  1. Sorry! Are you suggesting that we AREN'T? Iran; 1953. Iraq; 2003. Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable. Prenait la pisse hors du FrançaisCanadiens méridionaux puisqu'avant lui à la mode.
  2. I heard about that - so I've "corrected" the story! Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable. Prenait la pisse hors du FrançaisCanadiens méridionaux puisqu'avant lui à la mode.
  3. And there we have the Clan MacFeegle version! What really happened was that Mr. W. Wallace Esq, having regained consciousness and crying "Whit Ra Feck 'Appened", then mistook a group of English neighbours, coming to help, for "Yon Bunch O' Bastards Whit Belted ma Heid and stole Ma Favourite Sheep, Morag!" The rest, as they say, is history! Morag was never seen again. You actually have to wait for more modern times until there is a record of The Clan MacFeegle heading south towards London. This particular Scottish invasion was abandoned at Crewe when the Buffet Car ran out of alcohol! Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable.

  4. Actually, The Clan MacFeegle occupies an unusual (and fortunately UNIQUE) place in Scottish History! You will never find them on any Clan map of Scotland. Nor will you find their Clan Tartan... Breed of sheep... Castle... Home Etc... The reason for this is that they never actually owned any of these things! If they ever happened to need Food, Clothing, Shelter, or even (VERY occasionally) WOMEN they simply waited 'til it was dark and clubbed the nearest fellow Scot over the head & took the stuff. While there were occasions in Scottish History when other clans committed similar acts, The Clan MacFeegle were perhaps unique in being consistently too bloody lazy to bother keeping the stuff. For example, when The Clan MacFeegle seized Stirling Castle on Tuesday September 10th 1297 they basically kipped there for the night, ate a sheep for breakfast and then buggered off, leaving the proper owner, one WIlliam Wallace, wondering: "Whit Ra Feck 'Appened?" when he regained consciousness! Despite their somewhat obscure place in Scottish History, they were widely feared throughout the land, and their terror remains to this day. I have personally seen the awesome Nac MacFeegle charging over the crest of a hill wiff his skirt billowing "seductively" (his description) around his thighs and waving his Sgain-Dubh (which he prefers to call his Claymore) about. This very sight has caused thousands to scatter... And I can assure you that every single one of those sheep was scared for a lot more than it's life! Mike.

  5. Nope! The FBU is criticising the local fire service for being inadequately epuipped.... What is "Adequate Equipment" to deal with a fire that shows up on weather satellites!? "A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools The Clan MacFeegle." Oh yeah... Fixed your sig line for ya! Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable. Prenait la pisse hors du FrançaisCanadiens méridionaux puisqu'avant lui à la mode.
  6. Now that the fire is being brought under control... It's blamin' time! Apparently the Fire Service is being criticised because the local Fire Station was inadequately equipped to deal with this incident! Now! Don't just sit there, you should ALL get down to your local fire stations and check that their couple of tenders CAN can deal wiff explosive fires that can be seen from space & heard in nearby countries!

  7. Meine deutsche Grammatik ist angemessen, aber ich benötige manchmal Hilfe mit (beim?) Wortschatz. Altavista Babelfish ist sehr nutzlich. Tschuess, (see, I remember) Mike.

  8. NO IT EFFIN' CAN'T!!! Nae-Bugger died & made you Lew Grade! The climax is set in WASHINGTON DC! Wiff Dubya & Condie together in the Presidential Bog just as the second Bouncin-Basketball-Bomb smashes through the window!! You CAN'T put Dubya in Vietnam!!!... He was in The TEXAS NATIONAL GUARD AIR FORCE!... Remember!? Mike. Edited to add: Anyway... some of Sir David's "Bedsheet-Wearing" associates have since been in touch. We've now got a working title: THE DAMNATION-BUSTERS! Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable.

  9. My god! It really affects ANY & EVERY religion... Even week old made up ones. Never mind the Catholics Vs Protestants or the Sunni Vs Shia.... We now have a RELIGIOUS WAR brewing between the Big-B(.)(.)bieists and the Small-B(.)(.)bieists!!!!!! While the HERETICAL Man-B(.)(.)bieists go unpunished! Mike.

  10. I did "Tell it RIGHT!" My screenplay (though I say it myself) is FECKIN' SUPERB!!! It plays due homage to the original while bring the story into a modern context! I even fixed the whole "Dog-Naming" thing ina politically correct yet relevant way! What more do you want!!? Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable.

  11. Awww... C'Mon... The Al-Jazeera version of The Dambusters will be great!!! The tale of a daring raid on Dubya's drinks cabinet by a team of Brave Korean Islamic Hang Glider Pilots equipped with Basketballs full of Semtex... You can sympathise at the feelings of our Heroic Islamic Koreans when they're taken off Suicide-Bombings and made to practice, practice, practice in a basketball court. You can thrill at the tension when a Redneck who lives next to the Hang-Gliding School realises what's being planned! Then, just as he's about to phone The FBI, he notices a condom machine and decides to put all his quarters into that instead, just so that he can have sex with Slatternly Western Women rather than saving his President! You can cry when the heroic Islamic Korean Leader, Guy Gib-San is told, just as he's about to climb the Washington Monument to launch his hang-glider and embark on the great mission, that his Beloved Dog; Infidel has just become RoadKill on The GW Beltway. Will there be a dry eye in the house at: "Gib-San, Your beloved dog is dead. What shall we do?" And he replies: "We'll be starting our attack run at midnight! Put INFIDEL on to boil then and we'll eat him on our return!" Then. The GRANDE-FINALE. The Same Music... The hang gliders swooping down along Pennsylvania Avenue... The Basketball bouncing through the West-Wing Entrance past the amazed faces of The Secret-Service Guards... The Hang-Gliders banking away unscafed through multi-coloured tracer fire... A slow motion of the Semtex-Filled Basketball smashing Dubya's Drinks Cabinet into a thousand pieces before detonating... The Hero Gib-San shouting the code word "INFIDEL! INFIDEL! INFIDEL" into his walkie-Talkie just as the tracer finds him and he goes down in flames... The West Wing Entrance Guards drowned as the contents of Dubya's drinks cabinet washes out and over them... A second "Bouncing Basketball Bomb" smashing through the window of The Executive Bathroom and a "Texan" voice shouting: "OH SHIT CONDIE...!!! IT'S GONNA BLOW!!!!!!!"... I can picture it... I can tell you... It's all stirring stuff! Then finally, the end emotional juxtaposition of simultaneous pride and sorrow, as the survivors return and hold their victory dinner lamenting the death of their leader while eating his beloved dog... Knowing that Gib-San and "INFIDEL" are now re-united in Paradise. It'll be beautiful. Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable.

