>> Mind the Gap <<
Madonna's children are nice
Madonna and family spent New Year in India.
For some no doubt clever celeb reasons
she and Guy sometimes travelled separately
from the kids. While many parents would love
to divest themselves of their screaming brats
on flights, fellow passengers said the little
Ritchies were impeccably behaved. The three
kids, plus nanny and bodyguard type, waited
quietly at Udaipur airport for a flight to
Mumbai. “Lourdes was, we're told, “beautiful
and just read a book”. Rocco and David
were “quiet and in full chav chic,
sporting Gap hoodies”.
-----------------------------------------------------
Sources in Kabul claim the Serena hotel was hit
for the second time yesterday but that there is
a news blackout on it.
-----------------------------------------------------
>> Rhodri's bread woes <<
Another Welsh MP goes dogging
P writes:
“I saw Wales’ First Minister, Rhodri Morgan, at
Riverside Food Market, Cardiff. He was telling
the owner of a dog who’d just put its head in
his bag of groceries, “I don’t think it’s
right that you let your dog go round licking
people’s bread.”
-----------------------------------------------------
The BBC News reporter on board the Greenpeace vessel
chasing the Japanese whaling flotilla in Antarctic
waters is called Jonah Fisher.
-----------------------------------------------------
>> Big Questions <<
Who is reaching for the cock this week?
This ex-pop star proudly showed off mobile
video footage to his mates of his then
girlfriend, a fallen teen pop idol,
giving him a blowjob while singing one of
her classic pop songs?
Which royal hanger-on has been overheard
making a lurid claim about a female royal,
stables, a rather fine stallion and an
enthusiastic hand-job?
-----------------------------------------------------
Jin the otter, who evaded capture for 26 days after
breaking out of Auckland zoo, has a new home in
Wellington Zoo with her partner Jala.
-----------------------------------------------------
>> Voodoo vile <<
Oops did we do it again?
In 2000 we carried a story from a voodoo
expert, Ruben Cardenas, who said that
celebrity dolls could be used to generate
curses. But Cardenas claimed that celebrities
with doll merchandise, like Britney and
Christina, would be safe as it's really hard
to become a voodoo priest. Maybe he was wrong.
Cardenas is right that it's not easy. You
have to go to Haiti and persuade a Houngan
(head priest) to teach you. He makes you
take a purifying bath, fast, and wear dried
palm fronds as protection against evil
spirits. Then you have to lie down for a
few days, have a head-washing ceremony
and finally face "trial by fire". You're
then "reborn", and wear white, with a
palm-leaf mask. At this point you would
be able to control Britney's mind and body
using her dolls, some pins, and a blow-torch.
So the question is, which one of you is it?
And don't you think it's time to put down
the pins and the Britney doll?
-----------------------------------------------------
The insider diagnosis on Brit: crystal meth-induced
mental breakdown. Can't she just be sectioned now
for her own safety? We don't want to lose her.
-----------------------------------------------------
>> Atomic Giraffe <<
Better than a human shield
All through the Cold War, our survival
was largely in the hands of the
North American Aerospace Defense Command,
who continually monitored the skies for
nuclear threats. NORAD's base, Cheyenne
Mountain, Colorado, was - and probably
still is - the world's number one nuclear
target. So you'd think Cheyenne Mountain
would be deserted and remote. It's not.
It hosts a zoo, which has the largest
collection of giraffes in the world, to
whom you can feed special “giraffe crackers”.
There are also hippos, tigers, a special
Primate World, a copy of the Rift Valley,
wolves and meercats.
Let's hope Osama and Amadinejad also have a soft
spot for our long-necked friends...
Where's Osama? Keep an eye out with the Giraffecam:

>> Music industry meltdown <<
Hands up if you want an answer
The EMI soap opera rolls on. Our favourite
legend so far is that Guy Hands, after his
initial introduction to how the music business
works, looked up and asked, “So these bands
who don't make us any money... when do they
pay back their advances?”
One of EMI's artists, Robbie Williams,
signed a 80m pound deal in 2002, announcing
“I'm rich beyond my wildest dreams!”.
Sadly things haven't quite gone to plan.
“EMI is understood to have more than a
million unsold copies of Robbie Williams'
Rudebox album which it will send to China
to be crushed up and used in road surfacing
and street lighting" (Guardian, 16th Jan)

Sweaty crotch advertising takes off
The ad campaign for Tom Ford's new fragrance
for men hits new heights of art-****. So
one web designer has posted his riposte.
It's brilliant.
Perhaps the fashion world hasn't quite
got its head round the idea of a piss-take,
as a new “designer hair fragrance” liked it
so much they're trying to commission
this guy for their ad campaign.
