Almighty offended

Has California done something to upset God? They start moaning about an extended drought and water shortages. The next thing you know, the state is battered to bits and flooded by the mother of all bomb cyclones!

Desperation time

You have to wonder about the mental health of a bus driver who thought a court would believe he thought he was driving a single-decker when he smashed a double-decker bus into a low bridge.

Whose side are the sods on?

You have to wonder how many brain cells the current stock of chief constables of police forces have if they think it’s a good idea to erase vast numbers of criminal records from the PNC, which will result in much shorter sentences for hardened criminals. Has the police union been given a bung by the criminals’ union? That’s an obvious conclusion. It certainly explains the facts on offer.

Great idea

There seems to be an international campaign for Meaty Mondays to counter the veggies’ claim that Meat-Free Mondays with save the planet from global warming. I know which side I’m on!

Bright idea

Maybe we can have a revolution, bin Boris and go for the Saudi solution to zero carbon. Just keep on going as we are and promise to use yet-to-be invented technology to remove our carbon from the atmosphere 40 years from now.

Don’t buy it, no way

The 2016 Ghostbusters remake with female leads stars Kristen Wiig, says the Daily Mail TV guide? Who? Melissa McCarthy is the lead we’ve heard of.
    I liked the way you get a title in passing and all the rest of the credits are put on at the end. And Ms Weeeeeg does a good job as Erin the theoretical particle physicist, which sounds like a great job. If the particles are all theoretical, no one can prove your opinions about them are wrong!
    Someone weird did the subtitles. There was a £ pound sign to indicate musical lyrics instead of the US pound sign #. Must have been added by someone with a case of literalitis.

Really or just professionally

Is Prof. Brian Cox really worried that we’re all there is in the way of semi-intelligent life in the galaxy because we haven’t been visited by (conquering) aliens?
    Or is it just something that goes with the job as a tactic for being noticed? Or having something to say in front of the cameras.
