The scene: It’s June 1944; deep in the Burmese jungle. fool is in the British army and is sat on a rock contemplating what the 14th Dalai Lama once said to him once in 1935, Nb* he never told him twice, ‘Every human should have the idea of taking care of the environment, of nature, of water.’ fool reflects with Mowgli, who’s playing hide n seek with Baloo…

 

Mowgli: Why you cleaning so many boots?

 

fool: I’ve got myself a janker.

 

Mowgli: Is that your boss?

fool: Argh, my child, a gunga din do many things, he make the flower grow, the fish breathe and these boots shine. He also make fine tea

 

Mowgli: Isn’t that a cha wallah?

 

fool: yes, my little brown friend, the punka wallah cannot exist without gunga din’s do’s, and the man sub, would not exist without the cha wallah, whish isn’t possible without gunga din, and most importantly if gunga din serves the punka wallah before the cha wallah, who is there to serve the man sub, then you’re in for a janker – The Dalai Lama told me that

Dr. Phil Ology’s word of the week:


“Words, don’t come easy to me, how can I find the way to make you love me, oh words, they don’t come easy…”

 

The word is we have no word, but we do have these…

 

Letters:

(volume 363) Sorry Fool - never one to pooh pooh fool's wisdom but not sure about this meaning of Kennedy. This suggests that JFK's German cousin was actually called Helmut Helmet Head. Very troi oi.

 

Response from the Dr, ‘ok - fyi - it wasn't helmemet - and it it means ugly bugger in Irishu it was wasn't helmut was helmEt and means ugly bugger in Irish.’ – Ed note: confused? Good! - ‘Irishu’!
 
Ed note: Mr. Very Troi oi also went onto quiz the… ‘Leg of lamb ??????’
(volume 364)– In reference to things found up people’s bottoms in the ‘News’ section; which we have since established not to be in disbelief but just one of astonishment; he concluded with: ‘My aunt used to live next door to a Mrs Upjohn. On the other side was a Mrs Goodwilly. Fact’ – Thank you very much Mr. Troi oi and a bag of boiled sweets are in the post to you.

 

Things that are really getting on my nose, up my goat and around my wick this week:

Gum – Although I’m not really that anti gum, but the way in which some folk choose to chew their gum. There’s the apt phrase, right there… ‘choose’, because that solitary act of establishing your free will is an extension of your personality. If you have in mind the A-typical spoilt American girl who slaps, chomps and churns her resin in such an annoying fashion that it’s an immediate character delvultion, then you’d be on the right track. However, mine’s not the High school gum gnawing sit-com sweetheart, who’ll soon end up a drug over-dosed whore in LA’s downtown ‘crack half mile’, but is instead the male equivalent, who also, won’t actually be brave enough to go the full yard in life as to actually pursue a dream, get hooked and fall off the social whirls that is life’s success ladder because he’s too in touch with his own nipple alignment and making sure the rest of the world knows it too. Just like the abortion I witnessed in a market the other day; tight blue jeans, Harley Davidson belt buckle, white vest - tucked in, red bandana and a square inch of gum whiter than his bluer than white teeth, which themselves formed the utmost self gratifying smirk this side of, I’m the biggest wanker in the world look. Argh, the sweet dreams of just belting him there and then in the market place would have made my own, yellowing, crooked and only moderately chipped teeth curl, but alas, I didn’t pursue my ‘dream’ and that’s probably why his gum actions are in this week’s rant. Not that all gumsters are tossers of course. Graeme Smith, South Africa’s cricket captain is a prolific tosser, but that’s not necessarily down to his avid gum action. Fact: American soldiers in WWI (when they eventually got there) were issued chewing gum to relieve stress and help with oral hygiene – stress, what stress, the stress of just getting there! By the time they’d arrived (late again) in WWII, their gum had been issued with caffeine to keep them awake, but I digress, it’s not what you do it’s the way that you do it. Gum chewing pricks - Bastards!

                                                             

Things that are just Sweet Love:

After a solid workout of digging up the garden there’s nothing more refreshing than coming in and swigging a nice slurp of roll mop juice; all those vinegars, the salts, the sugars, the onions…the fish!

This bit is the rugby bit:

 

We sow the seed, nature grows the seed…

 

Published 4.2.10

A mixed and somewhat depleted bag of nuts this week, in fact a mixed seed & nuts bag, as we wrap up some LV=Cup games, a couple Top14’s, a snip of Super 14’s then look forward to the weekend’s Six Nations.

