I stumbled upon this bit of text in a recnet news article on FOX news.

“Portuguese police suspect that the couple, from Leicestershire, may have accidentally killed their daughter and hidden her body. But tests on samples taken from the holiday flat where she disappeared and the couple’s hire car have failed to prove she is dead.”

So all those allegations, and they cant even prove if the little girl is in fact dead or alive. From what i read, it doesn’t appear that they know very much about this case at all.

I really feel sorry for this little girl. If she is still alive, then she’ll probably be missing her cat teddy bear thing, and maybe her mum and dad and sisters. If she’s dead then its the result of a unnecessarily over-the-top advertising campaign, and extremely poor police work. Either way, its absolutely no fault of her own. Poor girl.

In more olstar related news, i have bee walking like, a 1/4 of the way to work in the mornings. Its helping me wake up properly, and its giving me a little bit of excercise each day too, as i do NONE at all.

On my travels i walk through 3 or 4 subways (not the shop that sells expensive sarnies, the underpass things) and it brought back many a memory from when me and my mate timmyroob were wannabe graffiti artists. I was never any good, tim was better than me. But we used to paint down in certain subways in mansfield, away from the prying eyes of the public. Its mad buzz running down somewhere, one of us watching out, and the other taggin the wall with some mad colours and shapes.

Ok, so this example of a tagged subway looks messy, but when graffiti is “tidy” and well painted, it looks amazing. the tag on the left is quite good, and there are a few other good ones in this subway, but generally round here the artists are pretty lame.

When we were in bratislava, there was LOADS of taggin, but not that much actual good graffiti. It was mostly in a foregn language so i didnt understand it.

I wish that i could actually draw, and had even just a ounce of talent in the hand drawing area, as id still be graffiti’ing to this day.

On a completley unrelated note, i have just seen that  according to some bones that have been found, the Hobbit, was actually a real thing!

Hahaha, hobbits. thats awesome. I wonder if they didnt wear shoes,had big ears, and liked to get pissed and smoke weed a lot? haha

Yep, that’s right. The media (i.e. newspapers, news on TV) will cause the total destruction of the world by about 2045.

I was watching the TV the other day, and i saw that “Northern Rock” – a large bank organisation had to borrow money from the Bank of England, so that their customers didn’t experience any problems getting their money out. The reason for this is the way the bank works, they borrow money from people to give to their customers at a fixed LOW rate. They then lend that money to their customers at a higher rate, therefore making money.

Now, the people that the bank borrow money off have put their rates up, and that meant that Northern Rock could of been in a “lack of cash£” situation so temporarily borrowed some cash from the bank of england whilst they upped their interest rates and started over-charging existing customers to make a bit more cash for them.

But, thanks to the media, everyone has gone into panic mode, and has withdrawn their cash from their savings with Northern Rock. If everyone does this, then the large organisation that is Northern Rock, and all its employees, will be out on the street! And its not even their fault!

And again, with the Madeleine mccann case, there has been so much speculation, allegations, and blame being thrown about, that people have forgotten that there is a little girl out there that could still be alive, or could be buried somewhere horrible, and not near her home and family so that they can pay respects to her (if she is indeed dead).

And the people to blame about this, is the media! They hype stuff up, and make a mountain out of a molehill JUST to sell papers, they don’t give a fuck about the fact Madeleine is missing, they just want a more attention-grabbing title than their competitors, so that they can be number 1 in the ratings!

The fast paced news reporting media that we have in this day and age is to blame for SO much..

Will it ever go away?
