<Bettina> annie? i think i was in club bed on the same day......if it was a thursday....
<Annie> no think it was tuesday...
<Thorsen> @cj1: You think MTV Germany is crap? Then try VIVA TV and you´ll know what real crap is
<Bettina> but i can be wrong
<bigc> fine, make me feel jealous ;)
<Bettina> ok
<cj1> that is true Thorsen!!!
<bigc> i saw some MTV Germany, they were playing right said fred-lol
<Tanja1> MTV Germany sucks so much, Thorsen! Compare it to the old MTV Europe!
<bigc> opschool?
<bigc> lol
<cj1> i was in clubbed early august 95!! can´t remember the exact date!
<hammy> ßßß 
<[DJGM]> Compare MTVUK to the old MTV Europe  . . . !
<bigc> MTV UK is crap

<[DJGM]> No comparison, MTVE was definitely better!
<bigc> dj, have you ever seen Hitlist UK?
<[DJGM]> My old MTV Visitior pass is stuck to the front of my wallet!
<Bettina> i liked three from one at 4
<[DJGM]> It's a bit worn out and threadbare now though!

<Annie> who was on the show when you were all there then?

<Tanja1> Cast were on, and I didn´ t know them at the time
<bigc> levellers, local band.

<Annie> yeah i got some unknown fench band called alliance ethnic
<bigc> my dad taught one of them
<Tanja1> Taught who?
<bigc> one of the levellers
<bigc> heh, he taught him history, probably gave him the idea for the name
<Tanja1> Has Ray been on any chat recently?
<Tanja1> Missed so many!
<cj1> unfortunately they had to change the audience during the show because there were so many people there
<[DJGM]> Ray was here last time, as I recall.

<Tanja1> Has he moved there yet?
<Bettina> yes he has
<cj1> he is too serious in these shows!!!

<[DJGM]> Back where, who knows?
<bigc> yeah, i noticed that
<cj1> no he isn´t, though I can´t understand a word he is saying!
<Tanja1> Joke, I fear
<OasX> ahhh didnt know ray wrote on the guestbook.. hadnt seen it before
<bigc> i'm multitasking at the moment, i'm here, and helping someone use comic chat
<[DJGM]> Well, we can ask him what he meant when he get's here . . .
<bigc> he does indeed OasX
<bigc> as do i

<Bettina> i just read the documentary was shown on 15aug in germany! didnt know that :-( i was waiting for it on aug1
<Danel> Ray said: "From September for those who can see, I am happy to say I'll be back on Arte with that superbly filmed music show I do, and I have a few other projects up my sleeve which you will hopefully see one day on a TV screen near you...

<LasseDK> nein - ûber haupt nicht... aber normal sprechen wir nur english hier...
<hammy> my cats are on trip

