Hmmm....

He's been staring in the mirror again.

Does anyone else suspect Silvio might be a Vampire?

Note the hair.

And how old is he, shouldn't he be dead yet?

And that taste for buxom young women?
(actually, kinda with him on the last one...)

Funny, spell check offers "Balcony" as first alt for Burlusconi (well he does hang out a bit).

I'm just envious because  I've never been invited to one...

To clarify!!!

With the girls.
Not Silvio!

HMRC admits errors in corporate tax "deals"

Quite why they are referring to them as "deals" I'm not sure, UK law states what tax should be paid, it should then be paid, not a "deal" made around it.

But since even the Zeig Mail backed them on this, the Met have backed down.

[Jaspersharpe]

Yes and now it comes full circle. Whoever was advising the Met on this obviously got it very wrong (or was ignored):

Italian scientists on trial for failing to predict earthquake 

[SA Chris]

Bit extreme, but it does sound like he was a bit arrogant in his response.

In one much-quoted interview, Bernardo De Bernardinis, then vice-chief of the technical division of the Civil Protection Agency, responded casually to a question about whether residents should just sit back and relax with a glass of wine. "Absolutely – a Montepulciano Doc," he replied.

[slackline]

Yeah, 'cause predicting earthquakes with any degree of accuracy is a robust science!

He's Italian.

Really slackers? thanks for that. I really appreciate it when you explain these things to me, as I'm an idiot.

Being an arrogant prick seems to be his field of expertise, as per Jasper's comment.

[slackline]

When I read it I thought he was being blasé rather than arrogant but life would be boring if everyone interpreted everything the same (or was it the particular choice of vino that was arrogant?). 
 
Bit of a dumb question from the CPA in the first place, and if you ask a stupid question, you'll often get a stupid answer.
