Had a spluttering laugh out loud moment when I heard the following on the above show:
"know what they say about a man that likes a bit of chrome in his kitchen?"
"No, what do they say?"
"He likes a cock up his arse!"

the friday five

When was the last time you...

1. ...went to the doctor? Years ago, though I do occasionally see a nurse for various minor matters.

2. ...went to the dentist? 6 months ago, just had a reminder letter.

3. ...filled your gas tank? Never - I don't drive.

4. ...got enough sleep? Months and months ago. I have a 20 month old child and run my own business. There is no such thing as sleep... zzzz

5. ...backed up your computer? I don't do full back ups, but I back up all important stuff (documents) every month.

the friday five
1. Are you superstitious?
No more so than most people. I don't believe in superstition, but sometimes better safe than sorry!

2. What extremes have you heard of someone going to in the name of superstition?
Having to walk back to a particular lamp post in a previous street to walk around it because of some stupidness or other. Also someone I know of, if they see an odd number at the end of the time (the unit of seconds) in a football (soccer) game on telly, they have to keep looking at the number until the tens of seconds is even.

3. Believer or not, what's your favorite superstition?
Don't walk under ladders, or touching wood for luck.

4. Do you believe in luck? If yes, do you have a lucky number/article of clothing/ritual?
Yes I believe in luck - but you make your own, see >Richard Wiseman - The Luck Factor
I have various 'lucky numbers' in that they will be ones I'd select in a lottery, game of chance, but I realise that they have no special power, other than being ones I normally do, and therefore in time they will win something.

I often have small ritualistic type things about Fulham, I'll look at a certain shop on my way to a football game, nearly always buy extra strong mints to chew during the match and I'll wear my darkest pants & socks on home game days. I don't blame myself for not doing them if we lose, I just can't help myself!

5. Do you believe in astrology? Why or why not?
No. It's a girls thing. ;)

the friday five
1. What's the most daring thing you've ever done?
Jumped from roof of one building to another. I was far too drunk and when I saw them the next day almost shat myself.

2. What one thing would you like to try that your mother/friend/significant other would never approve of?
Oh all the usual things - bunjee jumping, parachute, hand gliding, feeding sharks, deep water diving...

3. On a scale of 1-10, what's your risk factor? (1=never take risks, 10=it's a lifestyle)
midways, five or six.

4. What's the best thing that's ever happened to you as a result of being bold/risky?
Oh, I've no idea, have a giggle for while with a thrilling thing, or just get nice and peaceful with the diving.

5. ... and what's the worst?
As a kid I broke an arm coming off a high slide, also careered into a wooden garage door another time when cycling as fast as possible down the street. I ended up with a load of wood in my arm, which needed and operation and I still used to have splinters of wood come to the surface and need cutting out for months afterwards.

Fulham / Everton racism row.

As you (if you're a FFC/EFC fan) may know there's an issue at the moment with Luis Boa Morte (FFC) and Duncan Ferguson (EFC) with DF calling LBM a black cunt. BBC SPORT | Football | Fulham make 'racism' complaint

It doesn't surprise me, a few weeks ago at Loftus road, in the league game their own supporters were being racist towards one of their own players.

After our recent win in the FC Cup BBC SPORT | Football | FA Cup | Fulham 2-1 Everton (aet) I found this page:
www.efc-online.net/season/viewreport.php?matchid=138

So these guys with "Jap Cunt" and "French cunt" and with vindictive such as Nyarko - "Burn him" aren't exactly a bastion of the modern football fan.

So, is it okay to be racist when the player isn't black? I don't think so. Would they have said Burn him about a white player? I doubt it. They sicken me.
