Welsh Bardd, Irish Bard): (1) An ancient Celtic poet, singer and
harpist who recited heroic poems by memory. These bards were the oral
historians, political critics, eulogizers, and entertainers of their
ancient societies. They were responsible for celebrating national
events such as heroic actions and victories. (2) The word in modern
usage has become a synonym for any poet. Shakespeare in particular is
often referred to as the Bard or the Bard of Avon in spite of the fact
he wrote in the Renaissance, long after the heyday of Celtic bards.
The modern day has seen a sort of revival of bardic performance since
1822, when the ancient bardic performance contests were revived in
Wales. These contests are called in Welsh Eisteddfodau (singular
Eisteddfod). In modern Welsh, the term bardd refers to any participant
who has competed in an Eisteddfod.

Hardline Honeyz <<
The Popbitch Guide to Tasty Terrorists
1. Antar Zouabri, GIA leader 1996-2002
Tall, dark and handsome, this Algerian terrorist
sent shivers through all the girls, mainly
because of his habit of kidnapping, raping and
then killing them. A former chicken farmer, Antar
was somewhat unsentimental about humans. He
decided that everyone in Algeria was
insufficiently Muslim, so they had to die. Only
he and his tiny band of psychos would be allowed
to survive. Sadly for fans of Hardline Honeyz,
but luckily for Algeria, sexy Antar was killed in
a gun battle with security forces in Feb 2002.
"Do Blue Steel, Antar":
http://www.tkb.org/documents/Members/MEM22_zouabri.jpg
(FYI: More tasty terrorists - watch The Power of
Nightmares, starting Wed 20th October, BBC2, 9pm.)

Puffy is looking for a new butler. He says he's keen

Ken: the album <<
The inevitable compilation
The music industry is alive with rumours
of a tribute album for tragic Ken Bigley.
The tracklisting is as follows:
Ferry Cross The Mersey - Gerry and the Pacemakers
One Night In Bangkok - Murray Head
Can't Buy Me Love - Beatles
Rock The Casbah - The Clash
Money Money Money - Abba
Caught Out There - Kelis
Let Me Go - Rancid
Pretty Tied Up - Guns N' Roses
Luck of the Irish - Lennon/Ono
Theme from The Great Escape - Elmer Bernstein
Back For Good - Take That
First Cut Is The Deepest - Cat Stevens
Oops Upside Your Head - Gap Band
The Head On The Door - The Cure
Bonus track -
Can't Stop This Thing We Started - Bryan Adams

Julia Tatu's baby is called Vika Volkova.
(Obviously preparing for life as a Bond baddie...)
-----------------------------------------------------
Polaris nukes turkey-neck <<
Age-cheating witches embrace the laser
Now Botox has gone high street, celebrities
are turning to Polaris. A high-intensity
laser which tightens "skin laxity", it's
particularly good for those places where
Botox doesn't work, like the neck.
Our surgery spy tells us Kylie and Dannii,
Sadie Frost and Meg Mathews are all
among the early adopters.
So watch out for celeb ladies with redness
around the throat, as the treatment sometimes
takes a few days to die down. Luckily neck
scarves are fashionable this winter.
(FYI: New plastic surgery jargon -
Starlet Spec-Tits - actresses who get implants

