Richard Reid attempts to destroy a passenger airliner by igniting explosives hidden in his shoes aboard American Airlines Flight 63.

The Turgid stick insect is fascinated with a child's poem as read by Al Pacino all of a month ago in Trinity (topical). He invites a fag graduate from UCD and a prick of a "poet" from Cork on to discuss. The fag is quite good. The Cork fucker only wants to read his own poetry into the record. (It's awful, for the record.) Stick insect had the chutzpah to mention his Leaving Cert. Get over it. Once you get past 25, you shouldn't mention your high school experiences to validate anything.
10:10
The second fastest land mammal in the world is the Pronghorn Antelope (North America), clocking in at 54mph/90kph.
10:12
Now another sit-down takes place by the Minister for the Disruption of Justice and his Prats-In-Hats. Nearly 60 murders this year. Doubling of homicide in a decade. Who's the government for that whole time? Fianna fall-over-and-die and their slumped-over-the-wheel coalition.
10:13
Pat Police found out that the Gardai don't have emails. Don't have radio. Don't get to eat out so much as in the old days.
10:14
Bloodshot McDog is upset because the judges won't heel to his whistle. Maybe there's something in his jumped-up legislation that stinks.
10:18
Recreational cocaine use. Criminalise the user.
- Tawnishte to his credit ...

Are ye any good with a shovel?
The Shinners have a British Agent in their midst. We won't be telling them about our struggle for independence, they'll go telling the others. We have no way to protect ourselves by trusting others. Shinners Out!
17:10
Elements were spying for 20 years. He's outed. The fucking squeak-box. Fuck his mother. And his daughter. The thing is fucking outrage! Let him fucking run, we'll catch him.
17:16
Sinn Fein "Stormontgate" official outed as British spy
17:22
The "Norn Iron Office" says it was the paramilitaries' fault. Maybe they should have been busting MI5 folk but the tagues are more fun. Dey get so riled up!

4 sides to a square. 6 to a cube.

Up dere be the Guinnesses. Old man, about 70 with the bald head and all. Standing beside his cab. Urinating against the rear wheel of it (to be discreet) onto the quaint dual tracked cobblestoned street. I glance back. Framed against the gates of the Victorian brewery a pair of headlamps burns the night while the sound of running water tinkles to de kerb.

Jesus McDog is on a pre-election, post-societal meltdown media blitz. On the telly tonight. On the telly the other night. On the radio. On the newspapers with his choice statements of the obvious, repeated. ("If you snort coke in Foxrock, someone gets shot in West Dublin.")
21:04
Gettin' in on the act in Limerick. 62 homicides and counting, the highest in the history of the state. Mickey Moo is having more meetings about defending the State from the citizens of the state.
21:05
Cops want more powers to stitch up the gangsters like they stuck it to the subversives in the "Special" Criminal Court. And more chippers next to the copshops. Also, the 60-day wait for forensics is problematic because there's only a 42-day period in which the book of evidence should be submitted.
21:30
A man got wallied by a car involved in a car chase with the cops. Cops are keeping schtum.
21:36
The Americans have said that an unemployed Irish journalist is the head of al-Quaeda. And they're the ones with no intelligence problems.
