Tuesday Ramble

Good morning my little shoal of whitebait - do you smell what the Guru is cooking?

Now, unless you watch WWE wrestling and know about The Rock, the above comment will mean nothing to you - then again much of what I say in general means nothing to you, so this feeling of bewilderment and wonder will not be a new one.

I used to love watching the wrestling, from Big Daddy, Kendo Nagasaki and Les Kellett through to Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage, then right on up to the days of The Rock, Stone Cold Steve Austin and the like.

I sat and watched the recording of the live show from the US last night - celebrating The Rock's birthday and of course they might have mentioned the death of Bin Laden, they do patriotism with a passion in the US.

I had also watched the snooker final - impressive action from John Higgins in the frame that won the championship - outstanding snooker.

It's all good stuff, uplifting and life affirming, seeing people succeed in life and finding happiness - and I want all of my little followers to help someone else feel as happy as The Rock and John Higgins - I want you to vote 'YES' for AV on Thursday. Go on, give Nick Clegg something to smile about.

Let me tell you why - if there are only two people in the race then one of them will always get more than fifty percent of the vote and will therefore have a majority of support in their constituency - but if there are three or more people in the race then the first past the post will often fall short of the overall majority.

I think politicians should represent a majority of their constituents - and it is as simple as that.

I also think the 'NO' campaign are shameful in their use of scare tactics - for example, Hitler was elected under AV, yes perhaps he was but then again so was Ed Miliband.

What have we got to lose by voting 'YES'?

During this present election, like many people, I have not been canvassed once - that is because my vote is taken for granted and my vote is not valued - I would like my vote to have meaning and I would like those who want to represent me to come and tell me why I should vote for them.

Anyway, you vote with your conscience, but please vote.

Now, I know that being overweight can increase your risk of heart disease but now I hear on the news that being overweight can increase your likelihood of developing dementia...

sorry what was I saying?

NO! It's no joke - just think about it, each bag of crisps, each pork pie sandwich, each extra topping on your cheese stuffed crust pizza may be the bite that pushes you over the edge and into confusion.

If it does, at least you might forget that you will die of a heart attack.

Now go, exercise and enjoy a grape for your lunch - be thin and miserable, you will live longer and because your mind is sharp you will know just how miserable life without fish fingers can be!

Happy Birthday Frankie Valli - The Guru smells what you're cooking!

Walk Like A Man!
