Do they not know what happened to the hunger strikers they're emulating? Do they not know what most Irish people think of those hunger strikers?
Aside from that, the conspicuous lack of Afghan women on the protest sets alarm bells ringing. The days of taking refuge in Europe and pissing all over secularism and sexual equality are hopefully coming to an end...
Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time
Submitted by gus on Thu, 2006-05-18 18:59. games | stuffWhat a game...
Finished it today after about a fortnight of playing on and off. Only took about eight and a half hours playing, but it still made a person want to be a swashbuckling arabian prince in a pastel world.
Best bit is there's a port of the original Prince of Persia as a bonus for finishing the game. What a great use for an XBox and a big telly!
Being able to buy games second hand is shit cool. Having a little brother who compulsively buys the second hand games is even better.

Wicked!
I absolutely loved their fast stuff; was less keen on the mellower tunes, but that's me...

We're finally on our own.
This summer I hear the drumming,
Four dead in Ohio.
Gotta get down to it
Soldiers are cutting us down
Should have been done long ago.
What if you knew her
And found her dead on the ground
How can you run when you know?
