Notice that in this song, Marie is waiting for Tony Christie, but in All Seeing I's "Walk Like A Tiger", which is also a Tony Christie song, Marie had left him for a man half his age! Maybe Tony had spent too long trying to find the place, and Marie got fed up waiting. Ho hum.

1. A "punk" was originally a tramp's young homosexual companion. In other words, a rent boy with no ethics.
It then mutated in meaning, via an insult connoting the same, to become a term for a ruffian (mid 20th century). It was in this sense it was used in Punk Rock from 1976 onwards.
2. TRUE: Someone who does what he or she wants because they like doing it, and not giving a fuck about what other people think.
3. FALSE: Someone who can't think for themselves, so imitates people from category 2 above, in an attempt to look kewl.

1. Punk was the English term for the French Apache - see George Orwell's Down & Out in Paris and London for details.
2. The most truly Punk thing that Johnny Rotten did was to quit the Sex Pistols and form PIL.

A place off the Atlanta freeway, which is set right back in the middle of a field. It has glitter on the front porch and mattress, and has a tin roof, rusted.

Enough of this bullshit irony.
In Euro 2004, the only person Sol Campbell fouled to score his perfectly legitimate winning goal against Portugual (which was subsequently disallowed) was *his own team-mate* - i.e. John Terry.
Urs Meier the referee deserved everything he got after that.

The so-called "England Header Rule" is a cynical attempt to deny the achievements of our Football team.