 

LV=Cup:

Leicester twoddled past Bath 27-12 thanks to young lad Billy Twelvetrees’ (36) collected chip from Aaron Mauger to score and a second try from a deft left foot. Tuilaga also intercepted one to make it three/ Leeds went down at home to Saracens 5-18. Sarries were without 10 6N’s internationals but still had the likes of Justin Marshal, Ernst Joubert, Schalk Brits and Adam Powell. Leeds coach Neil Back conceded, “Saracens showed what a top Premiership Club they are.”/ Sale lost another at home, this time to Saints 14-20, 15 of those points were courtesy of Steve Myler/ Quins beat L. Irish 16-13, where Mike Catt, assistant coach, made an unlikely appearance aged 38, although two youngsters in Joseph and Smith provided the tries. Jim Staples and Frankie Croxford were unavailable/ Scarlets laid more misery on Wasps with an 18-13 win. Rhys Priestland knocked over six, Dave Walder missed four. Rhys sounds like he should be in a heavy metal band and Dave, a plasterer/ Gloucester put woe on Worcester 17-5/ And Dragons wooed even more woe on Ospreys 49-19

 

 

Heineken Cup: not necessary

 

Guinness Premiership: new barrel please

 

Top 14:

Albi succumbed to Toulouse’s might 6-24. Terrible conditions of wind and rain suited the bulkier Byron Kelleher’s Mediterranean’s as they stole three tries and a bonus point/ Perpignan ran in six against Bourgoin finishing 49-20/ And Bayonne clocked 15-0 against a very fickle Biarritz side this year.

 

 

Magners League: cider, in winter?

 

Some shorts:

 

On the exchange front, Sgt. Wilko is to stay on at Toulon for another year. Joining him is Sale’s captain Dean Scholfield, who will double his money in the move, due to France’s no salary caps. Carlos Spencer meanwhile, who is reputedly the costliest transfer in ‘Is-t-land’s’ history will play his first game for the Lions in their S14 warm-up against the Pumas. Alongside Carlos will be Lions vet Doppies La Grange – excellent – the silly name season is about to open. And he’s not a real lion vet!

 

To keep briefly with the Boks, and their Test against France on 12 June at Newlands, Cape Town is to go ahead despite everyone getting murdered down the road at the football World Cup. What team is left from the after shock will complete a Grand Slam tour in November: 6th Ireland/ 13th Wales/20th Scotland/27th England/4th Dec Baa Baa’s

 

Ali Williams has been ruled out of the S14’s with a wonky Achilles. And in some warm-up games the Reds beat Crusaders 20-12/ Tah’s beat Fiji Warriors 83-15 – 13 tries there!/ Stormers took the Sharks again 29-14/ and Bulls did the double over Lions 42-12

 

Now, the Six Nations are upon us and all the bookies are mad for top seeds Ireland and France, with Wales hot on their toes. Here’s what fool says for this week:

 

Ireland v Italy Croke Park (14:30 GMT) – Ireland will smash them. The Italians keep harping on that there is life after Parrisse, but let’s face there isn’t much. Ireland are on song. It’s a shame Sexton got himself injured, but O’Gara’s not bad I suppose. Their biggest disappointment must be Ulsterman Stephen Ferris’ injury – he was to be fool’s man of the Tournament – he may still be yet! McLean will be the danger man in the Italians backs, but then the Italian backs will not see the ball. Ireland 35-3 Italy

 

England v Wales Twickenham (17:00 GMT) – Neither of these sides performed in the Autumn Tests, but if you had to give a sniff of hope, you’d look to England, yes, I said England. Wales are by far the better, most accomplished, more experienced team. They have as Phil Vickery says, ‘probably the best front row in the world’ aka Adam Jones, Mathew Rees, Gethin Jenkins. They have Jamie Roberts, Lee Byrne and James Hook for Chrissake! However, England’s pack will win ball. Their backs are sharp, and Flutey and Tait will cause problems. At Twickenham fool, as ever, will stick his Gregory out and opt for England 23-20 (late Nb* - Rees is out Williams is in – they’ve got to get some new names over there.)

