    Bwahahahahaha! That is great.
    Capitalization is the difference between "I had to help my Uncle Jack off a horse." and "I had to help my uncle jack off a horse."

    So, he puts the Gates in 'delegates'?

    Who needs leadership and interest when you have more money than is decent? I think his hard work and buccaneer mentality has already won him more than his fair share of capital, so he has every right to slacken off now.

    This was an amusing story. I'm not in Britain now, but apparantely this made every tabloid (ie about 75% of the newspaper market) in Britain. They ended up with slightly red faces. Its ok though, because the british public forgot about it by the time they'd spilled marmalade on the next page of the paper.

    Good story for laughing at British media though.
