SCOTLANDS NATIONAL BIRD DEBATE
63
WHICH BIRD???
The Scottish executive are discussing which bird should become our national emblem,on the table are. the golden eagle and well thats it. Now i think taxpayers money should be better spent on things that are more needed i.e Education or health.
The golden eagle has always as far back as I can remember been our national emblem,but apparently it was never official. so many to choose from, wecan either have (a) the golden eagle or (b) the golden eagle its a difficult decision I`m glad that I don't have to make it.
if it was my choice I would of course choose the lowly frozen sparrow.
This debate like any other in the Scottish Executive will probably drag on for months ......jimmy

i cant deny the quote lol but hey we all gotta live somewhere.....jimmy
gah, just be glad you aren't stuck in the proletariat 'other' america. nothing like being on the 'calcutta' level of the world's most embarrassing and hated imperialist country.
Hey, Jimmy, at least your bird has hair! Ours is bald but, I think he's official - only our language isn't!

there is this line in "trainspotting" (excuse the language because I'm quoting):
"Tommy: Doesn't it make you proud to be Scottish?
Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: It's SHITE being Scottish! We're the lowest of the low. The scum of the f*cking Earth! The most wretched miserable servile pathetic trash that was ever shat on civilization. Some people hate the English. I don't. They're just wankers. We, on the other hand, are colonized by wankers. Can't even find a decent culture to get colonized by. We're ruled by effete *ssholes. It's a shite state of affairs to be in, Tommy, and all the fresh air in the world won't make any f*cking difference!*
sorry if it's inappropriate, but it was funny in context of the movie. :p deny the comment if you think you should. hope it didn't offend.
