The web of rain weaves the urban bushes together, glistering meanly in the murky morning light.

1934 BORN Leonard Cohen, Canadian singer/songwriter and poet, The Partisan
In the 1700s, some European women achieved a pale complexion by eating "Arsenic Complexion Wafers" actually made with the poison.

The radio Crone says Bertanza Provenzana's relaxed posture getting into the car from the lie-bunal yesterday was him feeling good. I thought he looked incredibly tense. Funny how body language is to be interpreted as not-known. Death by a tousant cuts or a thousand shots or a thousant cliches. First of all, the media is to blame.

Self-consciously reaching for the relaxation button. Over-relaxed. Shouting comments to a plebian, talking about the match? Get in the fucking car and shut your mouth you clod.

One of these panelists is a fool. Cliche culchie. TEXT: This discussion is anti-Bertie!
I think I might send in a text, like, let's see, "He be Satan's dingle berry. Money-grubbing, lie-telling bastarding fucking sell-out prostituting our nation for shopping bags full of cash!"

150k wended its way to the leader of the Family in the 90s. Flying around collecting the cash in helicopters he was.

There's such a thing as a higher law. Nobody can understand the whys and wherefores of the Taoiseach's financial transactions. They have him on the stand and he's throwing down blinders left and right. None of the numbers add up to any of the stories. Holes. Trails. Walls.

DON: I can't tell yeez whar I was doing wi da money I took from de bank, the 50k. I know my people are sayin' it was de curtains and the cushions it was for, but I'm changing my story today. Dat's because it doesn't matter what sort of shite I say, you'll lap it up anyways. Sure I made Oireland. If I want to know what Ireland is thinkin', alls I have to do is look into me anorak's inside pocket.

Shake and bake. US forces using caster sugar on insurgents. Nah, white phosphorous on whoever is around, actually:

Everyone is baffled by Bertie's contradictory statements. The Teeshop's excuse for everything is that he can't remember, he's confused. He was too busy with the affairs of state to do the grubby clerking and filing. He feels the walls closing in tonight, no doubt.

For a Free State, there are precious few statistics about anything in this damn country.

World war three isn't between countries, it's between corporations. Blackwater be damned. Al-Quaeda be damned. Mehdi army be damned. IRA be damned. HSE be damned.

IRISH TV DRAMA: "NO FUCK DA IM SORRY STOP EURRUGH" and then drowning in a fight with the tide or death injury by stupid motive-less self-inflicted violence. Along comes mammy.
THE END
