“We are Forerunners. Guardians of all that exists. The roots of the Galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending.

Vote “LEAVE”, and become great again

Take up the White Man’s burden-And reap his old reward; The blame of those ye better, The hate of those ye guard- The cry of hosts ye humour (Ah, slowly!) toward the light- “Why brought ye us from bondage, Our loved Egyptian night?” — From The...

The English Flag by Rudyard Kipling

It’s all over bar the shouting now, apparently- The Donald is in fact going to be the Republican nominee for POTUS: Triumphant Donald Trump claimed victory in the Republican presidential contest on Tuesday night, after Ted Cruz dropped out of the race following...

Captain Save-A-Ho to the rescue!!!

A man so young that he apparently still needs to be told not to stick it in crazy, is clearly attempting to show that he has more money than brains by turning a ho into a housewife: Lindsay Lohan is to be engaged to be married.  The 29-year-old Mean Girls vet has...
