672.0. "Who Cares??" by CSLALL::SECURITY (MADHATTA) Thu Mar 07 1996 19:47

    I always see news on things I really don't care about. Why are people
    so fascinated by the Kennedys in this country? I don't care who JFK jr.
    is dating, I don't care which Kennedy has cancer. The Kennedy who
    was paying more attention to Irish issues than to American ones is
    a little interesting...
    
    	I thought a note adressing news that seem boring and unimportant,
    yet get a lot of coverage (am I the only one who doesn't care?) would
    be interesting.

    Give me a break, it's the first time I started a topic!!! I know I
    should have said "I thought a note addressing news that seems..."

         Hey, MADHATTA, sorry I haven't been around to distract these
    clowns. I see they've found a new target. Don't just sit there and take
    this abuse, go on the attack. Slam SILVA.  I'd help you, but I'm going
    to be too busy tonight.

| Slam SILVA.  

	I don't do that. And Dave has already said he is attached at the hip to
his gymnist girlfriend, Inga something or another. 

| I'd help you, but I'm going to be too busy tonight.

	It's just like a strate boy...figuring that they can just come along
for the ride and we'll just want it to happen. I believe the term is....you
flatter yourself too much. :-)

    I`m fed up with the Royal Family,and their sleazy antics.
    
    Apart from the Queen and the Queen Mother who are an inspiration to us
    all.
    
    The rest should be rounded up like cows,and shot like pigs.

    Well I think Prince Chuck is insane. He had a beautiful wife who could
    have kept him young. Instead, he went for a much older 2 bagger. I
    think those ears act like giant cosmic ray collectors, which over the
    years have caused severe brain damage. 

    Hmmm, maybe it's the polo accidents.

    You gotta understand.. (I for one will remain true to the note
    thread)..
    
    You're blonde. You're cute. Ted Kennedy wants to take you for a drive
    in the country to a little pond he knows about for a little skinny
    dipping.
    
    Somebody has to warn these innocents about the people running this
    country; and coach swimming on the side!

    agree with .0
    
    tired of hearing abt JFK jr's antics, Di and company,
    how the traffic is so messed in the snow storm (grrr,
    give me a break! It IS a snow storm, afterall!!), how
    people are whining missing their cruise ship in Miami
    yada, yada....
    
    Now here's something maybe to be a LITTLE bit concerned about....
    it's only 3:25pm Wall St time, and the DOW is already correcting
    more than 166 points. So traders starting their weekend surly, so
    come Mon, more (points and traders ;-) will slide. Enough to make 
    me a tad worried over the weekend.

	God save our gracious queen,
	Long live our noble queen,
	  God save the queen.
	Send her victorious,
	Happy and glorious,
	Long to reign over us:
	  God save the queen.

	Thy choicest gifts in store
	On her be pleased to pour;
	  Long may she reign:
	May she defend our laws,
	And give us ever cause
	To sing with heart and voice,
	  God save the queen.

	Our loved Dominion bless
	With peace and happiness
	  From shore to shore;
	And let our Empire be
	Loyal, united, free,
	True to herself and thee
	  For evermore.
