Would John Gormley do this?

In your time of trouble, would John Gormley do this?

I bet he would have recylced the iron bar!

Breaking news - a dog dies!

An old dog died today. Not just any old dog, the oldest dog in the world, ahem.

I have to go out now and get a black armband and fly the flag at half mast.

Obviously Fake video exposed as fake.

I read this on Sky News today and lost what little respect I had for the "news" channel.

The Star Bar challenge

I saw an ad for the volvic challenge recently. A challenge to drink water for 14 days. Easy. Too Easy, so I am embarking on a star bar challenge, I intend to eat a star bar every day for 14 days.

It's like a rubbish supersize me or a better idea than drinking water for 14 days. You decide!

Hoop la like this blows my mind

I just read that Entropia the online game has been granted a licence to be a bank. Does that make any sense to you?

At first it made me feel unusual, but when I read there was over $400 million dollars worth of tansactions going on then I though that ain't a bad idea.

I think I should set up an online wold like that. Maybe Virtual Grfit.com I wonder would it work?

Ward off the recession - Marry a dog.

I read this story on Sky News today. A boy has married a dog in India, to avoid being killed by a tiger.

That is a sentence I never dreamed off typing.

Sellotape X-rays

Sometimes science and it's application amazes me. This is truly amazing. Who needs an expensive MRI, I'm going to get the sticky tape out tonight.

3k, it's a start

I got out last for a 3k run last night which is a nice start. I hope to get out for 5k on wednesday. It was about 18:30 when I went into the local park so I was very surprised to see a woman in a wedding dress standing in a muddy field having her picture taken.

It was dark, it was cold, it was mucky and it was weird!

The run was grand though, the cycling has really helped my fitness so my lungs felt comfortable all the way round.

Monkey Business

There were massive traffic jams on the N11 last night. There is nothing new about that but this time the reason was a bit different.

There was an escaped monkey loose on the road!

The AA thought there were a lot of crazy people ringing in last night, but no there was a real monkey on the loose.

If only all traffic jams were caused by monkies!!!

Leaping Lizards!

This lizard has just become a father at the age of 111. And I thought Julio Iglesias was old :o)

Odd facts from Wikipedia

I love wikipedia and browse through it randomly most days. I come across some bizzare and random things.

I happened to be looking up Gerry Adams, to see if he was a sitting MP and I came across a wonderful nugget of information. Back in the 1980s there was a bizarre ban on the voice of Gerry Adams and 11 other leading republicans and loyalists. The voice was actually done by an actor called Paul Loughran, better known to you and I as Butch Dingle from Emmerdale.

Nick Drake

I just came across Nick Drake singing the theme from Rainbow. It's a long way from Black-eyed Dog.

Free Drugs!

The Japanese are giving out free drugs to air passengers. It is a scary story, it could end up like Midnight Run!

Please God sort out petrol prices.

I read this today and I was baffled. With all the stuff in the world going wrong, all the natural disasters and wars and general awfulness and they decide to pray for petrol prices to come down.

God will be displeased.

Ah Venice...

So you are in one of the most beautiful cities in the world, you have some cameras, what do you do? Of course you follow women around and try and take pictures up their skirts. There are some peculiar people out there!

How desperate...

would you have to be to do this. I wonder were the bank notes in dollar bills?

Tom Cruise Skit

Check out this Skit of the Tom Cruise Scientology Video. It's good clean fun.

Smoking the weed.

If you want to smoke the weed you have to normally meet someone unsavoury and purchase the ganja but not in the lil ole U S of A. You can go to a vending machine!!! So in the country where you can do life for having small amounts of drugs, you can now get your medicinal ganja from a vending machine.

It's a great idea because getting drugs is difficult ;o)

Goths

Check out the story about the Goths who were banned from the bus. I just don't know where to start on this one but being led around on a chain!!! Come on people!!!