 

Scotland v France Murrayfield (15:00 GMT) – France are fucking dynamite right now, but guess what…they’re going to lose against a roaring Scottish swab. Don’t underestimate this Scottish side. The only thing this Scottish side are missing a few more boys on the bench and an extra ten minutes of puff. The French are without Chabal, Maxime Mermoz, Fabien Barcella, Damien Traille and Julien Dupey, but then they have plenty of others and the master key - Dusotoir! Let Beattie keep him busy whilst the Evan brothers run rings outside. Ok, you’d need your head examining to plum for Scotland, but what the fuck: Scotland 16 - 10

 

Some competitions now:

 

WIN a PRIZE!

 

John Smit’s XV; films where the villain is played by a Brit is done, long live John Smit’s XV of famous people who have a famous relative in sport – can be the same sport or a completely different one. Can be an actor in the John Smit XV, but he has to be relevant to that position, i.e. Elvis at flyhalf – sharp, nimble, play/decision maker, good hip swerve (he had a brother, but died at birth!). Can be an actress, author, sportsman etc…

 

Send ‘em in, you win a prize; if you have 8 or more pairings the same as fool, you win a special prize.

 

If you’re wondering why it’s John Smit’s XV, it’s because he’s the current World Cup winning captain, so we’ve got another year and half of him yet!

end rugby here!

 

Ok, a willow the wisp of cricket now:

 

No cricket, nope, none, not even a thribble, apart from this…

 

Freddie out of place in the ‘New England’ changing room? Balderdash. That’s the talk surrounding some of the rumours of a comeback to the Test arena. He’s going on tour with Lancashire and everyone thinks he’ll itching at the stump to get back in with the young lads iPod club.

 

But talk to Freddie and you’ll notice he’s got nothing on his mind but racking up a few catchy one liners for the press, hence; “If you spoke to Botham, he’d love to play Test cricket tomorrow. However, I’ve retired.” – I didn’t know that, did you know that – Beefy getting his boots back on? I shook his hand once, outside the toilets at Kingsmead. There was no one else around, and I mean no one. I shouted out ‘Hey Beefy’ as I stepped out, and he replied ‘alright mate’ and I can’t remember if he shook my hand or I shook his, but like me he’ll remember that for the rest of his life.

 

Dale Steyn on the other hand, wasn’t. But he did mention something to the fact that England is not a cockroach, then spoke in some kind of sporting code that grid-iron Indianapolis Colts defensive co-ordinator reiterates later on in ‘Other Sports’Dale talks of KP and Levi’s blood line; “If a batting line-up is like a body, then those two are the head. You look to cut off the blood supply to that head and the rest will topple under pressure.” – Freaky South African.

 

Meanwhile Allan Donald, who looks like another bloke down the pub, is pondering taking the England bowling coach’s job as recently vacated by Windies new boss Ottis Gibson. Others in the frame are Darren Gough, Phil DeFreitas, Steve Watkins, Kevin Shine, Shaun Pollock and some bloke called Ian Pont.

 

Till next week…

 

In the meantime catch this if you’re there!

 

Other Sports:

 

Murray cried tears of joy for the world’s greatest tennis player in Roger Federer, with a little emotion mixed in for himself too. He rocked on about how great the tournament was then proverbially patted him on the arse and quipped, “I can cry like Roger, it’s a shame I can’t play like him.” – I’ll tell you what’s a shame, all this namby-pamby crying business in sport; you didn’t see Henry Cooper doing it. Harden the fuck up.

 

Greg Williams on Peyton Manning, “You kill the head and the body will die. That’s usually how it goes. You hit the quarterback and the whole team feels it.” – It’s Superbowl on Sunday – New Orleans Saints play Indianapolis Colts… ‘1500 men went in the water that day…’ – there’s 106 players involved – is that sport! Win lose or draw, Peyton will earn £100+ next year! And Greg and Dale talk in code.

 

Now, is this sport – Roy Jones Jnr 41 – some parents just don’t think it through do they. Anyway, Jnr is going to fight Bernard Hopkins 45 in April. Bernard wants his own back after Jnr beat him up in ’93. Roy says, “We’re giving the public what they want.”

 

Some boxers just don’t get it do they. Now even Ricky Hatton’s trainer Lee Beard has left him and gone to America to train Joan Guzuan. Hang ‘em up Ricky or you’ll end up like this:

 

And now let’s hear it for the news: Bong, bong, bong:

 

Ok, lets see; Tescos are getting snooty about their clientele’s dress-wear and have banned pyjamas on the grounds they are too casual as opposed to jogging bottoms which are just casual. This of course has been going on for years in places like Nam where the old jymmies have been in vogue since 19 O’Chocolate.  I had a Canadian friend who’d run around the shops in them – very chic.

