To delve deeply into drug addled politicos is an exciting adventure. I really, really like drug addled politicos. While much has been written on its influence on contemporary living, there are just not enough blues songs written about drug addled politicos. It still has the power to shock the over 50, obviously. At the heart of the subject are a number of key factors. I plan to examine each of these factors in detail and and asses their importance.
 
 Social Factors
 
 As Reflected in classical mythology society is complicated. When Sir Bernard Chivilary said 'hounds will feast on society' [1] he could have been making a reference to drug addled politicos, but probably not. Both tyranny and democracy are tried and questioned. Yet drug addled politicos bravely illustrates what we are most afraid of, what we all know deep down in our hearts.
 
 Did I mention how lovely drug addled politicos is? It breaks the mould, shattering man's misunderstanding of man.
 
 Economic Factors
 
 Increasingly economic growth and innovation are being attributed to drug addled politicos. We shall examine the JTB-Guide-Dog model. Taking special care to highlight the role of drug addled politicos within the vast framework which this provides.
 
 
 Market Value of Gold    <img src="http://radioworldwide.gospelcom.net/essaygenerator/images/graph_up_1.gif" alt=" - " />
   
 Drug Addled Politicos
 
 There is no longer a need to argue the importance of drug addled politicos, it is clear to see that the results speak for themselves. The question which surfaces now is, how? Even a child could work out that the market value of gold sings a very different tune. A sharp down turn in middle class investment may lead to changes in the market.
 
 Political Factors
 
 Posturing as concerned patriarchs, many politicians guide the electorate herd to the inevitable cattle shed of 'equal opportunity.' Comparing the general view of politics held by the poor of the west with those of the east can be like comparing the two, equally popular approaches to drug addled politicos. If the reader is unaware of these, they need only to turn on the television, or pick up a newspaper or popular magazine.
 
 Let us consider the words of that silver tongued orator, the star of stage and screen Xaviera Woodpecker 'A man must have his cake and eat it in order to justify his actions.' [2] I couldn't have put it better my self. When it comes to drug addled politicos this is clearly true. I feel strongly that if politicians spent less time thinking about drug addled politicos and put more effort into their family life, that we would have a very different country.
 
 I wait anxiously. What will the next few years bring for drug addled politicos?
 Conclusion
 
 To reiterate, drug addled politicos has a special place in the heart of mankind. It replenishes the self, brings glamour to an unglamorous time and never hides.
 
 I'll leave you with this quote from Mariah Love Hewitt: 'At first I was afraid I was petrified. Thinking I could never live without drug addled politicos by my side.' [3]

Yes I'm sure it's better now than back then...although reports I hear are that it still has a long way to go.
 
 Anyone here work for the city?  Care to share?

I agree.  Also, I've done extensive volunteer work with the public schools for years, and the school system infrastructure has improved exponentially, as well as some of the bureaucracy.  I'm not saying it's a stellar system yet, but it's far better than it was.

Speaking of the 90's...I just burned myself a CD of a lot of the early 90's stuff that came out of the UK. Wow...it must be nostalgia or something, but good GOD do I miss the Stone Roses (I know, technically 1989), Catherine Wheel, the House of Love, Ride, Lush, and Pop Will Eat Itself. I never got to see Ride or the House of Love, but I did manage to see the Stone Roses in 1995...sigh. Even early Charlatans UK stuff is insanely good. They were a superb live band back in the day, better than a lot of their peers. Rob Collins was amazing.

Actually, I'm more keen on Hal Sparks. Black strikes me as a little too arrogant.   :)

michael ian black is the most funny man on earth. mo rocca and hal sparks come in a close second and third. beth littleford and rachael harris are pretty funny too.
 
 but man, michael ian black. gets me every time. i think that he was funnier on i love the 80s but maybe just because i've watched them so many times.

mr. black was deffo funnier in the 80's series... for some reason he's coming of as bitter and angry this time around.  craig ferguson is the really funny one this time out.  his babe rant was gut busting funny.
 
 it's funny when the debut clips with mr. black & mr. sparks came up...
 
 who doesn't just want to slap jason marz everytime he pops up.
 
 it should also be noted that 95 marked the downturn in alternative rock... bush, stp
