Talking to a friend of mine, a sub-editor, in a bar. He hasn't slept for 48 hours, and he didn't get busted either, which he regards as a major achievement.
"They say there's freedom of religion in this country. Bullshit! I'm a Tibetan Buddhist! I want my body to be laid out on a rock where the leopards and the rats can eat it! But will they let me? No!!" -- I say, "And the buzzards." "And the buzzards," he agrees. (not strictly overheard, more underheard). --------------------------- it's all downhill from here and there will be no safety zone |

LOL! *wondering where you overheard that* It is sort of true. I mean, about the chaos. ________ Bob the Builder kicked Joe the Plumber in the ass. Because he could. Duh. |

Me returning a shirt to a store with my girlfriend. The clerk and my gf are both black girls.
Me - I'd like to return this shirt. Clerk - No problem. GF - You are standing on the wrong side of the counter. Go around to the front. Me- I don't think she really minds. (I relocate to the front of the register anyway) Girlfriend- Anyway, the only black girl you need to be behind is me. At which point I think I turned bright red and the clerk starting giggling. -- |

Sitting in a 24-hour restaurant today ... strange place, they have signed photos of Tim Robbins and The Edge and other such passers-by.
Today, obviously a famous South African football star, only I don't recognise him because I never watch local soccer. He's regaling two other guys with stories about the press. "They always ask the same questions ... it's like the journalism school textbook ... what's your secret, what was your downfall, what are your plans ... ja, like I'm planning to lose ... "I only ever saw one article I liked. I've got it here. The headline was 'Don't watch this movie'." --------------------------- it's all downhill from here and there will be no safety zone |

"The Who's on first". "???"  ----------------------------- "It may be said with rough accuracy that there are three stages in the life of a strong people. First, it is a small power, and fights small powers. Then it is a great power, and fights great powers. Then it is a great power, and fights small powers, but pretends that they are great powers, in order to rekindle the ashes of its ancient emotion and vanity. After that, the next step is to become a small power itself." --GK Chesterton, "Heretics" |
