Mixed Signals

By Nelson

An old one: “New terror detention limits: your views”.

There’s too much hype, spin and mixed signals at the moment I can’t be certain what to make of it all..!!!! I still go to work and send my kids to school.
Ed Brown, Watford

It IS confusing but I think you’re doing the right thing. We should all carry on having normal meals and going out of the house ‘n’ that until such time as the government tells us we’re DEFINITELY GOING TO EXPLODE.

    I have this mental image of Ed Brown, having written that, pressing SUBMIT and then heading for the nearest corner of the darkened room and rocking back and forth like a Romanian orphan. He can no longer cope.

    I think the excessive punctuation is what gave it away.

    Hype, spin AND mixed signals?

    Watching TV, going to the pub or mixing with the opposite sex must be a labyrinth of pain and confusion for poor old Ed.

    Perhaps he is relying on his kids getting to the stage in school when they can start to explain modern living to him.

    I’d love to creep up behind him and shout ‘BANG’.

    I think there’s something quite sweet about him. I’d swap 1,000 angry pognophobes for one Ed Brown.

    Somebody needs to make Top Trumps out of the HYS posters

    I love it when people are so compelled to make comment on a subject that they just admit they’re a bit confused by it all and have no opinion. It’s like their so used to being on the end of passive media that, now the internet lets them feed back, they’re convinced that they must whenever they’re asked.
