Hey, Eccles, come to a swell party for the launch of my new Encyclical, "Where the Catholic church must go next." Admission fee only £500, and you'll get to meet my good friends Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Kim Jong-un. Yours, Tony.
And finally, one I won't be able to accept.
Surely some mistake?
BARACK AND MICHELLE OBAMA are holding a "Pride Party" to celebrate the adoption of a new American flag. No Limeys, Christians, Mormons, Republicans, or Chick-fil-A employees, please.
Gosh,darling Eccles, how exciting. Are you taking anti moly as your minus one? Xx Jess
ReplyDeleteNope, de bit I didn't mentoin was dat all de invitatoins said "P.S. Leave Anti Moly behind."
DeleteHaving received a rather intriguing comment on my donkey blog from Hamish, I looked in briefly at the latest Damian blog disaster to see what was happening. Apart from the rabit obsessions, which are quite remarkable, I was struck by the way that the whole "conversation" on that blog is now merely an exchange of insults between people with nothing to say. Needless to say, my simple comment that there is nothing interesting on the blog was deleted. Terribly weird place isn't it?
ReplyDeleteYou ain't gonna get much spiritaul nuorishment from Damain's blog, bruvver rabit. It's just a playgruond for poor old MolyMickyMarkyPau, Sancti and DarylPhil.
DeleteDere was a problem wiv de moderators too, as dey came ruond to a party and drank all de gin and Delinpol antifreeze. Now Damain recriutin a skelleton staff from de local lunatick aslyums.
Ho ho! Actually, I saw Hamish's comment on my blog when I was in between DVDs. (We have a heatwave from the Sahara here, so the only sensible thing is to stay indoors mid-afternoon.) I was watching Jean de Florette and then Manon des Sources. After looking at the Damian blog again for the first time in quite a while, and simultaneously stepping out of the provincial world of French petty hatred between neighbours in the film I had been watching, it struck me that the internet does everyone a service: people can have flame wars but nobody dies. The same miserable dregs of humanity in a war between neighbours can cause misery, suffering, death, and lasting damage to generations. The internet is perhaps nature's way of absorbing obsessive loonies.
