We've been thinking of having a child recently. Or rather, she's been thinking of having one and I've been thinking of making one. Anyway, reading up on the subject, it turns out they can, if not managed correctly, cause quite a lot of extra work. So here's some of the top tips i've picked up in my extensive research:

1. Comfort Blankets: If you can't separate the child from the comfort blanket by peaceful means, in a quiet moment when no-one's looking, take it to the kitchen and burn it. Just singe its fingers, it'll soon learn.

2. Dummies: To suck or not to suck. Plan for the future with this simple formula here:- girl = good, boy = bad. He'll thank you for it in later life when he successfully gets through his 'curious' phase. She'll be thankful for the practice when she gets to high school. Her boyfriends will thank you

3. Circumcision: This one's the other way round: girl = bad, boy = good. they'll both thank you for it, the girl because that's frigging obvious (ahem). the boy because, though he may think he's missing something, he will at least not have a twisted wiry filament with a turnip for a father and a nicknack for a mother when he's growing up and comparing things at the urinals.

4. Temper Tantrums: The first time the little one puts up a fight and demands something they want - doesnt matter what it is or where you are - just get up and leave. If they follow, they've learnt. If they don't, what are you really losing?

5. Schooling: No child seriously wants to go to school, so my advice is to make home life so intolerable that they seek refuge in education. As soon as they learn that lesson, ease up on the home life so they get to enjoy both and have a happy childhood.

6. Child Abuse: Probably don't.

i might have another go at explaining just what happened when i got up on stage, and what got me there in the first place. but right now im preoccupied with Saul Williams last night who rocked this tiny venue and blew everyone away with the most poetic rap and the most rapturous poetry (taken from the Book of Common Cliches: Music Journalism Edition), followed by Patrick Forge at another tiny club (and free!) who blew us all to bits - i was stepping over frugging limbs and juddering, er, more limbs on the dancefloor all night. Special credit to the two just possibly drunk ladies who approached me outside for a light and 30 seconds later, magically pressed up against me asked "go on, which one do you want? which one? me or her? me or her? or do you want both? come on, tell us, tell us"

- oh my, would you just look at the time?!
|

erm...i done standup. i was good. it wasnt like last year (and i hadnt done any stand-up since). nor is the writing. partly cos ive forgotten how to tell a story and partly because there is no story. but i showed up. went on. everybody laughed. at everything. nine minutes later i walked off. a thoroughly different, happier person. thanks be to the believers (all you kind people) and scorn be dumped upon the doubters (er...just me).

The next person who jokily says they could tell me but they'd have to kill me, i will kill.

An amazing sight today, just outside the Israeli Embassy where there are regular protests against their brutal policies in the Occupied Territories...

absolutely nothing.

Where are the protestors rallying round to applaud the Israeli Government for what they've done? Surely they'd be there, celebrating and making friends, no? You can't just protest at something and when you get your way skulk off. You have to go back and make up now.

Youth gather for 'Catholic Woodstock'
Christian Science Monitor - 1 hour ago
Hundreds of thousands descend on Cologne in big test for the new pope's ability to rally youth...



I think we're all hoping the organisation behind this have to issue a warning press release along the lines of "do not, repeat DO NOT take the brown eucharist"

[nutgroist] halloi
[nutgroist] come on
[nutgroist] answer me god confound you!

[nutgroist] i'm you and...
[nutgroist] i want you to believe me/you
(0:20) [friarcouscous] i'm not god, and nor is God
[nutgroist] little known spiritual secret - God prays to us
[nutgroist] no, sorry, God prays ON us
(0:21) [friarcouscous] God does exist, but we're now cleverer than Him. That's why he invented us - cos he couldn't work out Science.
[nutgroist] i tell you what, pal - in light of all that all-seeing, all-knowing, all-powerful stuff - i'd say the Devil's a plucky fellow
(0:23) [friarcouscous] Yeah, but he slept and murdered his way to the top (bottom).
[nutgroist] he's got a snowball's chance in hell, no, a fireball's chance in heaven of winning THAT eternal battle
[nutgroist] the devil slept his way to the top? with who exactly?
[nutgroist] mrs devil?
[nutgroist] mrs the devil?
[nutgroist] the angel gaybriel
(0:24) [friarcouscous] Why did goats become associated with the Devil? So many more likely candidates in the animal kingdom.
[nutgroist] you ever fucked a goat?
[nutgroist] it's TOTALLY WICKED
(0:25) [friarcouscous] I've goaded a fuck.
[nutgroist] you ever tried to do anything ritualistic with an evil serpent?

Taxi, fri night, 2 big french guys and I going back to mine for a little smoke and drinky. One of them turns to me and says something, in his thick french accent, mildly dismissive of France, in the way that is acceptable for a native but would be considered rude if it were a foreigner's opinion of his country. Mr Taxi Driver* pops up

'Oi tell yer what, oi don trost d fockin franch, deyll slit yer troat d minute yer torn yer back, y'know?'

We three look at eachother in one of those classic 'Did he just say what i thought he said?' moments and, afraid that my compadres will simultaneously teach him a lesson and prove him right, I say very quickly 'well if you hate them so much you'd better get us home quick because two out of three of us ARE French'

and he says

"Franch? Oh FRANCH! Oh yeah, oi luv d franch. Great fellas d franch. Charles de Gaulle, my koind o' man, sure. Best food in d world, best looking gorls, oi'd say. Beautiful language...er..Where'd we be without d franch?"

then it's deja vu and not for the first time as we three look again at eachother and wonder consider this stunning volte-face. And then it's time to get out so my french friends pay the fare and tip him big, just because.



*it is my experience that dublin taxi drivers, much as i respect them more than london ones, have no ear for accents and will always ask 'where are yous from then?' even if you step in the taxi dressed as Napoleon whilst cooking garlic and onions, humming The Marseillaise and contemplating 'working with' the Germans

Quick question, no funny, i've just been wondering about:

Have anything illegal ever been committed in space? And under who's jurisdiction does that rest?
|

In Italy, St John gets a whole functionally sovereign territory,
in Spain, he gets a beautiful medieval city,
in France he gets a lovely little scallop,
and in England, they give him a wort

NB: To swallow this, it will be useful to accept the not-a-factual claim that no-one makes that St John and St James are the same holy bloke and not, rather famously, brothers. Thanks.

The first in a series of wilfully offense 'jokes' you won't be hearing anywhere else anytime soon:

Q. What's the difference between a bag of Tesco's Tuna Salad and your Mum's cunt?

A. The salad is Washed and Ready to Eat

Some of the old folk phrases learned from my grand greatparents who came from some obscure country between Greece and Turkey:


When the pine tree cries for joy, the forest laughs in pain

A fig is like a woman, but also like a fig

When the boats go out, shepherds' doubt. When the boats come in, shepherds win

Pigs can swim. There is a God.

A hard penis doesn't wank itself

Uncle's milk is sour but the bottle is smooth as bone

Desire enters the body through many routes but it can only leave through one small hole

If god had intended women to enjoy sex, he wouldn't have given men cocks

Trying to stop an anteater eating ants is like selling black men to africa

A man with big hands makes a good husband, but be sure he hasn't got dicks for fingers

You will never make love with a beautiful woman. You will only make love TO her.

School is for teachers, not for children

Telling a woman to stop spending your gambling money is like trying to rape your own cow: Impossible, because they always enjoy it

Never eat a black man with your fingers

He’d kiss the devil to fuck a god
