I
visited my father in his nursing home today. In the lift(elevator)
there was a sign saying “If this lift stops suddenly, press the red
button and wait for assistance.” As opposed to what? Making an ice
carving of the Titanic??
But
anyway, Chelsea delivered another outrageous result tonight, beating
Bayern Munich on penalties, after the game was drawn 1-1 after extra
time. And it's not often that English teams beat German teams on
penalties. Not that there were a lot of Englishmen in the Chelsea
team. But that's football for you. Although unworthy, they're now European champions.
I
read somewhere today that the Dutch call officious people who stick
to the letter of the law 'ant-fuckers'. Which seems like a welcome
addition to the English language. To me at least.
Finally
. . . Here's some of the millions of words currently being written
about the euro and its (non)future. From a sceptic.
