night!" Puzzled, the man walks away, thinking to himself, "I don't remember asking her to cook my sock..."

Ah, so you like the cruder humour more than the vaguely political commentary then, eh? :D

Did you see my poem? :D

A young woman goes into bar, and asks for a double entendre.

So the barman gave her one.
