Daily vigils will run from 11am-1pm. drop in when you can!

The theme of the daily vigils will be solidarity for Mary and a call for the demilitarisation of Shannon Airport. All faith/nonfaith traditions respected in nonviolent oppositon to this war and the militarisation of Shannon Airport.

Other suggested sites for solidarity vigils if you wanna kickstart your own- GPO, Irish Aviation Authority. read full story / add a comment

Everyone knows rotten.com, and how the glibly show off p[ictures of dead people and their unfortunate endings. I personally view such sites as on par with the likes of the Darwqin awards; a pervers need to humilate those deemed as losers, and, if needs be, their families. They are ' lahh-oo-zers', and such glib arrogance is indicative of the culture of the United States.

But look, their superiority looks set to be challenged. Click on the link and see why any secondary school teacher wouldf give these tits an 'f' for their entry on Slobodan Milosevic. Oh, and the below is the text of an e mail I sent them. read full story / add a comment

Mercer Human Resources firm released their survey that places Tokyo as the world's most expensive city. Dublin gets the rank of 21st, a massive jump from being placed at 73 in the space of a year!

Click on link and dwnld their pdf file that lists such. Thanks FF/PDs, we are all waiting for this trickle down effect, it would sure beat having four euro in change after paying the rent and getting the shopping.

Mind you, being poor can give one the incentive to try new things, like home brewing and setting up an illegal shebeen. That is, if you can manage to fit all three customers into your average Dublin beds*it. read full story / add a comment