<OasX> lets speak danish :)
<Danel> if there are any haters of any kind in here, they will not get to stay for long
<Thorsen> @lasse: I know. Sorry for that
<Tanja1> funny how they didnt show the MW repeat in Germany, when there´s so many Ray fans here
<Thorsen> Let´ s speak Austrian, ok?
<bigc> look, thorsten
<[DJGM]> They'll probably show it eventually.
<bigc> i'm british, i dont hate the germans
<LasseDK> thats ok Thorsen... as long as i understand you all...
<cj1> whats it with you and the Austrians all the time, thorsen??
<raysgirl> repeats r not good enough anyway tanja!
<bigc> anyway, its out of ingorance
<Bettina> MW repetitions? really? did you talk about that earlier?did they really show  mw again on other mtv channels than in germany??
<Thorsen> @tanja: The did show 15 years special. Ray was in there, too
<chryssi25> i hope they will show some most wanted reruns
<[DJGM]> I hate any kind of unnecessary prejudice.
<bigc> they showed it on VH1
<bigc> !
<Tanja1> I know Thorsten
<chryssi25> yeah when he was young and sexy and had hair gg
<Tanja1> still want the repeat too
<Thorsen> I will not insult you in German, that´ s my word
<bigc> dj, i agree with you
<bigc> predjudice is the last refuge of a coward
<chryssi25> yeah tell me about it
<bigc> wow...where did that come from?
<bigc> i dont know where i got that
<bigc> but it sounds good 
<bigc> and is true
<Bettina> i was wondering too, bigc;-) just kidding....
<bigc> hey, just cos i'm 14 dont mean i'm stupid
<Thorsen> @bigc: Yeah, we all should get along. I love UK, I love London, I love the Isles. Of course, some Germans don´ t like the British
<Bettina> no, i wrote i am kidding! 
<chryssi25> yeah well i guess you all dont have to many problems with prejudice
<cj1> I love the UK, London is my favourite city in the world!!!
<bigc> well, the minority always spoil it for
<bigc> the majorty
<bigc> oops
<bigc> awful spelling there
<bigc> my favourite city is Venice
<Thorsen> I love Camden Town
<Tanja1> How come you´re a Ray fan, bigc, if you didnt see Most Wanted back then?
<chryssi25> well i have got problems with prejudice just about every day in my life
<bigc> well, i saw the still wanted weekend
<bigc> chryssi, i feel for you :(
<Tanja1> oh, cool
<Thorsen> @bettina: Woher bist du?
<bigc> yeah
<chryssi25> and you know why because im disabled
<Bettina> ich wohne in berlin, bin hier auch geboren
<bigc> yeah
<[DJGM]> I hear prejudice a lot at home.
<Tanja1> London is so nice, but its way too expensive
* LasseDK would like to go to Berlin some day....
<chryssi25> why that dj
<Thorsen> in the 15 years special I realised once more how outstanding was MTV Europe and MW
<bigc> Tanja, brighton is getting very expensive
<Bettina> yeah, lasse:;-)
<bigc> lol, i'll probably have to move away when i leave home
<Thorsen> @bettina: Oh, weit weit weg von mir
<[DJGM]> My father is very racist, especially towards Pakistanis, and Jewish ppl.
<bigc> :(
<Tanja1> England is expensive! Spent 9 months in Birmingham!
<chryssi25> thats not good
<Thorsen> @DJ: Where is he from?
<cj1> thats sad, dj
<Bettina> @thorsten: ist das so schlimm?:-)
<chryssi25> yeah thats very sad dj
<bigc> Tanja, house prices in brighton are almost as high as london
<Thorsen> @tanja: Is it more expensive than London?
<bigc> luckily i dont know any racist people
<cj1> if i should win the lottery I would love to buy a flat in London!!
<bigc> i set people straight about ayslum seekers though
<[DJGM]> He likes to refer to them as "Pakis" or "schmock", which is very unfair.
<Thorsen> @bettina: nein
<bigc> how they arent villians...
<chryssi25> well i dont want anything to do with those ppl
<Tanja1> London is more expensive than Birmingham, but the whole of England is much more exp. than Germany
<Thorsen> aha, schmock is jiddish
