ROUND FIVE: finally!

deadpoolFinally! It took five months for that last poor bastard to die, but Sockless Joe wins it with good ol’ Al Haig. Joe seemed as happy as a man with two dicks.

Right! The rules:

1. Pick a celebrity. Any celebrity at all, though I reserve the right to nix picks I never heard of.

2. We start from scratch every time. No matter who you had last time, you have to turn up and pick again. Poaching happens!

3. Your first choice is the one that sticks. Choose wisely!

4. The new DeadPool begins the Friday after the next honoree kicks the bucket.

5. You can play for bragging rights alone, but if you want the fabulous prize, you have to trust me with a mailing address. Packages go by slow boat and typically take eight to ten weeks and arrive looking hungover.

And the fabulous prize? Naturally, it’s a double helping of Aunty’s spotted dick! They’re microwavable!

Yeah, I ate the one in the bowl. I bought a bunch of it and, when nobody died, I figured I’d better learn to love dick. Not bad, actually.

So, step up! Strangers, first-timers and noobs welcome. If I can lure you guys with dick jokes, I don’t know what the world is coming to.

The first time I actually saw spotted dick was on our honeymoon in Scotland. We went to see the queens boat in Edinburgh and they have this wonderful little snack shop attached. I of course got the spotted dick, cause I’m that sort of person and gleefully held it up so that the new husband could take my picture with it. I spied what I think was a local laughing his head off at me from across the room. For a brief moment I was embarrassed, then I thought fuck it, he’s never going to see me again and this was pure scrapbook gold!

Mrs Compton already got St Margaret of Thatcher, fritz.

And our septic outlet feeds into a long drainage ditch that is currently very overfull. If the water level submerged the tank outlet, we were going to shut down the whole deal to prevent the valve opening and taking a big ol’ sip of water. Though our tank guys said the pump was powerful enough to cope.

Country life, eh?

Actually, Jeff, I believe that what Ebert actually said was, “Aggggghhhh igghhhll.” 😉

Interestingly enough, it was reported on the radio this morning that they’ve fed Roger Ebert’s old sound bites into a software program, and he can now speak via computer. It even sounds like him, but with odd phrasing. Ain’t technology amazing?