  12. Perhaps you should shop HERE There's a lovely little FV432. Only one previous owner (who used it for touring Germany) and ideal for those crowded supermarket car parks. Mike.

  13. Naaahh... That's just the disguise that the Heroic Islamic Korean "INFIDEL"-eating Hang-Glider pilots use during their raid! Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable. Prenait la pisse hors du FrançaisCanadiens méridionaux puisqu'avant lui à la mode.
  14. Wasn't err... "Darker-Skinned-American" one of the code words for a successful breach? That means that the crews deliberately made a racially offensive broadcast and indeed conspired with the entire squadron to do so. I further believe that everyone involved cheered and celebrated when this racist slur was broadcast! Surely in these politically correct times that in itself should be sufficient to have their VCs & other medals rescinded, those still alive brought before the courts & punished, and the remainder re-interred in unmarked graves to prevent their burial place becoming some sort of shrine for racists! ========================== Of course, Sir David Frost now works for Al-Jazeera (just so we know who's likely to make the film) so maybe they could give the story the usual Hollywood style treatment. It's now the tale of a daring raid on Dubya's drinks cabinet by a team of brave Islamic Hang Glider Pilots equipped with Basketballs full of Semtex! Oh yeah... The dog is now called "INFIDEL"! Mike. Edited to add: The brave Islamic Hang-Glider Pilots are all Koreans who support the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. Thus they get to EAT Infidel at their victory banquet. I am available to write the detailed screenplay at Sir David's convenience. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable.

  15. Strictly between the two? How often do you expect to need to use it in self-defence as opposed to how often are you going to practice? IMHO either will get a potential assailant's whole & undivided attention. My own preference would be for a double-tap of 9mm rather than a single blast of .45ACP. Remember that the military 9mm ball is supposed to be a "humane" round per some bit of The Geneva Convention that prohibits armys using non-jacketed bullets. As has been said elsewhere, there's other types of 9mm out there which means you can use the "Cheap-as-Chips" 9mm Ball on the range and switch to frangible for the "off-range-just-in-case" scenario.

  16. But Yea, despite the craven worship of False B(.)(.)bies, this thread shall rise again.... It's all about being flexible... See? Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable. Prenait la pisse hors du FrançaisCanadiens méridionaux puisqu'avant lui à la mode.
  17. ONLY... They don't want to actually fight! At least, not get involved in a fight where they might have to actually face someone who'll fight back! They (in very unsociological tems) want to gob off, intimidate folk, and feel "git ded tough" when they go back to the 'hood and tell their tales of darein' do. Again, I'm talking about both parties and bitter experience of how fast the bleat about THEIR rights when they're grabbed and faced with someone who's apparently likely to be every bit as nasty as they were!

  18. Sounds great! Which DZ & flight info please? Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable. Prenait la pisse hors du FrançaisCanadiens méridionaux puisqu'avant lui à la mode.
  19. So... What it comes down to is a bunch of arseholes looking for trouble and looking for an excuse to cause trouble as a pack! For the avoidance of doubt I'm talking about BOTH sets of protagonists here. Speaking as a cop who worked in the days when "Thick-Ear" policing was acceptable, I'm really starting to feel quite nostalgic for that era. Mike.

  20. Yep. Humour... Anything. Even "Dear Abby" advice.... "Dear Abby, I have been so blessed in my life. Great parents, great wife and kids, great job, and great education. When I finally retired, I could hardly wait to spend time enjoying my favorite pastime -- bass fishing. I got my own little fishing boat and tried to get my wife to join me, but she just never liked fishing. Finally, one day at the Bait & Tackle Shop, I got to talking to Sam, the shop owner, who it turned out loves bass fishing as much as I do. We quickly became fishing buddies. As I said the wife doesn't care about fishing: she not only refuses to join us, she complains that I spend too much time fishing. A few weeks ago Sam and I had the best fishing trip ever. Not only did I catch the most beautiful bass you've ever seen, only a few minutes later Sam must have caught his twin brother! So I took a picture of Sam holding up the two nice bass that we caught and showed the picture to the wife hoping that maybe she'd get interested. Instead she says she doesn't want me to go fishing at all anymore! And she wants me to sell the boat! I think she just doesn't like to see me enjoying myself. What would you do? Tell the wife to forget it and continue my hobby or quit fishing and sell the boat as she insists? Thanks, A fisherman P.S. I have enclosed the picture of Sam showing off the bass that we caught."

  22. Actually the US declared war on Germany first, on December 11. Err... NO! NO! and NO!!! (clicky for the internet age). OUtside of "The ABC of WWII" wiff colour piccies, the order of events was: 1. 7/12/1941: Japanese bomb Pearl Harbour. 2. 8/12/1941: US & Britain simultaneously & seperately declare war on Japan. 3. 11/12/1941: Germany & Italy declare war on US.
