"Of course," she adds, "if by some terrible chance they should find Michael guilty I will have to wring all of they little necks."

id confiscate the posters too. imagine the paper cut you could give someone with a seven foot piece of sugar paper. 'germany fights with you?' thats not a mesage of support- its a coded warning.

Did those German fans change their names to Klinger and Maniak do you think, or is it just a spooky coincidence?

I think every BBC News article should have a TMO Add Reply button associated with it by default. They always seem to come up with good thread ideas.

Celebrity spoon-bender Uri Geller is touting himself around as an expert guest (fee negotiable) if his "great friend" is found innocent.
If he is found guilty however (and of course he will be found guilty on at least the supplying alcohol charges as he has presented no real defence) then Geller will sadly be "unavailable".
Gosh, what a great friend.
I'm thinking of bidding for Jonathan King instead, you reckon he'd be up for a chat?

Darryn? How much can we afford? Whip-round time, everyone.

Uri Geller eh? He is a twat of the highest order.
This whole spoon bending thing, now obviously he cant actually bed spoons with his mind or he wouldn't be dicking about with high profile 'celebrities', he'd be in some secret lab somewhere. Probably deep underground, strapped into a Farady cage with electrodes welded to his temples. And anyone with a modicum of intelligence knows it.
So he has built his entire pitiful 'career' on a cheap stunt that anyone with a 'My First Magic Tricks' picture book could master. And I be he is fucking loaded.
What a cnut.

Why is he in the UK anyway? Is he English? If not then you should all just tell him to fuck off. Shout it loud, like the Chinese tits and fanny thing.

There was a thing on the radio a few years ago where this Uri Geller-styled bender told people to go and get their old broken watches out of the drawer (where we all keep broken watches) and he would make them start working with his mind. Then they had to phone up the radio and go, "Oh my God! It works!" And they did. Loads of people phoned up and confirmed that their broken watches were working.
Apparently, if thousands of people get their broken watches out, there's a very good chance that a small percentage of them will start ticking, just from the surprise of being picked up after two decades in a drawer. Those watch owners will then go, "Oh my God! I have to phone the radio!" While everyone else just shrugs and goes, "Ah well, I guess his mind didn't reach my watch on this occasion. I'll not phone up the radio then."

Heat from watchowner's hands make battery reanimate. Watch appear to work. Soon, watch stop again. Curse Gellar!

I'm thinking of getting a pet rant too! Could you please ask your dad how much exercise it requires and what it eats? Thanks.

The whole thing about Jackson's fans getting ready to riot if they don't like the verdict, what are they going to do? Moonwalk at the police and throw their trilbies into the riot shields?
Posted by New Way Of Decay (Member # 106) on :
Are you kidding? There's an army of trained monkeys that will rain a shower of chimpspuzz into the court room. Jackson will ride it like the silver surfer. It's called a moonwalk because he does it over a pale white surface.

I forgot to mention that he'll ride this tidal wave of Spunkey-Monk to freedom. FREEDOM.
Posted by Benny the Ball (Member # 694) on :
Or he'll turn into a robot, re-animate the Elephant Man as a skeli-warrior like Ray Harryhausen, and fight his way out, floating off into the sunset on a camera crane...
