Thought, experience and memory from a brain in a jar, one that sometimes has control over a thirty-two-year-old Londonite.

Ever since the Kelly affair, BBC News have had a delightful way with words:

"His stinging attacks on his colleagues in a new biography, second allegations - also denied - of a separate visa incident, his use of Parliamentary perks for his mistress, his continuing battle over access to the child he believes is his - all were combining to weaken his position on an almost daily basis."

BBC News

My favourite bit of BBC journalism was an explanation that, because both Blair and Bush were facing elections in the near future, a particular meeting "would" be the last time they met. They don't mince with the modal verbs, them BBC lot.
