.with rob zombie's: ***** liquor in the background,
a man perched on windowsill,
one foot tapping along,
the other foot folded
and sat on...
come to think of it,
why am i not bothered,
not bothered by the neighbours?
well, one ****** tried it,
complained about me smoking out
of my window,
and that one time i was making a b.b.q.
and he said: 'you should have warned
us!' the ****?
all beause he had been doing
his washing and was drying his clothes
on a washing line, 20 metres from my b.b.q.,
and now they're moving house.
the english,
they always want a house with a garden...
in the vicinity?
you know how many times i've
seen the english use their gardens?
roughly 5 times per year...
they rarely even attempt to switch
the garden to a ******* venture when
the one toilet is occupied by someone
taking a shower...
for all the wants of a garden,
i haven't seen anyone around here
take to planting a cherry tree,
or burrying their cremated cat...
i guess i must be the odd one out...
i mean: i'll integrate up to a point,
but then... well there's just me,
rumours...
rumours...
apparently donald tusk got
the job as the president of the european
council, because he mingled
with frau kanzler
over the position...
**** me...
27 prime ministers,
but only 1 chancellor...
who said the stereotype
of jews being good with money,
never made it to the stereotype of germans?
the rumour is...
he got the job...
only because his father was
in the wehrmacht...
after all, he did write
a bestseller book about the city of Danzig...
no surprise there,
given that Danzig was reminiscent
of a city-state akin to Athens or Sparta...
mind you, better than any movie
on a friday night,
tuning in on the 66th minute
of Liverpool vs. Southampton...
waiting for the 1 - 1 draw...
but the genius of jürgen jürgen (klopp)
came through...
funny that,
people with funny surnames...
dialect distinctions...
klop in western slavic implies
the ******* - ide na klopa -
i'm going to sit on a toilet...
****** must have been a funny surname
before its notorious prominence...
but rarely do you get to see 28 minutes
of a football match of this sort of quality...
wolverhampton wanderers...
they're playing a very interesting piece
of football this season...
very portugese barzilian-esque...
everybody knows that
italian football is boring
(too many passes),
and german football is just too predictable...
but how the hell did Liverpool
come up with 2 goals in a period of 28 minutes...
mind-boggling...
i'm always there for the sport per se,
i don't really feel inclined
to have a vested interest in the sport
as to pick a side,
what once was
religion, now becomes infused
in sports... seriously...
count me out of this secular take
on religiosity...
i'll pay my dues: were deserved
dues are due...
that's probably i much
prefer the olympics to this coming farce
of a world cup...
how many footballers are going
to drop dead, from heat exhaustion?
we must thank our camel cockey bwovers
for cracking up the heat
in air-conditioned stadiums...
once upon a time, the arabs had,
enviable traits...
now? with all that wealth?
take a guess;
if muhammad was raised from
the dead?
you'd see a forest
of pikes, on top would sit, decapitated heads
of his own people...
but that's a wild idea,
perhaps even he, couldn't avoid
the temptation;
nonetheless, is it wrong to say that some
sports are over-represented?
well, d'uh!
olympics comes,
and i always look forward to classical
wrestling matches,
archery,
ha ha... ping-pong...
sure... none of the tennis allure...
but it's a welcome break from
mainstream sports...
and this whole
team religiosity influence...
that **** bores me to death...
clearly religion didn't die,
it just morphed...
oh, really? it's that time of year?
the one time of the year
where i become a gambler?
what? it's the quiche thing to do
in england, a bit like sipping
pimm's and eating eaton mess
at wimbledon...
the grand national...
betting on a horse...
and just to prove i'm no
gambler - why would i dream about
going to las vegas?
that shitshow of a town?
all the best strip-clubs in the world:
but no brothel.
eh?!
tiger roll (7 to 2)
is attempting to make history,
by clinging to: two years in a row...
i only have 4 quid to spend on the bet...
so 2 horses...
2 quid each...
hmm...
'further rain would help
him to step forward'
i checked the weather forecast
(the grand national happens somewhere
south of liverpool, i think)
rainy...
overcast... step back (25 to 1)...
now a compensation
horse...
i'll need a few more whiskies
before i make this blind bet lucky hope...
i'm not betting on tiger roll (7 to 2) -
the odds are not wildcard enough...
mind you, not being a gambling *****:
i do know that rolling tobacco
needs to be fresh,
slightly moist, in order to roll it,
you can still roll the dry tobacco,
but then you'd also require
obc cigarette tubes,
and one of those "gizmos" /
machines, to pull off
a perfect match...
no in a millions years will you get
out a perfect rollie
with dry, pall mall tobacco...
when no golden virginia is available...
point: but you're also
not going to **** dry the filter
with dry tobacco...
harder to roll,
but an easier smoke...
anyway...
back to the grand national...
look, i'm no dustin hoffman
rainman hack...
i felt like ******* away
4 quid's worth on an event, sue me...
1 up for review (25 - 1)
'could relish this test;
must be a contender'
2a folsom blue (50 - 1)
'mud-lover; stays well
but at veteran stage'
2b general principle (40 - 1)
'best not ignore this irish
national winner'
3 ramses de telilee (25 - 1)
'welsh national second;
stays well and improving'
4 ballyoptic (28 - 1)
'scottish national second;
cannot rule out'
5a mala beach (50 - 1)
'fresh; could suit;
a lively outsider'
5b go conquer (33 - 1)
'bids to give his trainer
a third national'
5c lake view lad (14 - 1)
'improving steadily and
this trip should suit'
5d jury duty (16 - 1)
'should relish this trip.
could get a positive verdict'
6 vieux lion rouge (33 - 1)
'has tried three times in
this; fourth time lucky?'
7 bless the wings (66 - 1)
'would be the oldest winner
since 1853'
so...
gambling, fascinating,
how there's no objectivity argument,
and all the sort of superstitions associated
with it... a truly, magnanimous,
secular age...
football as a religion,
gambling on horses as the trials
of fate / luck / whatever belief...
truly... gratifying...
and i don't imply that in any pompous
sense, i'm about to invest 4 quid
in the whole affair!
my pick?
step back 25 to 1 odds
first choice...
so it's either between
the mud-lover folsom blue... 50 to 1 odds,
ah... i'll need more wizard like
uncertainty when it comes
to gambling,
repeating to myself:
there's no such thing as luck,
there's no such thing as luck,
gambling is only subjective,
gambling is the reiteration
of a religious experience,
it's the sensible option,
it's the sensible option, ****...
i'll just split the 4 quid over 4 horses
rather than bet 2 quid on 2...
per quid:
step back
jury duty
up for review
go conquer / folsom blue
****...
no wonder i never got
into gambling...
i never fathomed the aspect
of winning
as much as i never fathomed
the aspect of losing,
or how they're paired up
and consecrated on the same
altar of, "thrill"...
that cut /
betweeen
go conquer and folsom blue...
horses have the oddest names...
dogs?
probably the shittest names
in the whole of the kingdom...
oscar darshan...
quorus...
these being cat names...
go figure.
