Hurry up family come on

Must be getting old, came in from the pub with Sam and the kids absolutely knackered. I am know having a much needed Sunday after diner rest.
How is it that we ate at the pub, Sunday diner, and come home tired yet if we had eaten at home we would be fine. Do you think they put something in it?
On a completely different note. It has just been announced on the local news that a car driver escaped serious injury when a rock was thrown from a bridge over the A14. There was a spate of these incidents on the A12 a few months ago. Trouble is, while the press give these idiots publicity they will think its cool. It also means that others think its cool to do something that will make the news so they join in, and you end up with a fad, all it needs then is a cool name.
The press have been guilty of this kind of notorious fame for years now. Giving things a cool name, like joy riding, and happy slapping. Don't make it sound cool and give it air time and it will die out.
It's pretty much the same thing with terrorists, don't give them publicity. They do these things to get noticed and it therefore goes that if no one hears about it they don't achieve their goal.
I understand that this is a very simplistic point of view but I really believe there's something in it.
We are in the age of small time fame and some people will do anything for it.