<cj1> have you tried to talk to him about that, dj?
<[DJGM]> Yeah, but there's no reasoning with him.
<Thorsen> @bigc: in my homeland there are many racists. rural 
<chryssi25> thats rotten dj
<bigc> sometimes peoples views come from their upbringing
<bigc> thorsten, sorry to hear that
<chryssi25> thats treu
<[DJGM]> He's doesn't like black ppl either!
<chryssi25> oops true
<bigc> i was brought up in a left-wing house
<Thorsen> theres no black in the union jack?
<Tanja1> I know a policeman who´s racist! How bad is that!
<chryssi25> thats awful
<Thorsen> @tanja: in Deutschland?
<bigc> well, Tanja, there were quite a few racist policemen over here
<cj1> i think we dont have more racist people here than anywhere else in the world
<hammy> i know a policeman who drinks
<[DJGM]> I wish I could respect him, but I don't when he keeps saying awful things about other races.
<chryssi25> i believe you dj it must be awful
<cj1> why does he have this attitude?
<bigc> upbringing..
<Tanja1> it´ s hard to respect the police when they are racists or alcoholics
<[DJGM]> He reckons he's a "traditionalist" . . .
<bigc> i cant imagine
<bigc> what it would be like, because i'd get so pissed off
<cj1> when you grow you develop your own opinion - it can´t be all upbringing!!!
<chryssi25> well i see no tradition in that
* Hunga (your@line-13-38.dial.matav.net) has joined #rayroom
<bigc> true cj
<bigc> hi hunga
<hammy> ray, europa calling
<cj1> hi hunga
<Bettina> hungary i guess
<Tanja1> Hello Hunga
<[DJGM]> Hi hunga.
<chryssi25> hi hunga
<Hunga> Hi everybody
<hammy> hi
<bigc> its worrying though, with le pen and people..
<cj1> it is indeed worrying, bigc
<bigc> also, the war on Iraq :(
<chryssi25> well i see a lot of prejudice brought towards me just because im different
<[DJGM]> My dad's OK with Indian and Sikh's but he has a serious attitude against Muslims.
<bigc> well, chryssi, that just isnt right
<Thorsen> @bigc: In Germany I prepare myself for Stoiber
<bigc> :(
<chryssi25> no need to tell me
<bigc> sorry
<[DJGM]> He thinks all Muslims are troublemaker, whicvh I believe is totally untrue.
<cj1> well, Stoiber isn´t half as bad as LePen!
<chryssi25> i dont get a job because they think i cant work
<bigc> i just couldnt think of anything else to say, stuff like that just makes me angry
<Thorsen> @cj: Yeah, thats true?
<chryssi25> mee to it makes me rally angry
<bigc> luckily we dont have this problem in the UK
<cj1> sorry to say that dj, but your dad is totally stupid!!!
<Thorsen> Who is dangerous in the UK. Can someone tell me?
<Tanja1> Stoiber is an asshole (my opinion), but he´ s not from an extreme party
* raysgirl (kjkj@ACB52035.ipt.aol.com) has left #rayroom
<Thorsen> @tanja: Yeah, but Schröder isn´ t good, too
<chryssi25> yeah thats true
<[DJGM]> I managed to shut him up one day, when he said something nasty about a black athlete.
<bigc> chryssi, i try and channel my anger into trying to work against racism and discrimination
<bigc> thorsten, we dont really have anyone dangerous
<hammy> stoiber is extremist
<Tanja1> I dont think any extreme party will get into German parliament in September
<bigc> although the media is screwing things
<[DJGM]> Most of the time I just ignore his ignorance.
<bigc> so
<bigc> most people arent voting
<Thorsen> @bigc: Lucky one. The Scots? hah
<bigc> anymore
<chryssi25> yeah i would like to do something like zhat to but i dont get a chance
<Thorsen> just a joke
<bigc> ok
<cj1> i dont think he his, hammy!!
<Thorsen> @hammy: no, Stoiber is bavarian, hehe
<bigc> turn out for last english general election was only 59%
<Tanja1> Even my grandma wont vote this time. Thinks they are all bad
<hammy> let it be
<Thorsen> @tanja; Glaub ich auch nicht. 
<bigc> i dont like most parties, but i'd still vote
