James C alerted Geeklawyer to a story of the Israelis nearly shooting down Blair when he was being flown by private jet to a conference.
Normally those damned Israelis throw missiles about with all the gay abandon of a drunken Olympic confetti throwing team, who have a large supply of explosive tipped confetti and a burning desire to do really well in 2012.
But whereas when the Palestinians are involved usually lots of innocent women and kids get killed, in Blair’s case they chose that one time to exercise restraint. What could have been more delicious and ironic than to see the evil slimebag killed by the people he sucked up to nearly as much as he did to the US?
Mind you, even if they had fired a missile the chance are it would slipped off Teflon Tony and made its way to the UK and hit ‘Mr Unlucky’ Brown.
I have this image of Tony Blair, aboard his private jet, reciting a poem by Gerald Manley Hopkins….
GLORY be to God for dappled things—
For skies of couple-colour as a brinded cow;
For rose-moles all in stipple upon trout that swim;
Fresh-firecoal chestnut-falls; finches’ wings;
Landscape plotted and pieced—fold, fallow, and plough;
and what the fuck are those two Israeli fighters doing out there…
It never happened, of course…. save in my mind.
I wish you the best, as always, for the Bank Holiday Weekend… I am off to Windsor to take some photographs of the Royals for my magazine…. Apparently, the Royals have got into it after ‘Allo ‘Allo magazine covered the wedding last week.
[…] I am, of course, free to focus attention here on the more bizarre offerings of the blawgers… Geeklawyer picks up on the Israeli Airforce being scrambled to intercept Tony Blair’s private jet as it […]
Now this comment has nothing to do with Geeky (my love), Israel or any other comment made. It’s just my own random fire that I choose to place here:
Law students are a bunch of ungrateful self serving bastards who are incapable of congratulating others on their achievements. They should all be burned (except me and a few others at my discretion). A propose an international law student cull - we could set them free in a paddock outback and shoot them like we do kangaroos and horses, from a helicopter with a nice big gun.
I propose death and I propose I be part of both victim selection and the merciless shooting process.
Ideas re other forms of inhuman slaughter much appreciated.
I propose we substitute aborigines instead of law students. Apart from that it’s a good idea.
What’s wrong juxta? Have you, too encountered law students with the intellectual capacity, wit and sophistication of a Hamster ( this statement is, of course deeply insulting with regard to the hamster)
I do hope I’m not on the list to be put up against the wall and virtually shot….
My Dear Geek,
‘I propose we substitute aborigines instead of law students’-no one was suggesting that law students be substituted-the idea was to cull them.
I am also disappointed that my old friend Mr Avram Grant has engaged the services of Anthony Julius rather than your good self.
You’re fucking disappointed?!
You bore me with your trite writing.
I won’t be back.
OK, bye. Put the keys through my letterbox.
GL…. do you know andyouare?
What sort of person goes onto a blog,presumably wanders around to get the feel of it, then writes that he is bored with the blog and is off?
I am becoming increasingly puzzled. Where have all the piss artists gone?
I may have to drink a glass of two tonight…. and do some writing. Apparently the England football team is playing the USA. I assume the yanks are playing the english version of the game and won’t turn up wearing motorbike helmets and body armour?
I won’t be watching it…..
Dear Charon,
I now spend most of my life simply informing all the blogs and forums that I don’t read the reasons why I choose not to read them. I’m about to write a letter to Men’s Fitness magazine explaining that I haven’t read their magazine becuase I would rather get drunk then do press ups.
I’m not sure I understand why these are exclusive options? Surely a beer and 50 push ups to burn it off is the way to go? Liver damage and a 6-pack.
just to let you know your blog is trite and i am not reading it.
actually, on reflection, same goes for my comment thus i am not writing it.
