Here's one I made earlier... a lot earlier

Look, I know news gathering budgets are tight, but Jesus... try to keep up guys.

From "The Scotsman", 11th March 2009:"They've got it licked at last - painting The Forth Bridge to end in 2011."

And from "The Jaggy Thistle", February 2008:

Disgraceful.

There's no other word to describe this piece of smut recommended by Thunder Bay Pete.

"Thunder Bay Pete": that makes him sound like someone being hunted by The Mounties.

And so he should be.  Like I said, disgraceful.

"and another thing" : Dens Dodger of Deceasement Drones Dementedly Despite Disbursing Drowsiness.

Oxygen thief and Dens boss Jocky Scott hit out at the ageism afflicting the Scottish game this week. 

Jocky, 61 or 71 or something, told The JT: "Too many good managers of my generation are being passed up in favour of young whippersnappers, striplings barely out of their forties. I didn't fight in two world wars. But if I had I would've have been very peeved to see how things have turned out. Erm. Where was I?"

Jocky, who this month won the prestigious the Wincarnis "Isn't He Marvellous For His Age?" gold commode, held the waiting media entranced as he recalled how much better things were in the old days:

"When I was a young manager trying to make my way in football, I was continually blocked by clubs insisting on bringing in older, more experienced managers. And, I'll tell you this, it didn't do me any harm apart from blocking my way in football management.  Erm, and another thing."

Jocky concluded the press conference by saying that the trouble with young people today was that no one took a blind bit of notice of anything he said. Or words to that effect. Definitely something along those lines.

Probably.

Inside: And if "deceasement" isn't a word, it should be, so beat it.

"The apple was enquiring about the amiable crocodile's friend." Be honest, you want one don't you?

Evidence, if evidence there be needed, of why The Onion is still the Daddy...
And, I'd lay money down that if this product existed, certain Mac-using JT readers would go out and buy it.

You know who you are....

What would Jack do?

With the Scottish Government cracking down on booze, it looks like we're all going to sober up. One wonders, are there any exemplars extant that we might draw comfort and inspiration from?

No, I'm afraid not.

But there is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OpeoT12RN6w
