EMAIL JOKE

I want to live my next life backwards.

You start out dead and get that out of the way.

Then you wake up in an old age home feeling better
every day.

You get kicked out for being too healthy; go collect
your pension, then, when you start work, you get a
gold watch on your first day.

You work 40 years until you're young enough to enjoy
your retirement.

You drink alcohol, you party, you're generally
promiscuous and you get ready for High School.

You go to primary school, you become a kid, you play,
you have no responsibilities, you become a baby, and
then...

You spend your last 9 months floating peacefully in
luxury, in spa-like conditions; central heating, room
service on tap, larger quarters every day,
and then... you finish off as an orgasm.

I rest my case

HOSK COMMENT

of course you do end up diving from your mums fanny into your dads penis whilst they are having sex backwards

PUB DOODLE

one fat hen also known as one red hen

what? you mean you have never played a game of one fat hen, well you are in for treat, if you can understand and memorize this lot of course

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_fat_hen

Gameplay

The normal mode of play is that the leader recites the first line of the game and then all the players take it in turns to First - Sip the drink; Second - repeat the line; and Third - take another sip; if anyone makes a mistake, he or she must take a drink (or pay a forfeit) and ask the Leader to repeat. They then repeat the turn (Sip-Repeat-Sip). When everyone has got it right, the leader starts again, and adds the second line. Each player must now say the first and second lines, and so on, like this:

Leader - *sip* One fat hen! *sip*

Player 1 - *sip* One fat hen! *sip*

Player 2 - *sip* One hat fen!(takes a drink, and must repeat the line) *sip* One fat hen! *sip*

Player 3 - *sip* One fat hen! *sip*

Leader - *sip* One fat hen, couple duck *sip*

Player 1 - *sip* One fat hen, couple duck *sip*

Player 2 - *sip* One fat hen, two ducks(takes another drink, and starts again)

Player 3 - *sip* One fat hen, couple duck *sip*

and so on, with increasing mirth.

WHEN I WAS YOUNG AND WE DIDN'T HAVE PLAYSTATION 3's

Someone sent round this story this week - http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/lincolnshire/6331195.stm and it prompted a Cheddar telling us how it really goes down with the fruit picking crowd. First it starts off with a game of pylon in the back of a van.

I did the packing/fruit picking work at 14 during the summer

It was a laugh as I went with friends but the conditions were awful looking back at it

They used to come pick us up in vans at 4/5 in the morning and I remember it being quite spacious in the back until suddenly another 20 25 people packed themselves in. there used to be around 40/50 squashed in the back of the van. Crazy!

You would work 15 hours a day (includes 12 hour work plus journey to and from evesham)

It was a while before I moved onto a salary (£3 an hour), at first it was peace work.. the more tails off the spring onions u cut the more money you get. I remember I had to cut around 100 in a box and I would get 50p. The box would take half hour

I eventually got promoted to label maker and I was allowed to drive the forklift.

FOOTBALL CORNER

along with some choice quotes................
----- "Funny as f*ck! Spurs will never change! Lampard gives it all when he knows he has his back up! Spurs should have won. Whats that fan gonna say to his kids "I got banned for life for missing a fat cnut just standing there" ---- "if i had the chance id beat the fck out of lampard hes an absolute c0ck and deserves a beating" --- "to all you fucking mugs that say were w@nkers, big of you on here cos you fcking retards wouldnt ever try to prove it in the tottenham high road cos you fcking know what would happen, so shhhhhh talk is cheap gooners meet in clapton before a semi with us the soviets meet in liverpool st before a quater with us were a north london team so why not come to our manor what fcking mugs that lot really are pikeys dont even show no more"

to quote Dunny

Also I don't think McLaren is quite as bad as Taylor...yet - at least not in terms of selections. If you remember Taylor's experimental phase in summer '93 when, having discarded Lineker and Beardsley he picked folks like Carlton Palmer, Tony Daley and Andy Sinton and adopted his Watford-circa-1981 tactics: long ball & 4-2-4. In the circumstances it wouldn't have been a shock if he'd called up Ian Ormondroyd, or sent the team out onto the field on space hoppers.

and if you think the England team are bad at the moment, lucky this man isn't in charge any more

The game must have been bloody tedious, because I can scarcely remember any of it and I wasn't that drunk.

