I see from a report in the papers that a new Dáil chamber is being considered. It’s going to be a state-of-the-art facility with any amount of bells and whistles.
There’s going to be a Cone of Silence where deals can be agreed with religious orders and multinational oil companies.This will be very useful in [...]

I saw these reports today about two Leaving Cert students who were awarded 12,000 euros because they were discriminated against. The money was awarded by the Equality Tribunal when the students took a case against the Department of Education. Why? Well, it seems that both students are dyslexic and apparently the certificates [...]

More Beckett tonight.
How good are Impact for putting on this great stuff? Fair play to them!
Tonight we had No I, Footfall and Rockaway. Every one of them performed to the ultimate by these fine people who deserve nothing but praise, and to whom even I will not deliver disrespect. Well done, guys. [...]

Well, poor old Wrinkly Paddy, I’m afraid, is in an awful state. His toes are all black-purple, and his foot is as swollen as a priest in a playground. He didn’t go to the game in the end because he was afraid somebody might stand on his foot, and to be honest, if [...]

OK. I’m off to Dublin to stay the night with Wrinkly Paddy and to see the Australia game tomorrow at Lansdowne Road. Good. This promises to be a long night on the piss, especially as the Duck of Death is back from Norway for the match, and also staying chez Wrinkly Paddy.
It’s [...]

I apologise sincerely for [...]

We went to the Impact Theatre Company’s second outing last night and I have to tell you, guys, they were simply fuckin mighty.
They laid on three little plays for us, nothing longer than about 30 minutes, and every one was a cast-iron fucking up-your-arse classic.
Funny. Studied. Witty. Sexy.
They are Da Bizness.
These people are [...]

You might have seen this Bock rant a little while back concerning the deal made between our government and the RC religious orders whereby we, the taxpayers pay all but 127 million euros of compensation claims. This might seem like a lot of money for the religious orders to pay, until you realise that [...]

I just had to bring you this set that Jimmy the Wop sent.
A love story in four pictures.
