Before I die, I want to see Scotland listed in a Microsoft localisation drop down selector. I want to cheer Scottish athletes at the Olympics. I want to hear a Scottish diplomat addressing the UN assembly.

But most of all I want the people of Scotland to have the opportunity to benefit from finally taking control of their own destinies. To walk the walk of freedom and national pride. I have no doubt that as an independent nation we would comfortably take our place along side the greatest of the worlds nations and impact the course of mankind in a positive way.

But first the exorcism of the colonial malaise must take place .... eyes must be opened and voices heard .... Its our time .... but maybe also our last chance.

This Blog is my sounding board on why, we as a people seem unable or unwilling to break free of colonial rule. Why we prefer subjugation and self-delusion above self promotion and national pride. I dare say that along the way I will comment on most of the other 'bullshit' out there ... after all there is plenty of it. Media hype, Political deceipt, Commercial greed and much more.

Our earth ship, like the Titanic IS heading through dangerous waters and like the Titanic the 'Commanders' are not listening to the warnings, being more intereted in 'speed records' and 'company profits' and 'partying' !!

Sculking behind it all the 'Wall street wizards' who shuffle fate to optimise their gains, with not a moments glance back at the suffering masses.

A world governed by worm tongues & bank clerks!!! OMG!
