The term 'brainstorm' is an oxymoron when applied to politicians. Most
don't seem to have any.

Recent events in London wouldn't have made the second page if it had
happened in Tel Aviv. They endure those things almost every day. That
doesn't make the bombing any less horrendous.

"Thought-shower" would more closely fit the term "brainwashing" than
"brainstorming" IMHO.

I just sent one of my glare guards to Belfast. I hope it's safe there.
I'll see if the buyer will send photos of it in combat for my website.
Surprisingly, they bought basic black instead of the new camo version.

Think Tanks imply that diplomacy doesn't work.

A more accurate term for politicians would be brain fart...

Ms Whitebread, the HR dragon at the old puzzlepalace, let us know
that the terms "spook project" and "black project" should not be used.

Ms Whitebread didn't get past the doors with the dials, so it didn't
change anything.
