Advice on studio size

man! i don't know who bob's great "commercial potter" friend is, but that
great potter needs to limit his freeloading buddy's time on-line to porn or
something other topic equally suiting rather than allow him to bother people,
be they "yanks," "limeys" (sp?) or whatever other ethno-centric word you can
use to describe good people.

Good people don't invade other countries, shoot-up women and children and
steal their assets!

I'm not from the 'old county' either...why apologise...do potters have
'sensitive feelings' and don't discuss world politics or issues more
challenging than...'what shall I turn this mud into?'
Benny probably owned shares in a gun factory...is that not what your economy
is built apon.
When your economy looks bad, you vote in a dimwit as patsy and then start a
war somewhere.
I said that the minute GB got in with rigged voting and sure enough within a
week he was insulting NK followed shortly after by I.

Be quiet the lot of you or I'll have to split you up. Talk about it after
school.

one last thought for bob (with apologies to the rest of you): i agree that
our
president is not the brightest bulb, unfortunately. and if you were
implying
that your country's leader (not the medieval vestige which you call a
monarchy, but rather your prime minister) is brighter, i once again agree.
but
having observed that, i'm wondering what good it has done for your
country.
yes, tony is a smart and articulate man, which to many would make his
lemming-like butt kissing to our president no less contemptable than the
person
with whom he's chosen to play "follow the leader." after all, let's
remember
that your fellow countrymen (and women) are "over there" as well. so,
while i
agree with a recent post that points to your personal hypocrisy, i don't
think
we need to look so far back as to the days of the empire for its
illustration.
now, i'm sure you'd like a last word, which will kindly ignore and get
back to
the interests of this newsgroup. peace.

I SAID TAKE IT TO EMAIL

Jumping into a pottery newsgroup posting chain, to rant about your
sophomoric political views,

And what did you just do?? Heard a bunch of complaining but no solutions.

Robert,
Many Americans share your opinion that Bush is out of control.
Personally. I am appalled that he has succeeded in manipulating the
tragedy of 9-11 into the "justification" for proceeding with his
hawlkish agenda and what seems to be the final assault on the civil
liberties we all enjoyed in the states. The right wing goal of grabbing
control over the liberties of others, far pre-cedes 9-11, indeed it
precedes the USA. Come to think of it, the USA was formed by a band of
British immigrants trying to escape the conservative tyranny that the
british did not invent but most certainly perfected.
Our current problem is not that Americans are power hungry on an
individual basis. Rather, many of these same British conservative pricks
have chased the true lovers of liberty clear across the Atlantic and
grabbed temporary control of our government.
TO be fair, it was Tony Blair who first implied Iraqi ties to world
terrorism and first suggested that the US AND ENGLAND go after Sadam
post 9-11.
All this is besides the point however. The problem we have
regarding this newsgroup is that it is a pottery news group. A place
for those with a love for all things clay to come and share or discuss
their common HOBBY. A hobby being a personal activity one engages in for
the purpose of temporarily escaping the realities of day to day life. A
persons hobby can bring beauty and joy to their life regardless of
whatever level of personal struggle the rest of their life might project
onto them. This newsgroup is like a sanctuary for people who share an
interest, to relax and enjoy their chosen pastime and escape the harsh
reality of their daily existence.
Escape that is, unless some single-topic-obsessed asshole like you
or Bush decide to ram their personal agenda into every aspect of our
existence. It is correct to say that this is a PUBLIC newsgroup and one
is free to rant about any topic of their choosing. But as you might have
noticed, each "newsgroup" has a title, this one being
rec.crafts.pottery. The titles being in place so that people of similar
interest can more easily be directed towards one another. These titles
provide structure in order to organize the subject matter as to allow
people to explore their shared interest while escaping the rantings
that go on in the THOUSANDS of political newsgroups created by people
like you and Bush for the purpose of pontificating about their own
myopic political views.
Jumping into a pottery newsgroup posting chain, to rant about your
sophomoric political views, adds nothing to your cause or credibility.
It's kind of like an obsessed chicken farmer jumping into a knitting
pool to rant about the latest grain price increase.
BTW, thank you Brit's for Rupert Murdoch, we are endlessly
gratefull.......

i just took a shower if you MUST know what I just did...

Aside from the obvious, there _is_ something we can all do about the current
world political situation.
All of us take our LEAST favorite current piece:
-break it into small, sharp shards, collect them all in one place, then

-convince the armies of the world to force our political leaders to walk
across them
multiple times until they get a grip (and no, not A Griffen Grip) and
promise us all peace,
which

-we will then use to our advantage to make more and better pots.

There's a pottery solution to a political problem :)
