I was thinking there, you know, after that Monica Leech business, what other construction – apart from sipping his Coke – could be put on a newspaper article that said Monica was s…… his c… ?
Hmmm.
Maybe people would think that Monica was soaping his club.
Or sacking his cook.
Or soaking his cork.
Or seeking his coat.
Or sinking [...]

I see a headline on the front page of today’s Irish Times:
Women injecting cocaine have had legs amputated.
Now! You see? That’s the way to clamp down on crime. At long last, the government have started listening to me.
I look forward to mass amputations, varying from perhaps the removal of a fingertip for [...]

Jesus, I hate it when my dinner looks back at me.
I was at a barbecue recently where they roasted a whole sheep, and that would have been fine by me. It would have been just fine, except that, when I arrived at the oven with my paper plate and my vegetables and my plastic [...]

Tony Blair is going to be appointed Peace Envoy to the Middle East.
He’s going to represent something calling itself the Quartet of Mideast peace mediators: the USA, the EU, the UN and Russia.
Hold on a minute, I hear you shout. Are we talking about the same Tony Blair?
I don’t know.
Is this the [...]

Oh, you’re going to love this.
Do you know Damien Mulley, Irish blogging guru and All-Round Wonderful Person For Organising the Irish Blog Awards and Getting All of Us Drunk Repeatedly?
Anyway, it appears that Mulley travelled from somewhere to somewhere with Aer Lingus but the baggage-handling people, Sky Handling Partners, lost his bag.

Late-night flight through dark and brooding country. A ceaseless whisper of cicadas.
Dubious men in linen suits who smile too much and call you my very good friend.
A shipwreck. Something in the lagoon.
A doorway. Many doorways.
A church. A curse. An old priest.
A stone sarcophagus.
Many hills. A precipice. A monastery.
A [...]

The first truck made it through the crossing without trouble. Then the second. As we approached the checkpoint, the young border guard raised a flashlight to halt us. I cursed under my breath and gently felt for the Glock taped to the steering column.
Hoping he wouldn’t look too closely at the documents, [...]

Ok. Now listen up. I managed to escape the Monastery with Disparager.
Repeat: I have Disparager. I have taken him to The Island where he will be kept by our Associates for exactly 3 (say THREE) days. The search for us is very intense but I feel slightly more optimistic [...]

I have climbed to the mountain-top monastery on the road north from N and I am now hiding in a cavern beneath the High Altar.
Dear God, the sights I have seen in the last three days, I hope never to see again in my life. Such distortions. Such obscenities. It should all [...]
