    Anyone interested in talking about the really big issues here?

    A magazine sold by really big homeless people? Which part of "chat" is causing you the most confusion?

    For example did you know that no more atoms exist other than those that came from the original ball of gass and rock (the singularity) that then became stars, planets, air, then simple organisms, dinosaurs and eventually to you?

    There was no gas in the beginning, certainly no rock. Too hot for solids, too hot for gasses, too hot for nuclei, too hot for neutrons, too hot for protons, just loads of quarks seething.

    And we're not talking dairy products here.

    Your atoms once formed other things, dinosaurs, beetles and rocks. So next time you crush a fly or chow down on a mis treated battery hen at KFCs - think about the fact your atoms could will one day end up inside a chicken to be devourded by some other un thinking Human, who cares lots for celeb magazines but nothing for the really big questions.

    Stuff the chickens, my atoms were once in a supernova.

    I do hate my bank, man it hate HSBC. They seems to be happy with my having basically no extra cash to live on due to my overdraft costs and happily offer me a loan on the spot. I decline at the time saying I'd like to think about it, so they say "sure sir call back in about 3 working days"

    So I do call back, they run the application and reject me! Further damaging my credit file... what the bloody hell?

    Damn you HSBC. Seems they want to keep me in debt forever.