At least there was some half-time entertainment where I was, in the form of a pissed-up South American lass having a row with her English boyfriend, calling him a shit and a bastard and then giving him a slap and storming off. She came back in a couple of minutes later and hung around at the bar until the enormously fat bar owner (with the biggest pair of trousers I've seen since 1990 when I once sighted Robbie Coltrane) manhandled her out of the door, ignoring her protests of "fuck you" and "I dial 999". She did indeed dial 999 and about an hour later some copper came in to have a quiet word with the large-trousered gentleman.

Anyway, what happened in the football game again?

TRUE STORY ZONE

Talking of vibrators under the bed...

that might sounds an unusual start to an email but its true because Mr C sent us this http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_2261787.html?menu= where it goes on about what people have found under the bed.

anyway back on with the story

Several years ago a mate of mine and his flatmates hosted a fancy-dress party, with the theme of s£xual fetishes. Naturally he equipped himself with a massive black strap-on cock to front his outfit.

A year or so later he was unpacking boxes, having just moved flat, with the help of his folks. He got a surprise to unpack said strap-on cock which he had dumped under his bed after the party and long since forgotten about. Seems his mother - his devoutly Catholic, church-going mother - must have packed it as she was tidying his room. Not a word has been said about it by her from that day to this.

Remarkably, the best man at his wedding passed up the opportunity to include this in his speech. This was despite the fact that when the best man/groom roles had been the other way round, a few months previously, friend a (strap-on man) had taken great relish in recounting the story of how, following that same fetish party, friend b (his future best man) had been caught by police, attemping to break into his own flat, wearing a pair of tight, black PVC shorts and a T-shirt that read "Every good boy deserves a spanking".

HOSK INVESTIGATES

Phrase: Money for old Rope
Origin of Phrase: (summarised from a discovery channel prog)
hangmen were usually just other crims or homeless dudes as no-one was really fond of putting someone to death, so it was a hard role to fill.
Until William Marwood stepped up to the plate. He ran a bootmakers shop but got into the science of hanging and invesigated all sorts of different techniques, lengths of drop and tested gallows and things with bags of sand weighing the same as men.
After a few years or so, he unsurprisingly got depressed with executing people and semi-retired.

In Marwood's time there was a popular rhyme which went:

If Pa killed Ma

Who'd kill Pa?

Marwood.

So when Marwood retired James Berry jumped at the chance for this, now, prestigious job.
All went well for the first few months/years of his stint, but he started to get sloppy and booze and there was a famous case of him not checking out the gallows first and they tried to hang some poor dude about 4 times but the trap never opened. He was known as "the man they could not hang" the Queen even pardoned him!

People being sickos that they are would pay cash for any hanging memorabilia, in particular bits of the rope that hung notorious crims.
Hence the phrase "money for old rope"
The hangman would cut up the noose and rope after a hanging and sell it off.
James Berry though had a bad rep even for that. One critic said "after certain hangings Berry sold enough rope to reach to Coventry and back"

what are the defcon ratings and what the hell does defcon mean and is higher better, I found the answers here http://www.fas.org/nuke/guide/usa/c3i/defcon.htm

DEFCON DEFense CONdition

In the event of a national emergency, a series of seven different alert Conditions (LERTCONs) can be called. The 7 LERTCONs are broken down into 5 Defense Conditions (DEFCONs) and 2 Emergency Conditions (EMERGCONs).

Defense readiness conditions (DEFCONs) describe progressive alert postures primarily for use between the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the commanders of unified commands. DEFCONs are graduated to match situations of varying military severity, and are numbered 5,4,3,2, and 1 as appropriate. DEFCONs are phased increases in combat readiness. In general terms, these are descriptions of DEFCONs:

DEFCON 5 Normal peacetime readiness
DEFCON 4 Normal, increased intelligence and strengthened security measures
DEFCON 3 Increase in force readiness above normal readiness
DEFCON 2 Further Increase in force readiness, but less than maximum readiness
DEFCON 1 Maximum force readiness.

