Watching Germany win the World Cup in LA last night, what a crackin header,& Did you know that on the two days after 9/11 when all US planes were grounded 23 members of the Bin laden family, who live there were personally allowed by the White House to fly away, what a strange old world innit.

Isn't it odd how a Palestinian Jew, who never once was recorded as mentioning Homosexuality should be used in todays possible second Schism debate within the Anglican Church. Catholics and Anglicans alike both Worshipping the "Prince of Peace" on an equal footing, but insisting that their version of God's word is the true one ? I wonder what Henry VIII would think, probably want to cut all their bloody heads off, good lad that he was ?

Back on subject. Magic Moments

#1
On holiday in Aus last year. Got followed for 10 minutes on the Sydney -> Manly ferry by a pod of 5-10 dolphins. This is apparently a frequent event though my Aussie friends claimed never to have seen it before (3 years in Sydney). Either way for me it was totally magical.

#2
Flying to New York about 5 years ago, Just approaching the East Coast at dusk when the pilot says 'Look out of the right side of the plane and you can see the space shuttle'. Sure enough the shuttle had just taken off and was clearly visible as it dissappeared into the night sky. Amazing!!

Ya, is for sure, a Palestinian Jew - Dr Wankenstein I presume - does his bike have a bell, or is his button pressed from the left-hand side of the counter? I know his cheese is strong, though, but the glow of the tabernacle he likes it from behind. Innit?

Wow, You sound incredibly well informed my lovely, almost as if you've had some divine experience yourself? Here in Berlin we proudly boast an excellent openly Gay Mayor, though I expect down your way they are mainly Stallions, have you read any Hardy, try it, it's rivetting.

Bye Matey, Fritz.xx innit.

A quiet afternoon with a fresh Private Eye magazine, telephone & things all switched off, sitting on the blog naturally.

For those non British folk out there who may not know of aforementioned Private Eye Magazine, please feel free to get to know it on a regular basis at http://www.private-eye.co.uk/
because as an institution and Non Party Affiliated newspaper it's simply unrivalled, innit.

Some recent examples from the offline steam powered hand held edition innit: Enjoy, no flies on me.


"Myiasis is thankfully a very rare condition,"
Dr Snehansu Pan told a press
conference at Burdwan Medical College Hospital in West Bengal, "and this is the
first case I have ever seen. It occurs mostly in South America, and we don't yet
know how the insects first invaded Chandan's body. But they did, and he has now
had live flies emerging from his genitals for the past four weeks."<br>
Dr Pan was speaking about the case of thirteen-year-old Chandan Goswami, whose
unusual condition has baffled the medical community and fascinated the Indian
media. "In myiasis, a body is invaded opportunistically by the larvae of certain
types of fly. Once they got inside Chandan's body, they began hatching
insidehim, and are now making their exit through his urinary tract, and flying
away at a rate of about five an hour. Despite performing a cystoscopy and
washing out his urinary tract with ether and chloroform , the flies are still
appearing, but we are in contact with South American doctors who have experience
of this condition, and we are determined to cure it. And as it is such a rare
case, we are providing the boy with accommodation, medicines, and food free of
charge, so the family has no need to feel concerned." Asked how they were
feeling, Chandan's parents told reporters "No one believed us when we told them
these flies were emerging from his toilet areas, until three or four flew out of
a small hole. He's been here for sixteen days, and isn't getting any better. But
the doctors keep telling us that this is quite normal, so we will have to be
patient."<FONT color=#ffffff> (Calcutta Telegraph, 23.06.03. Spotter: Nick
Burgoyne)


"I was feeling homesick, and wanted to go back to my parents," Charles D.
McKinley told transport officials in DeSoto, Texas, "but I didn't have any money
for the fare. A friend suggested that if I flew as cargo, I could charge the
$550 freight charge to my employer, so he helped seal me inside a crate, and I
sent myself here door-to-door by special delivery. I kept thinking that somebody
would hear the portable television I'd packed, but nobody spotted me, except for
the delivery driver at Dallas/Fort Worth Airport. He saw my eyes peering out
between the slats, thought I was a pig, and kicked open the box. But by that
time we were outside my parent's house, so I ran straight in and things were
fine."
But McKinleys unusual method of transport caused outrage amongst the Airline
Pilots Security Alliance, which advocates the arming of pilots against
terrorists. "This is a huge security risk," said Captain Phillip Beall, "because
a fuel-laden 767 full of crated humans could be commandeered and used in exactly
the same way as the fuel-laden planes on September 11. "Moreover, he's lucky
that he flew in planes with pressurised heated cabins, otherwise he'd have died.
And anyway, for $550, doesn't he realise that it would have been cheaper to fly
first-class than travel in a box?" (Bradenton Herald, 09.09.03)

EASTENDERS YEAH !!!

