Hypothetical -- You are the ruler of a third world country

Pretty much, one A & P (Or is that A & E? I always forget) certificate and you are off and wrenching.

What modern buildings? Yes, innovative technology ie Huge wind turbines that are bloody useless and no-one wants. We also have friends who recently moved down from London, and they complain of the poor Broadband services.

the lancaster kicks ass · 05-04-2005, 10:46 AM

but do your friends own a business down here?? and the eden project, pretty damn modern, and we have the world's largest satalite station, and it's not just wind turbines (the same ones that are likely to be powering your house right now), but we also have some of the most innovative wave powered generators planned...........

and i'm getting seriously pissed off with you always bashing Cornwall, no you may not like it here, it's not that i have the problem with, it's the fact that you give us absolutely no credit and bash us when it's not even nessisary, it's totally un-nessisary for you to forever bash as, so just shut up, in a few years you can move far, far away from here and the way you're going at the moment i'll be glad to see the back of you.........

Yes they do have a business. And The Eden project was desgned by a Belgian or something.The wave machines and wind turbines are only here because we take the Gulf Stream and the winds coming in for the atlantic.
When 17 im off to Bridgewater hopefully. Then ill probably go to Milton Keynes or somewhere similar. Now I could start talking about the people who live in Cornwall but I really dont want to cause any offence.

dude you're causing offence already, just stop insulting cornwall so quickly, yes we know you have a problem with it, but it's your opinion, and it's incredibly insulting when you simply sit there and slag us off when you know little about us or are too stupid to acknowledge that we are not as bad as you make out.............

cheddar cheese · 05-04-2005, 10:57 AM

I dont recall insulting Cornwall anywhere. Read it again, you will see I didnt insult it at all, I was simply pointing out facts I have picked up.

I live in Cornwall. Talk about 3rd world county

as we are part of a, if you like, "first world country" how can this be fact, haw exactily can we be a "third world county" when our counties are not even designated as such?? then how can it be fact??

and stop making such pathetic points just to try and come back at me, what you said about cornwall was a totally unprevoked insult, it was not fact at all..............

cheddar cheese · 05-04-2005, 11:04 AM

I see you failed to miss the "

" that suffixed that post. If I really thought it was third world, then I wouldnt have half the stuff I have or live in such a nice house. Im not making any pathetic points.

the lancaster kicks ass · 05-04-2005, 11:05 AM

so you meant it as a joke??

cheddar cheese · 05-04-2005, 11:07 AM

My initial comment yes. I havent intended any offence and if I have im sorry.

the lancaster kicks ass · 05-04-2005, 12:04 PM

accepted.........

Lancaster do not be over sensitive.

I do not why but this part of discussion reminded of a breakfast i had with some mathemathicians in New York last year.

We were all mathemathicians with the exception of one gentleman who happened to be an attorney. I never really knew what was the purpose of his presence there. Some of my math mates and i were upset to discover an unpleasant low life form was sharing the table with us. At some point the discussion at the table diverted to politics (Bush, Irak and similar ****) and the lawyer praised the absolute and unconditional support of the loyal British ally which he addressed as the "Federal Republic of England".

Internet services stink in the majority of places in Europe i have had the chance of visiting and living. Roma is the epitome of futility when it comes to internet services. Paris was another nightmare. London does not fare significantly better in this department.

My mother in London sees a broadband internet connection as kind of an unreachable paradise, when absolutely all of the guys and girl with whom i either work or hang out here in Mexico are broadbanded both at their homes and public places.

There some ISPs here who could teach interesting lessons to most european ISPs.

this was not about the interent connection, this was about what i thought was a very ill informed, unsensitive, offensive and downright stupid remark (i now realise it wasn't however).............

DAVIDICUS · 05-04-2005, 01:11 PM

"this was not about the interent connection,"

I hope this was not about lawyers either.

Oh, and before I forget. Lanc,

the lancaster kicks ass · 05-04-2005, 01:12 PM

no we were both simply trying to make a different point.......
