Welcome to the BIGfib End Of Year Special!
Proof, if any is needed, that somehow we made it through the year of Terror.
Yes despite the constant threat of Terror, Terrorists and Terry wogan we all survived to see another day.
And it was a terrifying year, but in the end most of the terror came not from shady sleeper-cells but from our politicians whipping us into a trembling frenzy about various unspecified threats. It's the only way they've worked out to keep their power, and strangely, the more they talk of terror the more it actually seems to whip up... I think there's a sea-change happening, and I think the people of the world are tired of terror. Sure, it was fun for a while watching the terror levels rise and fall, sure, it made something to watch on TV, but I think we're bored with the concept now. Maybe the politicians hadn't accounted for our ADHD attention span. Maybe 2006 will go down as the year politicians had to start talking of peace on earth.
The other thing 2005 had in abundance was nature. Tsunamis, hurricanes and earthquakes wreaked havoc across the world, and the world acted with unprecedented generosity - a wonderful sight... |

...
For some tragedies, in New Orleans for example, our governments were shamefully slow getting around to doing anything at all, whilst in others, and I'm thinking of the Pakistan/Kashmir earthquake region, they still haven't done anything meaningful.
Seeing as you're reading this, you're probably, like me, one of the lucky ones, so maybe you can ask yourself if you couldn't spare a little cash - everything helps - for the millions who are homeless and starving in the disaster region that the world for some reason (and I'm thinking Muslim here, am I right?) forgot. If everyone who sees this web page gave 10 dollars, it would generate 500,000 dollars to feed, clothe, and shelter the children of Kashmir. Let 2006 begin as we mean it to continue. As a year of peace and love to all mankind.