As a kid, chocolate milkshakes with the family when we'd go out for a drive in the country.

(From these rides grew my love for day trips, since we often made a day of it, and my interest in music, since dad always had something playing and we'd sing along.)

As a college student, "flip night", where if you called the bartender's coin toss your pint was free.

(From these nights grew my love of statistics, and my interest in high quality beer. )

I'm not a great filum buff, and watching it in German doesn't help matters, but
Alfred H, I reckon would have loved it, cos ee woz a perfectionist, and no, he
didn't sell sweets ! Everywoman's dream "Chris Reeve", and most sons and Fathers
top lady "Daryl Hannah"( and Meg R, cold shower Fritz, stop it) was also
inwolved. Recently I read Michael Caine's auto-thingy (A man I love and admire,
if yer don't, Fuck; Yer's) but I respect you all the same, innit, Hitchcock gave
him a break once, but Mike's principles didn't go wiv der job, so ee got ousted,
and Mr H never wanted anything to do with him again, heavy stuff, but Mr Caine's
rent was HIS problem.
My Welshman mate at school ended up gettin the prettiest
Gel in town, and from what I hear has quite a Clan these days to, so good on
them, and I hope it isn't too rough for Mum down thingy way innit ?

Love G(F).xxxx innit.

Piss: Not a lot ov people know this, but I heard a rumour that Steven

A truly Magic Moment would be being a butler/waiter at Number 10 Downing Street this evening, during a little bash Tony B & Gordon B his neighbóur will ne having. Me mate Dave tells me that neither of them will be facing the new Tory leader Howard in the near future, it will be Mr Jack Straw as I've always maintained, ever since 13.03.03. actually innit.

Fritz the Whatthebutlersaw!!!

Graham Ricketts

I think Tony may invite "red ken"to the bash as a warning to Gordon. If Howard came along they could all make faces at each other, he could dazzle them all with his perpetual smile, Gordon could grind his jaw, ken could do his ventriloquist act and if their'e really lucky Tony could clutch his chest and fall to the floor. Come to think of it it would be fun to invite Blunkett along without his dog.


GEOFFP

After last night's guest departed upon his merry way I watched a little tv (well
it's quite big actually !) and re-lived an old movie experience I'll never
forget. In 1977 after a spectacularly eventfull sixth form career I worked for a
few months in a cinema in Romford Essex as an allrounder to earn some beer
vouchers. "The Spy who loved me" with Roger Moore playin 007; was showing, and
in all I was delighted to have watched the film from start to finish some 47
times. In the end I was miming the words having unconsciously learned them all
in my boredome, though the beautiful Barbara Bach was good to see, later
becoming Ringo Starr's missus, and subsequently going together into alcohol
rehab, at George's Mums famous clinic, innit (another Barbara t'be sure). I was
saved strangely enough from this daily dillemma by the death of Elvis Presley,
which promted my manager to immediately show only old Elvis movies, bringing in
a deluge of screaming, drunken, unbelievably disconsolate middle aged women, we
had to prevent men actually coming in to take advantage of the situation, you
can imagine ? As a green 18 year old I was tasked on the second day to stand on
the stage in front of this screaming mass of hysteria (film had been stopped) to
appeal to their better sense of judgement ? and halt taking pictures of the
film, as it infringed copyright big style) needless to say I was shitting
myself, and without a microphone, was (like me)a hopeless case, no thanks to my cowardly
boss, who's job it really was. The cops were called in, all hell broke lose, but
nobody would leave, we compramised by holding the camera's until later (well
most of them, still plenty of flashing going on throughout) and when they all
left the place was like a bomb had hit it, stinking of puke, Gin, piss, and God
only knows what else. While having dinner that evening my Mum said she was going
to the Movies the next day to which I choked on my food and had to leave the
room sharpish. Oh what magic memories, thank's Elvis & James Bond, innit.

Fritz.
