Footprints in the Sands of Time

So how will we be remembered by the giant insects that will take over when we've finished making a mess of the planet? Will they have television as I quite like the idea of a version of Time Team where the main digger is a beetle with a Wiltshire accent and the presenter is a cockroach - Oh hang on a minute he already is....Tony Robinson funny as Baldrick, insufferable as anything else.

And then there is the whole issue of scottish politicians - the now deposed leader of the liberals for example - what a stereotype scot - red hair and a drink problem. Then there's George "I'm not a member of the Ba'aath Party" Galloway -safely, for now anyway, locked away in the celebrity big brother house with a number of other questionable personalities. (if you're really not happy about this then follow this link http://beta.cergis.com/george/) and assorted others who are lounging around the Palace of Westminster. Now as they have their own parliament why can't the buggers go up there instead.

And just think what the insects will make of some of the pseudoentertainment that we have on our television stations...all those soap operas Emmerdale Street and so on, daytime chat shows presented by all sorts of refugees from reality and then of course there's channel 5.....
