Couldn't resist posting this.

Sexy female students are a "perk" of working in higher education! But remember look and don't touch.

Barak Obama awarded Nobel Peace Prize... http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/8298580.stm

WTF!!! What has he ACTUALLY done? If it is (as is being suggested) being awarded for his intentions then what is the point?? I INTEND to win the lottery, cure AIDS, solve global warming and write the best selling book and album of all time! Does that entitle me to the Peace and Chemistry Nobels, a grammy and the MannBooker?? I don't bloody think so!
Morgan Tsangeri would have been infinitely more appropriate, a man working to restore order in the face of ruthless brutality.

(I don't have anything against Obama, I actually respect him. Its more the fact that he's been awarded this incredible honour for SAYING he intends to do, what is afterall, the job he was elected to do!)

BBC Your Guide to understanding the Internet. Apparently it has something to do with pretty women and very small dogs. I think I have missed the point somewhere along the way!