WORD OF THE WEEK (from dictionary.com)

Word of the Day Thursday, March 8, 2007

malapropism \mal-uh-PROP-iz-uhm\, noun:

The usually unintentionally humorous misuse of a word, especially by confusion with one of similar sound; also, an example of such misuse.

At 15, Rachel, the whiny would-be beauty queen who "cares for naught but appearances," can think only of what she misses: the five-day deodorant pads she forgot to bring, flush toilets, machine-washed clothes and other things, as she says with her willful gift for malapropism, that she has taken "for granite." -- Michiko Kakutani, "The Poisonwood Bible': A Family a Heart of Darkness", New York Times, October 16, 1998

He also had, as a former colleague puts it, "a photogenic memory"--a malapropism that captures his gift for the social side of life, his Clintonian ability to remember names of countless people he has met only briefly. -- Eric Pooley and S.C. Gwynne, "How George Got His Groove", Time, June 21, 1999

A malapropism is so called after Mrs. Malaprop, a character noted for her amusing misuse of words in Richard Brinsley Sheridan's comedy The Rivals.

Yesterday's Word - Previous Words - Help

effete \eh-FEET; ih-\, adjective:

1. No longer capable of producing young; infertile; barren; sterile.
2. Exhausted of energy; incapable of efficient action; worn out.
3. Marked by self-indulgence or decadence; degenerate.
4. Overrefined; effeminate.

Nor was it only the confirmed anti-democrats who thought democracy effete and worn out.
-- Mark Mazower, Dark Continent

"Editors", he snorts. "I think most of the editors I knew back East were effete snobs who showed an acute disdain for the sales and marketing side. It made me sick."
-- "Earning It", New York Times, July 9, 1995

In a democracy decadence does not arrive when the aristocracy becomes effete -- it shows up in the life of the average man.
-- Andrew Holleran, In September, the Light Changes

He wasn't refined or effete, but a horse trader, smart, clever, always with his ear to the ground.
-- Bob Ortega, In Sam We Trust

Effete derives from Latin effetus, "weakened by giving birth; worn out, exhausted; effete," from ex- + fetus, "bearing young, pregnant."

UNKNOWN COMEDIAN SECTION

Bedtime boys!
Oh mom!

Now hey there people, won't you lend an ear?
'cause I've a story to tell and I'm telling it here
I was born in a town in the great UK
From a baby to a boy to a man today
And I'm a musical man, and I'm a man of verse
But I've got a little problem and it's getting worse

Well my life was so well planned
Survivin' and a-jivin' in a f-f-funk band
'cause rappin', it's my, bread and butter
But it's hard to rap when you're born with a st-st-st, st, st-st, st,
st-t, st-t, stutter!

Well no-one's ever seen what I mean
From the age of n-n-n-n-n-n-thirteen
We've all been caught in a m-m-mouth trap
So join with us and do the st-st-st-st-st-st-st-stutter rap

Well it was '82 when I joined the boys
And I was hip, and I was cool, but now I've lost my poise
The kids, our fans, are starting to doubt
When you open your mouth and nothing comes out

And it breaks my heart that we're not on the chart
'cause the record's nearly over when the vocals start
And I'm down and out, and I'm down on my luck
And I'm livin' on my own and I'm dying for a fr-riend to say "You're great!" But I'm under the hammer
'cause all I seem to do is s-s-s-st-

Come on man!

s-s-s-st-stammer!

Well no-one's ever seen what I mean
From the age of n-n-n-n-n-n-thirteen
We've all been caught in a m-m-mouth trap
So join with us and do the st-st-st-st-st-st-st-stutter rap

Neighbours

Well interviewers turn away
Who wants to be covered with spray?
Talkin' to me for more than an hour
Is equivalent to an April shower
It's tough! Tough! Tougher than tough!
It's worse than Benny Hill and that's bad enough!
Something must be wrong with your vocal technique
When the twelve inch mix goes on for a week

I was rappin' in my club the other night
When nothin' I said was comin' out right
The crowd got angry, and this one man
He was gonna throw a bottle
He was gonna chuck a can, chuck a can, chuck it, chuck it, chuck it,
chuck it

Well no-one's ever seen what I mean
From the age of n-n-n-n-n-n-thirteen
We've all been caught in a m-m-mouth trap
So join with us and do the st-st-st-st-st-st-st-stutter rap

N-N-N-N-N-N-N-N-N-N-N-N-N-N-N-N-NO, NEED, FOR SHOUTING!