Destiny's Child are refusing to let Beyonce be
photographed in the middle of the trio for all
press for their new album.
-----------------------------------------------------
Big Questions <<
What people are asking this week
Which US rap star do ladies love, but is
just about to move his male lover into his
apartment?
Which UK TV home improvement show expert likes
to pick up men in gay saunas but only goes
for foreign boys who don't speak much
English, so they'll be unable to out him?
-----------------------------------------------------
Darren Hayes bought an apartment last weekend in the
same building as the Olsen Twins and Monica Lewinsky
in Greenwich Village/Westside Highway area of NYC.
-----------------------------------------------------
RIP: Christopher Reeve jokes <<
Yes, we're going straight to hell
Now that Christopher Reeve is dead, it is also
time to say goodbye to the Christopher Reeve
jokes. So, for the last time:
Q: Which actor does Christopher Reeve most
want to be?
A: Christopher Walken.
Q: What's the difference between Christopher
Reeve and O.J. Simpson?
A: Christopher Reeve got the electric chair.
Q: What's black and sits at the top of the stairs?
A: Christopher Reeve in a house fire.
How to impress girls at your next party:
Place a dollar bill under your chin. With your
arms held stiffly at your sides yell out, "Hey
everybody, look at me! I'm Christopher Reeve
at a titty bar."
Q: What's got bright red underpants and flies.
A: Christopher Reeve.
Q: Why didn't Superman save the hostages in Iraq?
A: Because he's dead, and before that he was
in a wheelchair.

A girl who went to David Walliams' house to have

Pawn Star <<
Mel B: more stupid than Moss
Poor Mel B. Her career over, all her
money taken by Jimmy Gulzar... you would
almost feel sorry for her, were it not
for the fact that she is such a vile cow.
A dinner guest at Mel B's mansion during
happier times reported that Mel had a
giant ornately-carved gold and wood chess
set in her living room.
While coming back from the toilet, the
guest spotted Mel's dog humping and
chewing one of the pawns.
"Don't worry,” said Mel. “It's only one
of the little pieces. I've got 16 of those."
-----------------------------------------------------
Snow Patrol's US tour manager is called Derek Fudge.
-----------------------------------------------------
The lion sleeps tonight... <<
Then is killed by giant gorilla-chimps
Scientists believe they have discovered a new
species of giant ape in the jungles of the Congo
which could be the result of gorillas mating
with chimpanzees. The apes have large black
faces and nest on the ground like gorillas but
eat mainly fruit, like chimps. Local villagers
say the two metre tall apes are so ferocious
they're capable of killing lions.
-----------------------------------------------------
Atlantic MD Korda Marshall (who signed Take That and
The Darkness) is tipped to be about to take over as
big boss of the new Warner Bros Records.
-----------------------------------------------------
More, More, More money, please <<
Rachel's team replaced by minions
Thanks to the efforts of 19 Management
and the breast-fixation of mens’ magazines,
Rachel Stevens remains the most heavily-
hyped artist in the UK.
But in reality she's making no money for her
record label. As a cost-cutting measure, they
recently had to let go her stylist, hairdresser
and choreographer, and then hire their
assistants to do the same job at a cheaper rate.
-----------------------------------------------------
A British embassy staffer who had to deal with
Elton's tantrums in Taiwan confirms that the
name on his passport is now...Elton Hercules John.
-----------------------------------------------------
Muezzin sings the blues <<
God is great, and so is BB King
Cairo is in uproar over plans to link up
all their mosques with wi-fi, so that there
is one call to prayer, rather than hundreds
of different ones.
At the same time, the no-fun hardliners in Saudi
Arabia want to force muezzins to sing in flat
monotones, rather than anything too “musical”.
The first muezzin was a black man, a former
slave called Bilal. Some music scholars argue
that the muezzin’s call to prayer is the root of
what eventually became the blues, thanks to the
mass migration of West African muslims to
southern states of America through slavery.
Muslims started the blues, honestly:

Nas is releasing a brilliant rap-blues track,
Bridging the Gap, with his Dad, jazz musician Olu
Dara. And Nas has a brother called ... Jungle.