<[DJGM]> I said to him, "Just keep your nasty small minded pathetic comments to yourself. Nobody but yourself wants to hear them. Now just shut the hell up!"
<chryssi25> they are all rubbish they all talk but they dont do anything
<hammy> stoiber is no good
<bigc> yeah, but if you dont vote
<bigc> the nutters who do(for fascists)
<chryssi25> wtg dj you tell him
<Thorsen> @hammy: You´e right
<bigc> get in
<cj1> though, I don´t know who to vote for!!
<[DJGM]> He never expected that outburst from me!
<bigc> vote for a left -wing party :)
<Tanja1> wow, dj, that´ s hard to say to your parents
<chryssi25> i bet but keep it up dj you stick up for your opinion
<bigc> well done dj
<[DJGM]> I finished off my outburst by calling him a "hateful old man".
<OasX> :o)
<cj1> how old are you, dj?
<[DJGM]> I think I hurt him, but he deserved that!
<bigc> yeah
<bigc> the truth hurts
<bigc> everyone, what do you think about the possible war on Iraq>
<bigc> ?
<chryssi25> well its better to tell the truth even if it hurts
<Thorsen> @bigc: complete bullshit
<[DJGM]> Most of the time I do respect him, except when he's coming out with nasty unwarranted remarks.
<Thorsen> Bush is the antichrist
<bigc> yeah,
<bigc> i agree
<chryssi25> me too
<bigc> he only wants war so he can get re-elected
<Tanja1> Bush is a war monger !
<chryssi25> lets hope so
<OasX> i dont really like bush, but saddam is a problem we will have to deal with
<bigc> only cos of oil
<bigc> well
<chryssi25> yeah but there must be an other way
<Thorsen> Yeah, that´s true. Saddam is still a menace to the world
<hammy> noone should be reelected for war
<bigc> too many people have died 
<bigc> well, thats what happens
<Tanja1> saddam has never used the weapons he is said to have, so dont encourage him by attacking
<[DJGM]> Saddam needs sorting out, but it's extremely difficult probably impossible to find a solution that everyone can agree on.
<Thorsen> Yes, there is no evidence
<bigc> personally, i'm kind of anti-US
<Tanja1> Bush senior didnt  get reelected after the Golf war!!!
<bigc> being as they armed saddam...
<Tanja1> So lets hope
<bigc> yeah, thats true
<bigc> yeah, i'm hoping
<chryssi25> maybe not anti us but anti bush
<OasX> just by not letting un? weapon inspectors into iraq, he is saying he is developing some nasty weapons
<hammy> what said ray about coming tonight. can anyone answer that?
<bigc> i;m only anti-us cos
<Thorsen> I´m against US-patriotism
<bigc> of all the stuff they did in 50s,60s,70s,80s
<bigc> against socialist regimes
<Danel> hammy, he said he would be on vacation - but not for how long... I don't think he will join us tonight
<chryssi25> yupp quite richt
<bigc> they helped dictators get in(e.g:chile)
<bigc> pinochet
<Tanja1> yes, I couldnt believe it when I heard about it bigc!
<Thorsen> @bigc: That´s true. They supported Pinochet, those bastards
<bigc> how many people did he kill
<hammy> i am so sad
<bigc> well, most people dont know the truth
<bigc> also, in africa..
<Thorsen> Not forget to mention Africa
<bigc> i was about to
<bigc> rwanda, angola
<[DJGM]> I remember Harrison Ford played what Letterman referred to as "a kick-ass president" Meanwhile Clinton was "a grab-ass president"
<cj1> well, don´t get me wrong, but nobody like Bush jun. before Sept. 11th, now most of the US citizens do!!
<bigc> yeah
<[DJGM]> Now the US has a dumb-ass president!
<cj1> lol@dj
<bigc> clinton wasnt that bad
<cj1> i liked clinton
<Thorsen> yeah, Texas dumbass
<OasX> clinton was great
<bigc> he managed to almost solve the palestinan situation
<Tanja1> Clinton was good, because he was harmless
<chryssi25> well i´ ve gotta go off for a bit i want to make a hp might come in again in a bit see yas all
<[DJGM]> Clinton was OK, it was Letterman who referred to him as the "grab-ass president".
<Tanja1> Bush is dangerous