W-w-w-w-why's that then?

Well, you'll wake Mr Whittaker at number thirty-two

Besides, it's not very good for the voice

(An amplifier or similar shorts out)

Uuhhh!

That's a bit harsh isn't it?

NO, SLEEP, 'TIL BEDTIME!

Talking of which it's ten-thirty already!

Is it? Ooooh!

What time do they stay up 'til in America?

(I mean)

Oh, very late. Sometimes quarter to eleven

(Ahhhh)

Well actually I've heard in New York they sometimes even stay up 'til midnight

No! No wonder they do all that shouting

(I mean)

Yes, they must be very snappy and irritable

That's right

(Ahhhh)

Do you know, I heard a story that those Toastie Boys stayed up 'til
quarter past twelve!

Really? Well that's just silly!

They're just gonna get burnt out

Burnt out!

Well no-one's ever seen what I mean
From the age of n-n-n-n-n-n-thirteen
We've all been caught in a m-m-mouth trap
So join with us and do the st-st-st-st-st-st-st-stutter rap

Well no-one's ever seen what I mean
From the age of n-n-n-n-n-n-thirteen
We've all been caught in a m-m-mouth trap
So join with us and do the st-st-st-st-st-st-st-stutter rap

Well no-one's ever seen what I mean
From the age of n-n-n-n-n-n-thirteen...

HOSK INVESTIGATES

why is it called on the dole

http://www.idiomsite.com/onthedole.htm

On the dole
On the dole or 'unemployed' originated in the UK where the unemployment benefit is called 'the dole'. Probably comes from 'doling out' which means handing out.

Meaning 'unemployed' this is a british term. In Britain, unemployment benefits are called 'the dole'. It may have also come from 'doling out' which is another way to say handing out.

or

http://www.phrases.org.uk/meanings/266900.html

On the dole

Meaning

Unemployed and in receipt of state benefit.

Origin

In the UK, Unemployment Benefit has been known by the slang term 'the dole' since WWI. This derives from the 'doling out', i.e. 'handing out' of charitable gifts of food or money. This dates back to at least 1919, when it was recorded in The Daily Mail:

"You won't draw your out-of-work dole of 29s. this week."

"That's right. Well, I guess you can take one of my sheep," says the
shepherd. He watches the young man select one of the animals and looks
on amused as the young man stuffs it into the trunk of his car.
Then the shepherd says to the young man, "Hey, if I can tell you exactly
what your business is, will you give him back to me?"
The young man thinks about it for a second and then says, "Okay, why
not?"
"You're a consultant," says the shepherd.
"Wow! That's correct," says the young man, "but how did you guess that?"
"No guessing required," answered the shepherd. "You showed up here even
though nobody called you; you want to get paid for an answer I already
knew; to a question I never asked; and you don't know crap about my
business.

NOW GIVE ME BACK MY DOG."

Another bitmap brothers classic. This game was rock hard, it looked good enough to eat but I could barely make it past the first frekin level. I like the way you can almost hover over the end of platforms, I bet younuns these days don't need the iron discipline to walk up to the exact point at the end of a platform. I think when I was young I was too mentally tired after passing the first level to get any further

Non-Football Rumour Of The Day
'Crazed Britney Spears tried to hang herself with a bedsheet before pleading with her estranged husband to give her another baby. In a week of rehab madness, the bonkers beauty wrote the number of the beast, 666, on her shaved head before running round the clinic screaming "I am the Antichrist!" at frightened staff' - News of the World.

I'm not saying that stuff doesn't happen to the mighty Ipswich town but you know you are having a bad season when this is news

New Dugouts for Town

1 March 2007 11:14 GMT

Portman Road's dugouts will undergo a major overhaul in the summer, leading to a number of season ticket holders being forced to switch seats. The change is being made due to health and safety concerns regarding the current arrangements.

