June 2nd News Snippets

2 June 2009

Well folks, late afternoon, early evening…. Andy Murray is on the telly (although it’s been watched online and he’s 1 set down).  A Plane has gone missing – however – it would seem it’s not lost now, it’s crashed, RIP to all on board, (Air France Plane Lost) – it now looks as though they’ve spotted some debri from the plane.

Staying with the bad news, my heartfelt sympathies go out to the family : Suicide jump boy had died at home – not just the same day – but 4 days earlier, the parents jumped off a cliff with the 5 year old in a rucksack, and toys in another rucksack, I know it’s suicide obviously, but aw, man, no need to do that… I’m gobsmacked.

Astronauts have space headache, researchers say – that raised an laugh out of me…. After quizzing 17 seasoned astronauts they found more than two-thirds suffered from headaches on missions yet were headache free back on earth. Umm…. and?? I get headaches at work – but not at home!!!! – doesn’t everyone??? pfft!

Ronald Reagan ‘appears and talks to Nancy’ – she’s obviously in need of some media attention…. However, I believe it.

Talent winners to star in 3D film – I wonder if Priory Clinic star Susan Boyle would be starring in the film if she’d won… Nope, you’re right – I don’t think so – her good looks would have been lost in a 3D film…

One thing I really love reading every day is the “Tuesday’s gossip column” (obviously name changes each day), it’s full of all the newspaper’s dubious stories… Tony Adams to Celtic, David Moyes offering £50k a week for Michael Owen to come to Everton, Robhino’s not leaving Man City (hey, they have a 50% chance of getting this one right – he either is or isn’t)! Real Madrid will use rookie striker Negredo as bait in a bid for Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso – but they will first have to buy back the forward from Almeria  – um – eh?! what a team…. Real Madrid – you’ve got to love their hype. – there are lots of other news/gossip that they update throughout the day – keep an eye on it!

Scientists have located 38 emperor penguin colonies in Antarctica by using satellites to look for stains from the animals’ droppings – cool as… give a new impetus to the Space program – let’s spy on the shite of Penguins… Droppings put penguins on map

And how cool is that – the Space Shuttle The space shuttle Atlantis rides piggyback on a 747 plane as the two depart from Edwards Air Force Base in California en route to Florida on 1 June 2009.

And do people who visit Dubai not understand, if you commit adultery or some other “against their views” act, then – here in the UK, you will be slagged off for it… or even worse – Jail Time! – nice! Adulterous couple jailed in Dubai – obviously not learned!

Boy is floored by Pietersen shot – aw, brilliant Pietersen has now gave the boy a signed Bat… which will no doubt be on Ebay next week.

So, GM have applied for Bankrupty protection in America…. some nice cars they’ve produced over the years, especially the Cadillac – have a look : http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/8068390.stm

Let’s go to the Welsh news, there’s normally something funny in there… (I’m not digging any Welsh folks btw) – Royal harpist on burglary charges – Please tell me you are kidding on.. ha no details on what “she” burgled…. Jemima Phillips, 27, from St Briavels, was the only musician to play at the wedding reception of the Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall. hmm, wonder if she stole something from them!! haha!

Well, I can’t find anything else exciting today.. so that’s the news over…
(oh and if you are wondering – the Andy Murray game is now 1 set a-piece)

enjoy the rest of your evening..