 

Of course not all women wear pyjamas – phoarrr – some prefer just to get arrested. In fact women’s arrests have doubled in UK, with an 88,139 increase on violence charges, 13,690 on drug offences and 8,308 on fraud and forgery – up 500 on last year. Still, theft is down by 3000 to 77,425. But is it equality, is it!

 

Violent shopping

A couple shared their house with a vase worth £500k for 50 years and never knew its value. The 18.5inch tall vessel was commissioned by Emperor Qian Long back in 1740, and was thought to have once belonged to Florence Nightingale – that’s her picture listening to crazy fool’s Radio Show you know. (New one coming soon!). Anyway, I’d like you to listen to what Mr Schwinge from Dukes’ antics house said of it; “The vase balances elegance or form, outstanding decoration, and technical prowess, which are all characteristics of the great period of innovation in porcelain manufacture under the legendary kiln supervisor, Tang Ying.” – Well, of course it was.

 

Legendary

 

Other items worth a few bob were Mohammad Ali’s boxing gloves that were recently stolen from a memorabilia shop in Basildon, Essex UK. The 20 pairs had a price tag of £17k. A half smoked cigar which belonged to Churchill fetched £4,5k in auction. His valet scooped it up after a cabinet meeting in 1941 – quick, save this copy, it’ll be worth six times as much in 69 years, as it is now, and it’s free.

 

Margaret Thatcher ate up to 28 eggs a week in the run up to her 1979 election. Go to work on an egg the Tories said, I tried it but it’s freezing in winter. Paul Mason from Ipswich also tried it and he lost 20st. He was the world’s fattest man. 20st lighter and now only 49st; he’s till the world’s fattest man. He used to be a postman, how do you get that fat being a postman.

 

Crazy rock n roll capes No. XXXXXIIIIVVIVI! ‘This is the song, the bucket of water song, we can’t go wrong…’ Tiswas – best kids programme ever. Sally James we salute you.

 

JD Salinger has died aged 91. The author of Catcher in the Rye was pretty much a recluse but is believed to have another 15 works in the cupboard at home. He once said, “I love to write, but I write for myself, for pleasure.” – Not any more mate. There, got through it without mentioning Lennon or Chapman once… bugger!

 

Peter Kay cornervery Cooper-esque, except this is a Peter Cook quote, which is a cross between the Kay and Cooper bit but without the k! – Wrong, all wrong, we’re going back to 2005 and a slice of vocabulary: Seagul manager: A manager, who flies in, makes a lot of noise, craps on everything and then leaves.

 

Rip Torn 78, the old movie star from Men in Black broke into a bank this week thinking he was at home in Salisbury Connecticut USA. He was obviously pissed, but Rip Torn… real name?

 

The 24th Annual ‘Tough Guy’ event was held in Perton Staffordshire UK last week. That’s the one where a bunch of mad bastards wade through freezing mud, lakes and barbed wire. It’s February in the UK, that’s cold. 4,600 completed the 8 mile course with 600 having to drop out. Poofs. One of the organisers said, “It’s the most dangerous taste of mental and physical pain.” – Has he seen Celene Dion

 

Just going back to that Tescos story, fool reckons it will backfire on them because all the rage these days is to wear less, or your insides outside. Selfridges ‘sheer bodies’, lingerie and nude nipple covers are up 20%. Yes, that’s right; chicks are wearing their lingerie as their glad-rags! Helen Attourd, head buyer for Selfridges said, “Today ‘if you’ve got it flaunt it’ generation is proving that there is nothing like a peak of expensive lingerie to make a woman feel good.” – They buy heads!

 

I’m no prude, but this would just look silly down the pub – wouldn’t it?

 

Ok, Aussie, Grant Burton from Melbourne got free European train tickets for his parents by having Eurail’s logo and website tattooed on his back. If anyone gets crazy fool’s newsround and web tattooed on their forehead you can have free subscription and shepherd’s pie for life! The oldest European goes by the name of Stanley, lives in Bude, Cornwall UK and is 110 – his secret, “Lots of outdoor living and good country food.” – get ‘em while they’re hot, they’re lovely.

 

Cheers!
