Anything you want - you got it!
M's brother, D, is the type of guy who "knows a guy". Guys who can "procure" things, guys who can "fix" things - he knows a lot of guys. If I was looking for a doctor who would remove a bullet without asking questions, he'd be my first port of call.
While sitting in her kitchen last week I noticed the new, futuristic looking washer/drier gleaming proudly under her counter top.
With funky buttons and a digital display it looked like the type of contraption that, with a few minor tweaks, could be modified to offer time travel capabilities.
"Very fancy!" I said nodding in the direction of the clothes washing, time-space continuum altering contraption.
"Yeah" she replied, "€200".
"Impressive! Where did you get it?"
"Fell off the back of a lorry" she answered, matter-of-factly.
"D got it for you?"
"No. It actually fell off the back of a lorry. When it was being delivered. It left a dent in the side. The people who ordered it didn't want it so D.I.D were selling it at a much reduced price"
Note to self: Mustn't jump to conclusions.

Bodyrock
I went to see the Bodies Exhibition at the weekend.
Twice!
If Interpol have a "Suspected Necrophiliacs List" there is now a good chance my name appears on it.
I couldn't help noticing how tasty we look - like enormous boiled hunks of ham!
Perhaps I should be on their "Potential Cannibals" list instead.

Alright! Alright! Everything's gonna be alright!
From today's Irish times...
Ireland "has a thriving economy", and it would be wrong to compare the country's economic situation with that of Iceland's, Minister for Finance Brian Lenihan has said.
Phew! For a second there, I thought we were in the shit!

The Friday Album Cover #29
Another easy one - if you are an Irish child of the 80s. Can you recall the album name without Google's help though?
This is a personal indulgence. It's an album cover I've wanted to do for a long time - but I'd never been able to find a picture of the cover.
