It's Bilderberger weekend! Will Gov Rick Perry of Texas be there?
Edited on Thu May-14-09 02:06 PM by Joanne98
He got got sneaking in last time. LOL

A comedian reports from the scene..

Bilderberg: One mention of Sylvester McCoy and it all kicks offCharlie Skelton is menaced by police with guns (and mirrors on sticks) in his third dispatch from (near) the Bilderberg summit of the global elite

Reach Charlie Skelton's first and second Bilderberg dispatches

You know your day's gone badly when it ends with you being shouted at in a Greek police station.


It wasn't meant to end this way. I'd gone for a gentle sunset walk, up by the Bilderberg hotel, to relax before the big opening day of the elite globalist shindig, watch Phoebus plunge headlong into the western sea, and (yes) maybe sneak a couple of short-lens pictures of the mounting security.

Opposite the hotel gates I took a casual photo out over the bay, limbering up to swivel round and snap off some naturalistic "armed guard having fag and chatting up policewoman" sort of shots. A plainclothes officer jogged across the road and got in my face.

"No photos."

"Of the sea?"

"Give me your camera."

"I don't understand."

"Passport."

"I've got my Oyster card".

"Passport."

"Driving licence?"

He takes my licence. A group of policemen have sauntered over, and mutter Greekly about the enormous threat to the smooth running of Bilderberg I seem to represent.

"What is this?" asks one of the local militia. He takes my notebook. Opens it at random.

"What are you writing? What here?"

He points to an old 8 Out of 10 Cats joke (well, barely) about what would happen if we had a female Doctor Who. He jabs at it, proof, in black and white, of my status as an agitator. I read it out: "I'm not saying we've already had a female Doctor Who, but Sylvester McCoy put cracks in the glass ceiling."

"Who is this? Syl... Syl..."

"Sylvester McCoy."

"A friend of yours? He is staying here?"

I bite back telling them that Sylvester McCoy is a noted anti-globalist freedom fighter who is here to lead the people's revolt against Bilderberg's liberty-stripping agenda. "It's nothing. Can I have my book back?"

Any bets on what they'll be talking about this year? I bet it's about the FORCED globalization project. Adam Smith part one.. Goods and services.. Adam Smith part two.. Labor..

We're all just one big happy corporate slave family!!!!!!

8. Really? What kind of worthless burger joint is this, anyway?
Edited on Thu May-14-09 02:51 PM by MineralMan
Never mind. I'm going to In-N-Out. They don't have gorgonzola, but I ain't making my own damned hamburger. Not at those prices. Feh!

On edit: Oh, yeah...by the way...Do you have any idea who I am?