<bigc> s
<bigc> they kick me out :(
<Tanja1> Bush shits on everyone, in the International Court, Kyoto and everything else
<bigc> yeah, i forgot Kyoto
<[DJGM]> Blair ain't much better though.
<Tanja1> US soldiers must be committing war crimes then, if they dont want to be subject to the court
<cj1> Bush thinks he has the power to rule over the whole world by ignoring that stuff
<hammy> and his family is kind of little bad too
<bigc> yeah, well he is better than Iain Duncan-Smith
<bigc> if only decent people got involved in policitics

<[DJGM]> I think the UK should keep the pound. I mean, why scrap the world 4th strongest currency, for something that is little more than a political pipedream.
<bigc> at this moment in time,yeah,but.
<Kirsten> do you have a general election coming up or something?? if so I missed that completely
<bigc> 4th strongest 
<bigc> Kirsten, i dont know
<cj1> I wished we kept the C
<bigc> one country might
<OasX>  i hope denmark switches to euro some time
<Kirsten> hehe, but you´e british, bigc??
<cj1> oops , i wished we kept the DM - but we were not asked
<bigc> who started this discussion
<[DJGM]> I would only ever support the Euro if it became a very strong currency, and the pound became very weak and beyond help.
<bigc> I'm british,yeah
<bigc> i think i did...lol
<hammy> because you have the channel tunnel, and connected with europe
<Thorsen> @dj: you think the Euro is a pipedream? Ok, the pound is strong...
<Kirsten> well i guess you´ know if there was one coming up soon. 
<[DJGM]> At the mo, the only advantage of the Euro, IMO, is there'd be no-need to change our money when we go on holiday to another part of the EU.
<bigc> i would Kirsten, my dad teaches policitics
<bigc> oops
<bigc> politics
<cj1> that is true dj
<bigc> yeah, DJ, thats right
<Kirsten> oh yes you would find out very soon then i suppose :) i like the euro
<bigc> i like the euro too
<Thorsen> @DJ: Yeah, that´s the point
<[DJGM]> Let's face it, the Euro hasn't exactly been a runaway success though has it? It's nosedived in value since its launch in 1999.
<bigc> dj, i'm no ecomonist..lol
<Kirsten> hey!! so i´ not the only one in here getting slaughtered for standing up for it! great!! :)
<cj1> they should try to develop a european banking system 
<[DJGM]> It may get stronger in the future, but until that day, I prefer to keep the pound in my pocket.
<cj1> that is more important than the notes and  coins!!
<bigc> Kirsten, where are you from>
<Kirsten> it did lose some value it´ picking up at the mo´ i don´ know that much about it, i just like the idea.
<Kirsten> germany, bigc.
<bigc> ok, where?
<bigc> (in germany)
<Kirsten> far west close to the dutch border
<bigc> ok
<bigc> i was in germany in June
<Kirsten> whereabouts in britain are you from??
<bigc> near cologne
<bigc> i'm from brighton
<[DJGM]> In a way, it's a nice idea, in that it bring Europe together, but I don't agree with having our finances controlled by unelected bureaucrats in another country.
<Kirsten> where in g.??
<bigc> on the southcoast
<[DJGM]> I'm in Manchester.
<bigc> i was around cologne/koblenz
<Kirsten> okay, that´ not too far of, about 200 k from here
<bigc> ok
<[DJGM]> Up north where we've just had the Commonwealth Games.
<bigc> yeah, 
<[DJGM]> Whic was cool.

<Thorsen> No sorry, but I like Scotland

<Kirsten> yep, me too, been there last year, it´ so lovely :)
<[DJGM]> I think some of Commonwealth Games coverage was on Eurosport, courtesy of the BBC.
<Thorsen> Would Seamus be a better name for a scot
<[DJGM]> Nah, Seamus is an Irish name!
<Kirsten> hehe, yeah probably 
<Kirsten> oh, okay, dj
<bigc> how about allie?
<Thorsen> @DJ: Sorry, I realised it, too
<Thorsen> how does my name sound like?
<[DJGM]> How about McVitie?
<Thorsen> McBoozer?
<[DJGM]> How can you tell if a Scotsman is a member of the McVitie Clan?
<Kirsten> sounds scandinavian to me, i know thorsten that´ quite common in germany.
<[DJGM]> Look under his kilt, and you'll see his Hob-Nob!
<bigc> lol, crude 
<Kirsten> hihi
