    I'm just a bit fed up over the lack of pro-war stuff being organised by the uni I go to (bloody students, eh?). It's all anti-war this and anti-war that. Surely I'm not the only one who thinks that having a Tomahawk missile fly into Saddam's 'nads is a good thing?

      I'd rather see the tomahawk missle be renamed from that offensive indian name and dismantled and used to build a shelter for abused kittens.

        Organizing a strike piecemeal is bound to failure, especially in this troubled economy. Even if a company workforce was 100% against the war, what good would killing your company do? Besides, political strikes are illegal in the US.

          Seems fair. How does 'Nadbuster sound?

            Student movements often spearhead greater social movements ahead. First the students. Then workers join in. Then everybody else.

                    That's a given.

                    Oh yeah, and I'm trying to arrange a national campaign to get everyone to send Tony Blair a pair of socks. Flood Downing Street in underwear and remind them how much they stink.

                      It all sounds like doing something for a laugh rater than having any political weight.

                        Most of us get taxes withheld from our paychecks. I'm not certain, but I'm willing to bet that in a typical year there are usually more Americans getting a refund after filing their taxes than there are having to pay a balance due. All this means that most of us can't refuse to pay our taxes, and if we refuse to do the paperwork we'll only be giving the government more money, i.e., our refunds!

                              The peace people say they are going to invade an Air Force base and stop their military operation here in Calif. I wonder if is going to be Travis AFB in Fairfield, Calif.

                              I know that I'm not going to work tomorrow. (Thursday)



                              Oh wait a minute, we are on spring break, so I don't have to show up.

                                Don't they shoot people for that? Or is that just the high security bases?
