The only risk with "Guilt Free Pleasure" is that, that entitles some to abuse slaves, where the slave doesn't know he is a slave, or being abused.

Guilt Free Pleasure allows Capitalists to exploit workers, where the worker does not know he is being exploited.

Guilt Free Pleasure allows illegal loggers to log illegally, after all they are NOT harming anyone, their conscious is clear.

Guilt Free Pleasure allows hunters to hunt animals for sport or trophies, even to extinction. They are not harming ANY ONE, which seems to be the only premise or requisite for GFP.

And of course partying loud would be GFP, if you invite the neighbours, the neighbours are deaf, or u have no neighbours.

Incidentally your strawberry looks remarkably like one of those upside down heads, you know when you use the stubbly chin and draw eyebrows on it, and the mouth (real mouth upside down) speaks.

Gosh there must be a name for it.

Would a new runway at Stansted classify as Guilt Free Pleasure for the architect, designer, developer & construction company.

Pleasure = Profit = Pleasure

Or does the fact that Greens oppose it (because it harms locals, local habitats & would increase pollution) make it Guilt Ridden Pleasure.

Great sketch

Is that a metaphor? Can you really bed the whole of Strawberry Fair.

I like the touch with the cigarrette. I didn't know you smoked

I don't, and neither does Bill, but he's an actor, so it's probably just a herbal cigarette...

Is there any way tou can remove that Active X thing?

I have to click thrice to close it, each time I visit.

It first appeared when you set up your music on MP3

That's the next thing that'll fall off the page, so then your worries will be over, until the next time I put one on. I try only the use Quicktime file formats, so I don't know what Windows' (Windows's?) problem is...

Or you could just buy a Mac or go Linux *8)
