    Islamic School approved for Bass Hill

    I am all for freedom of Religion and for people finding faith later in life. But, out of interest how many people do you know, brought up in a Religious household that were given the freedom to believe what ever they wished? By sending your children to a Religious school (of yor choice) are you...

    Islamic School approved for Bass Hill

    Hang on, when did we lose freedom of speech? I don't remember this happening. The majority of people on these Forums, me included have no idea how much freedom we have. Go live in North Korea or the Congo for a bit, then come back & tell me how much freedom we have. The very fact that we are sat...

    Islamic School approved for Bass Hill

    The main problem I have with any Religious school, or Religion for that matter is the fact that the children are not given a chance to decide for themselves what they wish to believe. Forcing your own beliefs on to your child, at home & at school is just plain wrong (in my opinion). So on those...

    Dog Phobia

    Woah! Sounds like you and your pooch need some help there. You should get in touch with a Canine Psychologist or Trainer. Aggression should never be left to manifest in your dog...bad owner...sit.

    Dog Phobia

    What they said. Dogs will only get more upset if you hug or try & comfort them. Canines percieve this kind of behaviour as weakness in the pack leader..you. Ignore them or show them it is nothing to be afraid of. If you are in charge in your pack, which you should be, then your dog should follow...

    Question for the Guitar Players?

    Depressing in what way? I will throw Pete Tosh in there, awesome Reggae guitarist. Xavier Rudd & Ben Harper rock out on Lapsteel/Dobro too.

    Question for the Guitar Players?

    One here! Although I play Bass & Dobro not Guitar as such. Why did you ask, if you don't mind me asking?

    Question for the Guitar Players?

    Jimi Hendrix. For reasons, go read a copy of Crosstown Traffic, it explains it all. He basically took the blues to new places & at the time of his death left a gauntlet lying on the ground that no one has picked up since. He could wring so much emotion from his instrument, innovated in so many...

    Defending music you like

    I like Reggae ( the proper stuff) & Funk. Anyone that doesn't like these 2 genres is either def, dead or has no soul. Therefore I have no need to defend them. I do however, get really mad when people say something is Funk or is Funky when they clearly don't know what the Funk is. To be honest I...

    NME, Non-Gamers, Video Games, and Colplay.

    Hmmm, I think non-gamers view gaming as a sad waste of time for geeks & teenagers. I think the music & game industry are both part of the entertainment industry along with films, therefore they are bound to cross paths. The three can also help to boost sales of each other, so it makes sense to...

    Comedians you just don't get

    Thankyou, I thought it was just me. Gervais is a smug, aqrrogant ass & Russel Brand just reminds me of a 18th century Cockney pick-pocket. I never liked Harry Enfield or any kind of spoof movie starring Lesley Nielsen.

    I hereby accept the Prequel Trilogy. (Starwars)

    I hate all of them & Lucas, with his mad chin. I think he keeps all the money from Star Wars fans in his chin. Chewbacca was the only good thing in any of them. Badly made, bad script & the original three have aged about as well as an old fisherman.

    Poll: Do you say your cool?

    Woah there fella! don't let anyone make you wish to be dead. Going off the deep end about things you like is no bad thing. If anyone thinks it is that is their problem, not yours. Have an internet thumbs up/pat on the back/man hug from me.

    The first Native American President

    I think you should take it to the extreme & have a monkey president! Oh wait.....you just got rid of Bush monkey. How about a dog?

    Poll: Do you say your cool?

    Anyone can be cool, depends on the observers definition of cool. The Fonz is seen as cool by some not by others (including me). Mr Tramp sounds like my kind of cool, doing his own thing & being happy doing it. People who try to be cool always fail, it's like the whole fashion thing, to me you...
