Pride's Purge

(satire – sort of)

Tests by experts on the Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg have revealed most of the deputy prime minister is made up entirely from chicken mechanically separated from the backbone.

The Food Safety Authority analysed 18 of Mr Clegg’s speeches and all of them contained between 60% and 100% chicken, as well as large amounts of unidentified b***ocks, the FSA said.

In response to the shocking findings, a spokesperson for the Liberal Democrat Party assured any voters who may have bought into Mr Clegg’s promises that they can get a full refund after the next election by never voting for him ever again.

However, the FSA has ordered urgent tests on the quality of the Deputy Prime Minister’s electoral pledges after concerns they may contain as little as 0% of the ingredients he promised on the packaging.

Pride's Purge

(satire – probably)

North Korea has tossed its third and biggest pancake yet despite UN warnings against international tossing of battered fried puddings, and said “even stronger” flavourings such as cheese and bacon might follow.

It described the toss as a “self-defensive measure” necessitated by the “continued hostility” of the US to eating pancakes with anything other than maple syrup all over them.

Its main ally, China, criticised the North Korean pancake for “being far too sweet”, which was also universally condemned worldwide for using too much lemon and not enough sugar.

International monitors in Vienna say the pancake had double the egg to milk ratio of the 2009 test, despite reportedly involving a smaller frying pan.

If, as North Korea reports, a smaller crepe was tossed successfully, analysts say this could take Pyongyang closer to building a device small enough to make a blueberry muffin.

RIP Ace…

Hummus For Thought

Ace was a bit of an idiot. He rarely listened to anything I ever said. Wouldn’t sit, wouldn’t come and him rolling over was as likely as me getting pregnant with a Swahili-speaking invisible pink unicorn.

We got Ace barely a few days after Dixie’s death. We were still mourning. Dixie’s death was very unexpected. But the resemblance was uncanny except for the fact that Ace was younger and a male.

In June 2006, a car parked on the side of the road. A woman came out, opened her door, dumped a dog and left. Were it not for some kind-hearted person, and BETA’s awesomeness, we would have never gotten Ace.

Ace was the only one of the ‘new generation’ dogs who knew Rex, my old dog who lived with us, along with his twin sister Reglise, who had died a few months before, and who himself died a few…
