Of course! Not just sport, general news and entertainment.. Tis essential to have a broad portfolio It is too. It's a ruthless world so make sure you are knowledgeable about your own subject, well read in others and wear clean pants everyday! Well 1 outta 3 ain't bad at this stage.. (Pants! )

I find my mind wandering to tapirs more recently. Monkeys are soooo last season! Tapirs are a fad, essentially the 'shell suit' of the mammalian world. You'll look back on these sentiments in 6 months and feel suitably embarrassed. Tiny primates are a timeless design classic, and will outlast these imposters to their throne, showing them up as the 'johnny come lately' fraudsters they surely are! I'd rather have one of these than a shell suit....

Looks like mummy's been playing away with an overly familiar zebra while on that 'working holiday' in the savannahs! Mind you, I'd like to see one of them in a shell suit!

Aww that's what all baby tapirs look like. The fur falls off when they get older. I too would love to see on in a turquoise shell suit, a la Icke! ;D

Every word he spoke seemed very coherent!

Now that is the sort of dreams I should be having! Pass the Stilton! ;D No he was definitely on, speaking on the beach on the Isle Of Wight to a bloke called Karl Pilkington (Podcast star and idiot extraodinaire). They were discussing whether intelligence was that important, and he was providing tips on how to argue that the case of a mud eating woman was actually true. He was, really! .........I watched it again in the morning.

That doesn't sound right, although I seem to recall that you are the boards' premier authority on that show so I won't argue. Well the said Mr Pilkington is (unwittingly) a comedy genius, simply on the grounds of being one of the most stupid men ever to inhabit this planet. He also has an obsession with monkeys!! ;D

That only reinforces my reason for mentioning cuttlefish though - I can't help but feel they don't get enough publicity! There is honestly one in this pic too...

No this guy believes in ghosts but spends more time discussing monkeys and their pioneering work in space travel, television, winter sports and commerce.

And do you have any idea how much of a pain in the arse it is to shell seeds all day on their behalf so that budgies can eat? (My great-nan had one that was born without a beak, so I do have some idea!) Cuttlefish deserve much more publicity than they get - I mean, when was the last time you saw a newspaper headline that said '"Ooooh, cuttlefish!" says man'? I blame wasps They can fuck right off!

This man doesn't exist you've just imagined him in your dreams with David Icke. Did they call to you with a mission?
