Well the bad news is that the EASY DREAMER link is broke.

The good news is that we can replace it with Fark,com which only displays good and amusing, weird news. ALBINOS BAN DA VINCI CODE!Johnny and Edgar Winters write Protest Song.
Albinism is boycotting The Da Vinci code for its shoddy treatment an Albino character. Various articles went on to explain how Albino characters are almost exclusively the bad guys in movies. It came with a list of movies with Albino characters and each role was either good or bad. The 'bad' albino characters loomed overwhelmingly over the 'good' ones. How does society get away with making people out to be 'bad' just because they are, simply, different? What can be done to improve upon this situation?
Don't forget the WORLD ALBINO ROCKFEST - GIVE GENEROUSLY - PHUCK GLOBAL WARMING.

I hear the Rockfest will include an opera by Tomaso Albinoni, the very pale Venetian baroque composer.

Now is there any scientific evidence that warming thee pot makes for a better cup of tea?
I think they should form an IPCC-type panel to discover thee truth. I will volunteer to get paid thousands of pounds a week for drinking thee tea.
I promise not to make a storm in the tea cup.

I hear the Rockfest will include an opera by Tomaso Albinoni, the very pale Venetian baroque composer. Will it. If you think Albinoni had a rought time at school then spare a thought for the Jamaican Albino 'Yellowman'. It ain't easy being an albino Rastafarian, but - and I know i've used this phrase before - he took a negative and turned it intio a positive attribute..in fact he does little else but sing about his attributes. Err..take it from me.

Warming the pot doesn't make any difference to the taste of the tea. It just keeps it hot longer. Must have been infuriating to Kipper to find his mean-minded quote, out of context, merely gave rise to a few pleasant remarks about warming the pot. Better luck next time.
