THE PRICE OF REWARDING TERRORISM

You do not defeat terrorism by rewarding terrorists, regardless of how many bleeding heart liberals argue otherwise. Want to know where that flawed approach leads to? Read UNIONISM DECAYED 1997-2007 - It's my first book and it explains what happens when you seeek to appease terrorists and call it peace. It's available right now for ATW readers so make sure you get your copy by emailing the editor! This is the book that dissents from the herd mentality that doing wrong can lead to being right. It doesn't and this book spells out WHY.

RUBBER SOUL...

DateFriday, November 6, 2009 at 08:41AM

I was tickled to read that waxworks of The Beatles have reportedly melted in the Indian heat at the same event where the group's original drummer, Pete Best, performed.

"Intense heat in New Delhi softened the wax in John Lennon's feet and began to distort the features of fellow band members Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and George Harrison, according to India's Mail Today newspaper. The figures - with an insurance value of £100,000 - were taken to India by Liverpool museum The Beatles Story and are on display at a shopping mall in south Delhi."

I don't know about you but I find all these waxworks a little bit creepy and somehow or another the figures never seem that real. Madame Tussauds seems to draw huge crowds but having been there once, I would never bother going back.

Still, I hope it's there this time next week when I'll be in Delhi.

I agree. I find the wax works very strange. It must be even stranger to be a figure in wax.
