There is a certain beauty in the vernacular Chrise.

..................................................................

If lawyers are disbarred and clergymen defrocked, then doesn't it follow that electricians can be delighted, musicians denoted, cowboys deranged, models deposed, tree surgeons debarked, and dry cleaners depressed?

Any more?

A ventriloquist is telling Irish jokes in a pub, when an irate Irishman stands up.

"You're making out we're all dumb and stupid. I oughta punch you in the nose."

"I'm sorry sir. I..."

"Not you," says the Irishman. "I'm talking to that little fella on your knee."

THE Guardian has launched an investigation into why people choose to have breakfast at Wetherspoon’s.

The paper believes it has identified a ‘fascinating and disturbing socio-economic trend’ involving millions of ordinary people paying £2.99 for bacon and eggs.

The investigation explores the troubling reasons why consumers do not eat somewhere else, or pay more than they need to for a plate of food.

Tom Logan, a Wetherspoon’s customer in Peterborough, said: “A reporter sat down next to me, without my permission, and asked me why I felt forced to do what I was doing.

“I told him it was half past eight in the morning and that I’m eating. And then I told him to f*** off.”

Jane Thompson, from Stevenage, added: “I told the reporter that it’s £2.99 and it’s on my way to work. He said that was absolutely fascinating and disturbing.

“And then I told him to f*** off.”

The 1,318 corporations that rule the world

After analyzing 43,060 multi-national corporations, researchers ‘revealed a core of 1,318 companies with interlocking ownerships’. The report goes on to reveal, ‘Each of the 1,318 had ties to two or more other companies, and on average they were connected to 20. What's more, although they represented 20 per cent of global operating revenues, the 1,318 appeared to collectively own through their shares of the majority of the world's large blue chip and manufacturing firms - the "real" economy - representing a further 60 percent of global revenues.’

The 147 corporations that own the 1,318

Digging even deeper where no man, or computer, has gone before, investigators explained that from among the 1,318 super-corporations, there exist the true global rulers. Richer and more powerful than most countries and governments in the world, these 147 corporations own portions of the other 1,318, who in turn own portions of the other 43,060. This multi-level and far-reaching ownership by the globe’s top 147 multi-nationals gives them an iron grip on world power and has created one united entity where competition and separation are mistakenly thought to exist.

Commenting on the overlapping corporate ownership of the ‘super-entity of 147’, the report explains, ‘all of their ownership was held by other members of the super-entity - that controlled 40 per cent of the total wealth’.
