Driving

I'm going to take my driver theory test tomorrow, and to be honest, I'm a lil nervous. So on Tuesday, I was at home, infront of the computer, cramming for the test. Mum had the news on, and I heard one of the most ridiculous things. The government wants to add MORE restrictions on learner drivers and those who have just passed the full test.
Already a learner driver must have a fully licenced driver in the car all the time, and then a learner can only be on a provisional licence for 2 years maximum.
Now the government want to add in a rule on the amount of passengers a learner driver can carry, they want to add a curfew, make it that you cannot have certain cars that have big engines, and also a zero tolerence to alcohol.
I don't mind the zero tolerence to alcohol, that I think is a brilliant idea. And the 2 years max is good too, as is having a licenced driver. But the rest of it seems rather pointless. The curfew isn't gonna make learning how to drive any easier, neither is restricting the engine size, limiting the amount of passengers is pointless.
If anything all this does is make the idea of driving more daunting for learners, and soon people will probably just not want to take the test.
All I know is that if I don't pass the test tomorrow... I'm taking the bus...

America

I've done alot of thinking recently, and looking at American t.v and looking at what people have talked to me about... America is a really scary place. Look at the facts:In an American supermarket, the biggest area is the frozen food area, and the smallest is the fresh food section.In American schools, everything is sponsored by a company, like Pepsi. It's been found out that most can't tell the difference of countries in Europe, 64% couldn't tell the UK, most thought Europe was one big country, and and almost 70% of kids at 16 years old couldn't tell you any other state than their own on a map of the states that has no names on it. Working in America is pretty scary too... Poor pay, crap hours, practicaly no benifits, and in some cases when you die, the company you worked for gets money from your will.The politics are corrupted too, no one needs me to remind them about George Bush Jr. And the media and government are in cahoots with each other in leading the people with fear and lies. And when a government lead by fear, then it's no longer a Democracy, its a dictatorship. The best thing so far is that people have now elected Obama in.As for the health system, well I look at it and nearly want to congradulate Mary Harney for a brilliant job! Seeing how it works in the states, it's not a health service, it's a potluck for anyone to get better! And its only for those with a shed load of cash that can get anything decent that could help.This is just all general observation on my half, if you disagree you can tell me, I greatly value anyones opinion;)

Dang it!

Stupid msn... well i guess I should explain, my msn got a virus, and it wouldn't let me login, so now I've got a new account, which has gotten rid of my blogger account too... grr... I know I hadn't alot written on it, but still it's annoying.
Modern technology my arse....
