A MOMENT'S SILENCE

 ........ did he say a moment's silence or a minute's silence ?  I can't remember, God I hate these things  .. I need some really solemn respectful thoughts. We're remembering this woman .. you know .. whatsername .. it doesn't matter if I didn't know her. No man is an island; do not ask for whom the bell tolls, just google Ernest Hemingway .. what ? ... you'd think I could just concentrate on this person for just a  .. I wonder who gets to name cars, that'd be a good job. I could do that. A Toyota Hypochondria .. Would you actually be driving one, or would you just think you were? I'm going to open my eyes for a second. Hah. Caught you. You don't have to look embarrassed I mean  it's not a rule. Or is it ?  Why don't Volkswagen make a "Nuremberg". Best ever name for a rally car. I'm bad. I'm going to hell . There's no hell. Yes there is, and all they do all day is play back-to-back episodes of Junior MasterChef. And those f---ing Shane Warne f---ing hair clinic f---ing ads. I'm bad.  I mean this woman.... whats-her-name ... real person, someone's wife, someone's mother ... How come you never see any ugly teenage vampires ? Where are they all ? Oh shut the f---  up. And mate, yes you over there. Supposed to be a moment' silence. If that shirt was any louder we'd all have bleeding eardrums. Oh God I'm bad. I'm sorry God. If there is a God.  Dear God why is Richard Dawkins so angry ? Oh that's right you don't exist - dear Richard Dawkins, why is Richard Dawkins so angry ? I wonder what God looks like ?  Is he fat do you reckon ? I mean I suppose all that being omnipresent would burn a few calories but all the same ... I'm bad. Have I really got such a short attention span that ..  is it supposed to be exactly one minute ?  Is that enough ? Does anyone ever time this ? I mean this is out of control, I reckon it's been at least ten, fifteen minutes. No f--- it, next time I'm timing this. Sixty seconds exactly then I'm calling it:
"Time's up. They're done.Life goes on. Let's play Bingo" I'm so bad. Why can't I just concentr ... I reckon you should be able to change your height by deed poll. I want to be 6' 2".... Come on, how much longer. Really... If a tree falls in the forest & there's no-one to hear it, who'll call the council to chop it up & take it away so I can ride my mountain bike there. I'm sorry. Sorry God. Anyone. Everyone... I am absolutely definitely going into some total Zen meditative zone. NOW. FOR AGES.NO THINKING.NOTHING... Does your penis really get smaller as you get older ? What a bastard of an idea. Not fair. Everything else grows - ears, nose, hairs on the nose. Oi. God. Stop being omnipresent for a minute and get  over here. I've got  bone to pick with you.... Okay, I'm looking again. Not up this time. Just down and around. Maaaate. Those shoes. Are you training to be a cad or what ? Where's your dodgy little pork pie hat and tweed jacket with the weasel in the pocket ?

"Okay. Time's up. Life goes on. Let's play bingo"

 Dear God please tell me someone else said that

HOW TO NOT SHOOT TAYLOR SWIFT

Image
  SWIFT EXIT STITCH IN TIME FOR TAYLOR Narrow escape today for pop diva Taylor Swift after she cleverly avoided being in Kansas City for the giant piss-up occasioned by the KFC ( Kansas Fucking Chiefs ) winning a well-attended football game of some sort. It was the third year in a row the KFC had won and the fans seemed reasonably pleased. We understand Taylor Swift's boyfriend du jour is a valued member of the KFC  team and played an excellent game, causing the normally reserved Ms Swift to let out an excited squeal. We can neither confirm nor deny that Travis received the customary backseat of the limo passionate-but-chaste-embrace as the happy couple sped to the airport, sending her swiftly on her way to Australia where she will stage a number of wildly successful and very long concerts. Back to the carnage. Three shooters opened fire on the huge crowd, many of whom were not yet paralytically drunk All three were eventually quickly captured and arrested and advised of their righ

LEST WE FORGET © ANZAC 2019 ™ ®

Of course I fought at Gallipoli. I was only a fetus, so I had to lie about my age. And my height. I had to lie about a lot of things. I hated the taste of beer and I didn't know the words to Waltzing Matilda, but I was buggered if I was going to let that stand in the way of dying for my country. Or someone else's country. War isn't supposed to make sense. They say the first casualty of war is truth. In my case the first casualty of war was a Louis Vuitton trunk containing my best dinner suit, three ounces of Turkish opium, and a particularly fine collection of Persian erotica. Sunk without trace after a luggage tender capsized at Alexandria. A tragedy. I was on my way to Paris to cover the war as a freelance correspondent and I had no idea of the horrors I was to face. Without a decent dinner jacket. You people have no idea. Gallipoli. It was hell. When I say I fought at Gallipoli, I really mean I saw action at Gallipoli. Well, I mean I saw some photos of the plac

HOW TO GIVE UP SMOKING

Image
      First, have a cigarette. It's probably best to wake up first, but I have been known to have a cigarette immediately before awakening or even before. Now dig out those barely-out-of-date nicotine patches you bought three years ago after chain smoking three packs of Marlboro Red at a party in Rehab. Apply liberally to the chest and upper arm areas. I know it says only one, but what sort of a wimp are you ? Go hard or go home. And check out the Krusty the Clown instructional video on YouTube. He recommends 15 - 20 at a time, at least until your body gets used to it. Now, by this time the patches will have kicked in, flooding your bloodstream with nicotine, fear, and anxiety. You may feel the need for a cigarette at this stage. I know I do, but I promised myself I wouldn't have one until I'd finished this blog. You could be in luck - this night be a short piece. Anyway, after that cigarette, don't have any more. Simple.
