Gordon Brown's just launched the Labour Party's Election campaign (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/8524351.stm) and introduced their slogan "A Future Fair For All".

I heartily approve of this message; I think this is tremendous ambition for the country. I hope there are going to be Dodgems, they're my favourite.

"A Future Fair For All".

If you believe this, I'll have to add your name to the "sucker" list.

This is a line from Firesign Theatre.
"A future fair for all and no fair to anybody. Welcome to the future!"

The album is "I Think we are all Bozos on This Bus"

If you have never heard of them please check them out. If you have then you know what I am talking about.

"Fair" like a carnival?

Bread and Circuses comes to my mind...

I don't think it's realistically possible or reasonably possible to have a future that will work perfectly for all. We can strive to be fair and reasonable, of course...

I wonder if Apple is planning on debuting its next-generation iPhone there.

I'm really warming to the idea of this "Future Fair." I hope they have cotton candy.

The best ballerinas will have to wear inhibitors to make it more fair for the bad ones?

A Kurt Vonnegut fan, I gather.

And don't forget about the ethical suicide parlors. Right next to the Howard Johnsons.
