    Imagine a revolt of the jelly babies, where they all started eating people. It's a wonder no one ever thought to make a horror film like that.

    Something something media manipulation, gas and oil offshore, rights etc., protest, flouride in the water, weak-willed, post-colonist attitude, never get anywhere, sure we'll dance with the girls we have, bondholders, bailouts and the feckin' rain.

    Alright, now what's this about jelly babies?

    There must be something in the water here. Irish people have become extremely passive and docile, far more likely to get riled up about meaningless sports than something that actually matters.

    Not that bad my arsé. Try saying that to the parents of the three week old baby that died recently, when an ambulance was sent to the wrong county. That's what happens when you ration and cannibalise frontline services.

    Yup. It's the flouride that does that if you believe the conspiracy nuts.

    That's what The Man wants you to do. Drink the Kool-Aid and play the corporate game man.

    I'm guessing that Folha didn't cover much on Jim Corr's Dublin march for freedom or whatever he called it.

    The way I read it was that unfortunately the baby was already dead (cot death) when the ambulance was called in the early morning hours. And the ambulance arrived in 30 minutes.

    The fact we chose them doesn't give them full and unlimited power over us. I think that all governments should work the way managers work - they should present their business plan while election, and then they should be checked in time periods if they follow it. If they don't, they should be fired and treated the same way as businesses do.

    Does anyone else bite the head off their jelly babies and then laugh maniacally?