Tales of Circus Folk <<
Siegried and Roy get Smart
SM writes:
"A couple of years ago I was lucky enough to be
a judge at the World Poledancing Championships,
in Ealing. On the judging panel was silver-
haired Billy Smart, Britain's most famous
former circus proprietor.
"’Have you ever been to Las Vegas?" he asked
me as we watched the pole action. ‘Wonderful
city. You should go and see Siegfied and
Roy's show. It's marvellous.' Mr Smart then
paused for dramatic effect...'Matter of fact,"
he said, casually. 'I sold Siegfried an
elephant last week.'"
(FYI: Siegfried and Roy's compound was shot at in
a drive-by last week. A former Oakland Raiders
player Cole Ford the chief suspect. Ford is on
the run and described as "armed and dangerous.")
-----------------------------------------------------
Latest London celebrity-endorsed hotel is the
Holiday Inn, Mayfair. Both Bryan McFadden and
Delta Goodrem chose to stay there this week.
-----------------------------------------------------
Things to make you go hmmn <<
Lions, horses, bulls, penises
Nicky Hilton turns 21 this weekend, and is
celebrating with a trip to Las Vegas, naturally.
She and Nicole Richie were paid $15,000 to "DJ"
at American Express's launch of their New York
centric credit card last week. Which meant
they stood next to Mark Ronson while he
mixed the tunes.
Some lonely geek reviews his sex with a hooker:

Christmas for the Froth of July
One of America¹s most talented and funny radio personalities in the 1950s
was a beer drinker. Rege Cordic proved this every morning in Pittsburgh, PA.
This pioneering genius of the theatre for the mind loved a good spoof and
created a once non-existent brew known as Olde Frothingslosh.
In the beginning, this fictitious beer was just that. But thousands of
Pittsburghers began to search for the "pale stale ale with the foam on the
bottom." Retailers and tavern owners were inundated with requests for this
brew. Finally, under great pressure, radio station KDKA joined with the
Pittsburgh Brewing Co. in 1954 and released a small run of this beer.
Naturally, it was huge success.
It was decided that Olde Frothingslosh would be released each year during
the Christmas Season. At first the bottles were filled with Pittsburgh¹s Tech
brand. Eventually, the flagship Iron City brand became the liquid of choice.
Each year a different radio campaign was created and labels were designed to
coincide with the audio theme.
The characters in this spoof included Sir Rege Frothingslosh, the founder.
He was said to bathe in the beer. Because the foam was on the bottom, he
likened it to a feather bed.
Slogans and tag lines ran the full gamut. Oh my gosh, it¹s Olde
Frothingslosh. A whale of an ale for the pale stale male. Brewed from the
muddy waters of Upper Crudney on the Thames, just down river from the glue
factory. The castle-like brewery was built in record time; they worked
knights. Hippety Hops makes it Tops. Hi dittom dottom, the foam is on the
bottom. Pittsburgh¹s favorite josh. Real busto. It¹s flexible, guaranteed to
fit any shape glass. Neurotically inspected, brewed with the exclusive Dank
Tank formula. Sold only once a year! One taste will tell you why! Brewed with
just the kiss of the mops.
This beer was a punster¹s dream.
In 1969, a beauty contest was held to crown a Miss Olde Frothingslosh. The
big winner was Fatima Yechburgh. The various Olde Frothingslosh cans issued
over the years have chronicled her life, as follows.
This winning contestant was from a small town outside of Pittsburgh. It is
considerably smaller since she left. She was chosen on the basis of beauty,
talent, poise and quantity. She¹s the girl all others look down on. Her
formula for success is "Think Big." Her occupation is listed as trapeze
artist, and education has her studying arc welding at night. She reads comic
books, racing forms, cereal boxes and other good stuff. Her hobbies include
soap carving, arm wrestling, sky diving and ballet.
Miss Olde Frothingslosh became quite the celebrity around Pittsburgh. Events
like ribbon cuttings, parades and sidewalk unveilings were right up her
alley.
Marsha Majors was her real name. In the spring of 2000, the woman with the
big heart left us. As a tribute to her years of service, Pittsburgh Brewing
Co. donated the money for her headstone.
About every five years, Pittsburgh Brewing re-releases this Steel City
classic.
Beer Dave Gausepohl has collected breweriana since 1974 and has a personal
collection of over 400,000 items. He has visited over 1,000 breweries and
tasted well over 10,000 different brews from the world over.
