Lakenheath Old Boys

We are all former students at Lakenheath High School and other public schools in East Anglia. We were in school in the 70s and 80s and drank deeply from the well of British culture of those decades - the pints, the telly, and of course the footie!

The Weirdest Political Ad. in History?

In possibly the weirdest (and most unintentionally hilarious) political advertisements I've seen in yonks, former Hewlett Packard CEO Carly Fiorina attacks her GOP primary rival in California for being a FCINO (Fiscal Conservative in name only). The first few seconds are boilerplate, but then Carly gets all Monty Python on us with sheep rising on pillars. And what on earth in going on with the "wolf in sheep's clothing" with bright red eyes. Not surprisingly there is already a Pink Floyd mash-up of the ad, which you can see by cutting and pasting the following link:

So, turn off the lights, light up a fatty and enjoy!