The new dugouts will meet Premiership standards which require space for 16 players plus staff. The entire central section of the lower tier of the Britannia Stand below the directors' box will now be used by the home and away squads and their management.

The move will mean that Portman Road's capacity, which stands at 30,310 this season, will be reduced by 52 with seats lost in rows D, E, F, G, H, J and K of the Britannia Stand. Fans with season tickets in these sections have been offered new seats in other areas of the ground at the same price as their existing seats.

In a letter to the affected season ticket holders, Town ticket office manager John Ford explained some of the reasons for the switch: "Throughout the summer we will be carrying out essential health and safety work on the home and away dugouts. There is some concern about the current structure's proximity to the pitch and to reduce the risk to players, we are planning to move the position of the dugouts.

"The dugouts will be one metre further back from the pitch and, because the concrete drop down steps will be removed, the structure will be higher. The dugouts will be a more modern style and made from reinforced glass with a minimum amount of pillar supports. This should help minimise the obstruction of views of the pitch from nearby seats."

As well as concerns about player safety, the new arrangement should prevent incidents where management and fans come into conflict, as famously occurred in the mid-nineties when then-Newcastle boss Kevin Keegan reacted angrily to supporters hammering on the roof of the away dugout.

"If you thought the term pig arose in the 1960s, you're in for a surprise. The OED cites an 1811 reference to a "pig" as a Bow Street Runner--the early police force, named after the location of their headquarters, before Sir Robert Peel and the Metropolitan Police Force. The usage was probably confined to the criminal classes until the 1960s, when it was taken up by protestors. False explanations for the term involve the gas masks worn by the riot police in that era, or the pigs in charge of George Orwell's Animal Farm."

From Groink, we have another explanation, nearly as old, and also referring to Sir Robert Peel and his men, with a bit clearer of an explanation as to why they were pigs:

"Police - pigs
Back in 1809, Sir Robert Peel entered the House of Commons in London - he developed a passion for Sandy Back pigs found in Ireland and began to breed them in Tamworth. Soon, these pigs were known as Tamworth pigs. Pig slang was commonplace in Tamworth because of this, it was in 1829 that the relation to police came into it.
Politicians were concerned about the way London was policed and Sir Robert Peel changed things - his changes resulted in the formation of the Metropolitan Police. This is why police are referred to as 'Bobbies' or 'Peelers'; they were Bobby's boys...
Due to the pig nature that Tamworth had become, the police suffered the same fate as other Tamworth products did: They became related to pigs. "

So, it's thanks to the Brits, for this bit of slang, it seems.

The original idea is generally attributed to the then 16 or 17 year old Nigel Alderton. After a month or two of development, Nigel took a pre-release version of his Spectrum code to the two year old software company A&F, co-founded by Doug Anderson (the A in A&F). Doug took on the simultaneous development of the BBC Micro version, whilst Mike Webb, an A&F employee, completed the Dragon port. Chuckie Egg went on to sell over a million copies and remained a steady earner for A&F, who eventually went under in the latter half of the 1980s.

The versions fall broadly into two groups - those with realistic physics (e.g. the BBC Micro and Amstrad CPC versions) and those without (e.g. the ZX Spectrum version). Although there is a substantial difference in play between the two, levels remain largely the same and all the 8-bit versions have been accepted as classics.

This game is often credited alongside Manic Miner and Lode Runner with helping develop and popularise the platform game, and has gone on to be a cult classic with a number of unofficial retro remakes appearing online.

Much of the game's cult status was helped by the fact that schools used BBC Micro computers, and many schools had a copy of the game, introducing it to a wide audience of youngsters.

'Police have condemned hecklers who urged a man to "get on with it" as he threatened to jump off the top of a multi-storey car park. A crowd gathered as the 21-year-old was perched on the eight-storey building in Mexborough, South Yorkshire, while officers tried to calm him down. But some onlookers started shouting at the man, urging him to jump. Trained negotiators later arrived at the scene near the town centre and persuaded the man to come down' - The BBC website.
