HEROES and VILLAINS...

Heroes:

The Pope, Allied fighting men and women of World War Two, my parents, Bill O'Reiley and Fox News, Drew Pearson (the real #88...Jeff knows who I'm talking about), Black Conservatives, John McCain (SIX YEARS in the Hanoi Hilton), Martin Luther King, the Anglo-American Ford team that destroyed Ferrari with the GT 40 from 1966-69, Collin McRae, Peggy Noonan, Tom Clancy, W.E.B. Griffin, the fire fighters,police and EMS of NYC, Sadat-Carter-Begin (s/p?) who for a brief time made the world think that there could be peace in the Middle East, Iron Chef Morimoto, Crowded House, and yes, our boys (and girl) from Manchester.

Villains:

Babs MegaStriesand, Hillary Clinton, Uncle Ho Chi Minh Uncle Joe Stalin, Hitler, Coco Channel, Nation of Islam (NOT Islam itself, but the perversion that is the NoI), Alec Baldwin, Robert Altman, Madonna, Martin Sheen, PETA, (Hanoi) Jane Fonda, MTV, cowardly terrrorists, historical revisionist, thought police, "manufactured" pop,

What's wrong with Robert Altman? MASH (the movie) is quite possibly the funniest depiction of the American military, and the Player is pretty good, if a bit long.

Whats wrong with Coco ??

Come on everybody - how about backing our bid to dispose of the Monarchy ? That useless greying leech is celebrating her Golden Jubilee on the throne this summer, the Sex Pistols will probably reform to do a two-step garage version of "God Save The Queen", Jamie bastard Oliver will probably endorse the whole thing with his hideuos blue-Peter style pasta-concoctions....and there should be rioting in the streets up and down the la-a-a-and!!!

Hey Niel,

Let's just say that Coco wasn't the most patriotic soul during WWII and had to leave her own country for a decade afterwards. I really don't want to get into more than that. It's all public record. You can find the details if you like. And remember, I'm the kinder, gentler Michael.

Pistols reunite? That would never happen....

Yeah, to hell with the monarchy, bunch of tax-evading inbreed bastards

Damn, sorry about that folks.

T7,

My disdain for Mr. Altman comes not from his directing ability but from his view that "if GWB wins the election, I'm leaving the country". Anyway, he popped off again. You can go to Drudge for the link. If it's already gone, go to PageSix.com.

Well Mr Taboo - WHERE WERE YOU IN 1996?? The superannuated old sods did JUST THAT!! And packed out Finsbury Park into the bargain - me? I wuz there!! But they were SHITE! Utter Pantomime Horse!! Pah!! Still never got me money back after all this time!

Michael, please explain why that old retarded man they call the pope is your hero???:D

I had the live concert disc of that...for about two days. I returned it and got Sgt. Pepper instead. The Pistols sounded alright, it just seemed like they'd become the new Metallica wannabes.

In that case, it would have been even better if the bastards had the mullets to match!! arf arf arf!!!!

yeah, but she makes nice dresses :D

ps

you seem to be missing Ollie North & Nixon

Supermario,

First of all, Pope John Paul II is not retarded. I would doubt that any of us would want to compare c.v.'s with him. I think you can do better than that for a slam. Come on now, I know you've got a few more Kw in that dome of yours! :)

Anyway, a reason why the Pope is one of my heroes is because he has the inner strength, peace and faith to forgive a man who fired a burning hot slug into his midsection. How many of us could say that?

Niel,

North & Nixon.......

From my personal perspective, they're sympatheitc villains. My list contains people I just can't stand and who I feel have no redeeming value.

Good call.

Supermario,

This is off the current "off topic" thread: I have a 12" single called "Looking From A Hilltop" by Section 25. Is this the same Section 25 you reference in your bio?

The Pope's not retarded, he's just incredibly old and near death. Poor bastard, and he never even had a woman....God, hope I get some action before I'm that old.

Speaking of old, Strom Thurmond (our esteemed senator from SC and 4th or 5th in line to the Presidency)is so old he can remember Abe Lincoln. Strom's so old he dictated the Ten Commandments to Moses. How old is he? Strom's so old that he blew the whistle on Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden.

Ehhmmm, interesting point of view. Indeed , it is a very noble thing to turn the other cheek. In that perspective he might be considered a hero. For me the pope represents the catholic church and all that comes with it. My main point of seeing him, or rather cath.church, as a villain has got to do with not allowing/promoting the use of birthcontrol-items, which imo causes lots of shit in poor catholic countries. I'll quikly post, cause from 23.00 hrs the server at my job will disconnect. Speak again tomorrow...now i'm off

So , you are checking out my bio then eh! Yes, i guess its the same. Good to have another section 25'er around.

Ah - good to see that this topic is still keeping hot. Thought of a few more names to add to my previous list.

Heroes: Alfred Hitchcock (I have all but one of his films on video!!) , Thomas Telford, Dennis The Menace, Captain Cook, Anne Frank, Deborah Kerr, Marlon Brando, Telly Savalas, Edvard Munch, Jannette Seamans, John Coltrane, Frank Lloyd Wright, Cleopatra, Susannah York, Homer 'n' Bart, James Brown The Godfather Of Soul, Marvin Gaye, Steve Thompson, Gibby Haynes, Vic 'n' Bob 'n' George....

Villains: Ian and Myra, Sylvester Stallone, Gerry Adams, Corporate Fatcats, Britsh telecom, Ronald Reagan and all his succesors bar Clinton, Mr Blobby & Noel Edmunds, Royalty, William Shakespeare, Oscar Wilde, Pam Ayres, Damien Hurst, All Turner Prize contestants (talentless twats!), all corrupt dictators worldwide living or dead, Sunderland FC (forever), Robert 'n' Rupert (sparring partners in the bigwig tycoon world but corrupt bastards all the same) , Prog rockers who simply refuse to die, Andrew Lloyd Webber and his army of bland showbiz cop-outs, The Bee Gees (ugh! ugh! ugh!!!), Chris De Burgh, Rod Jane and Freddy, Craig Charles.....

Didn't know Altman said that as well. I only heard about the Baldwin who was married to Kim Basinger saying that.

The Sex Pistols reforming was frankly the most embarrassing public spectacle I have ever seen. Talk about pissing on your own legacy in the name of shameless gullibility.... Stupid c***s.

have to correct myself on Section 25, Michael! I've got the album with that song on it! Brilliant album though. What other song(s) are on the 12"??

This old thread has resurfaced again???!! Well, better add to my Villains list the stuck up toffee-nose git who blocked us from loading the lighting gear via the main reception of Mytholmroyd civic hall the other night then- simply because he didn't want his precious carpet getting wet from the dripping poles. Kept us waiting out in the pissing rain for quarter of a hour before he could be bothered opening the back fire exit doors. What an absolute bastard! The show was shite anyway - hope they made a loss on takings - like I care.

Has anybody here mentioned their useless record company yet then?

Ooops...sorry.....it appears I just have... DOH!
