aha, anyone who has ever read If by Rudyard Kipling shld so read What If by Benjamin Zephaniah. It is HILAROUS.
Check out the 1st stanza:

If you can keep your money when governments all around you are losing theirs and blaming it on you.
If you can trust your neighbours when they trust not you. And they can be very nosy too.
If you can await the warm delights of summer
Then summer comes and goes with sun not seen.
And pay so much for drinking water
Knowing that the water is unclean.

that is one funny parody...
anyways, feeling idle lately, and have not really awoken from month long slumber. Tis true then, when they say that the ultimate goal of the busy is to be idle. Believe you me when i say so.
Don't really want the mugging to start so soon, but best to drill it in my thick skull now that an EDUCATION IS OF PARAMOUNT IMPORTANCE!!Just read in the papers tt teens are v materialistic (tell me something i don't know). topping their wish list (quote): marry a super (x 20) rich man No kidding, these were the exact words...
Alas, who is then left to mourn for the solidarity of the penniless pauper. (but as the fairy tale goes has a heart of gold blah blah blah.)
