Itunes makes Lego a sad boy. 
I've been umming and ahing ever since I got my little Ipod shuffle in February about whether to sign up to Itunes, for lots of reasons. Today I decided to take the first step by perusing the Itunes site and seeing what I could buy. Having found a wealth of stuff I wanted, I decided, what the heck-- I'll sign up and buy some stuff now.
Filled in my email address, password, started on my credit card details and then ah-- I was signing up to the US Itunes site so this wasn't going to work.
Undeterred, I switch over to the UK Itunes site and before I sign up I double check I can get all the stuff I wanted off the US site.
No I can't. The UK Itunes site is shit. Utter shit.
Instead of the 30 or so songs by Iron and Wine, there are about 5, and none of them are the one I wanted. The Garden State soundtrack isn't on there, and neither is the Used/MCR cover of "Under Pressure" which inexplicable tickled my fancy, amongst other things that caught my eye.
So basically because I live on a North Atlantic island which is all but a US state, but crucially not, I have to suffer limited musical choice?
Arse. Bastards. Arsebastards.
I'm currently hoping to exploit my friend Josh's American bank account by giving him hard currency in exchange for Itunes when he comes back from... er, Portugal, I think, in a few days' time. If not, I shall do everything I can to defame Apple until they rectify this bollocks.

HaHa j/k America sucks.
Even though there has to be one absolute truth of what the origins of the universe are, it doesn't nessasirly mean that there is an absolute moral standard. For the sake of argument let's say that the Muslims are right, therefore making all other religions wrong. That would mean that the the Muslim's moral standards, the Koran, would be the absolute moral standards.
But if the atheists are right (which we are *wink wink*) that would mean there isn't a supreme being, therefore there wouldn't be an absolute moral standard.
If the Christians are right that would mean the bible would be the absolute moral standard. This would also mean that believing in any other religions is "evil" as the Second Commandment says "You shall have no other gods besides Me".
However all religions (besides Satanism haha) believes in the golden rule "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." If only we could get everyone to agree that homosexuality, premaritial sex and masturbation is in fact NOT evil then the world would be a happier place hehe.
