Did you know?

· The Poodle is the national dog of France.

· The Standard Poodle is the oldest of the three varieties.

· The words Standard, Miniature, and Toy are used to denote size only. All
of these are one breed.

· Poodles are known for their work retrieving capabilities in the water.

Was I supposed to get something else?

Calling Tony Blair a "poodle" reminded me of George Michael's single/video
"Shoot the Dog" in which he portrayed Blair as Bush's lap dog. I went to
George Michael's website again and found a link called "Howdy Poodle" with a
picture of Blair and Bush together in cowboy hats. Clicking on that link
showed a Quicktime video of Bush and Blair singing that old Lionel Richie
hit "Two Hearts Beat as One" or whatever, and it came from this Swedish
company that makes Swedish documentaries and tv programs:

Click on the "Bush/Blair love duet" links on the right side of the page or
click on this link to see the video:

Hi mike, you wrote:

Hello,

People complain all the time! the bestthing to do is completely ignore
them. i bet the same person doesn't complain about ISPs storing porn on
their NNTP servers and publishing it, also allowing naughty content on
pages. I remember when a TV programme was stopped because there was a coach
crash on the news and it featured a coach cras. We can't do that all the
flaming time. If people don't like what they see or hear then they have an
OFF switch and should do everyone a favour and use it.
