The New 10 Commandments

#2 - see #1
#3 - etc
Thanks.Fame at last eh ?
Well done Peter !
I am only going to be on TV for 10 minutes so I reckon I still need another 5 minutes of fame to reach the Andy Warhol benchmark of 15 minutes of fame.
However I am 48 years old and when compared to teenage pop stars and the like who get way more than 15 minutes of fame, I am a slow-starter in the fame business.
Nevertheless, if all I was to get in life was 15 minutes of fame, I think 10 minutes speaking out for a Scottish republic and human rights is an excellent use of my due allocation of fame.
Oh well, maybe you will get to use the other 5 minutes to sing a trashy pop song and become really famous.if all I was to get in life was 15 minutes of fame, I think 10 minutes speaking out for a Scottish republic and human rights is an excellent use of my due allocation of fame.
Absolutely, well said that man.Thanks.

I would never exchange my human rights or right to speak, no matter how much money or stardom was bestowed on me.
Without the former the latter is useless (and I wouldn't want to be famous either really).
What chance do young people have today with such media influence and the promoted worshipping of money and celebrities ?
I'll be watching !

Peter Dow, its a shame (perhaps) your initial ten minutes of fame do not extend to a wider audience. But maybe I will get to see it later on.... via alternative means
I believe we all get our 15 mins of fame - but this might come at any time in our lives - so make the most of it when it comes!!!!
I'm not sure if a republican protest against the queen is my cup of tea, and also whether it falls under 'human rights' or is a freedom of speech to put across ones views - maybe the two are the same these days! We do hear so much "that's my human right ...... (to do whatever)", its a catch-all it seems.
Just wondering, does the Scottish dimension play a part in the republican protest or is that irrelevant to the argument in this case?
In what manner are the new commandments being given? Commandments suggest a certain forcefulness to agree.
sweetcaroline,
Do you know the Queen has just shut down the Canadian parliament ?
I've posted a thread in the "International politics" section.
I suggest you read it - I think you'll find it quite interesting.
