Wasting fillet time

Last week I ran into the side of a car on my bike when I couldn’t brake in time when it suddenly pulled out of a parking lot. I was lucky to fall well, and got away with a bent back wheel and a skinned palm.

Before I got any sympathy, a friend of mine hit a car and somersaulted over the roof and skinned his shin enough to require stitches. He claims not to remember much of the day from after he had breakfast.

Before he gets any sympathy, there’s a lot of people being bombed using military equipment illegally shipped through the United Kingdom to replenish the stocks, and we’re doing nothing effective about it. If the arms export laws meant anything, we would be shipping anti-aircraft weapons to Lebanon so they could defend their people from the incoming bombers. That’s normally the type of weaponry put in mind by the word “defence”. Claiming that other things, like nuclear weapons, fall within that category is a lie.

What I am wasting a great deal of time on is attempting to get hold of UN Official documents so we get an authoritative itemized record of why the United Nations is not effective at “saving succeeding generations from the scourge of war”. In spite of all the rhetoric, someone at the heart of that organization loves war, and the best way to get something that you want, but no one else wants you to have, is to say publically that you don’t really want it, and then steal it anyway.

I’m coding up some fillet surfaces for machining when I get bored.
