If you have bad AIDS you can cure yourself by catching good AIDS, but not vice versa. I don't know what happens, to you. If you do have good AIDS and, then, catch bad AIDS. I've heard it's very very bad. Terrible, in fact.

Gives you incurable hiccups & kills you. That's how terrible it is, I should know having had it twice now.

In his will, William Mcgonagall gifted half of all future publishing income to Hibernian FC who have been benefiting from bad poetry since his death in 1902.

Therefore, despite winning the Scottish Cup that season, Hibs have been knocked out of every SC tournament since accepting the supposedly cursed payments.

Ye'al hear nae fibs

I broke a thousand nibs

Rhyming words wi Hibs

Noo ya money ye shalt gibs

Or ah'l break yer feckin ribs

This inscription is on the back of McGonagall's gravestone just 6 stones down from GreyF's Bobby's. On the back of GFB's stone it's inscribed "FFS mon throw it".

Famous newsreader Trevor McDonald, pioneered the use of a slightly out-of-focus autocue whenever a serious story was being presented.  This "squint" gave him the appearance of being a very caring newsreader and ensured he could increase the rates he charged for public appearances such as opening shops and village fetes etc

The 'Malibu' nightclub in GTA Vice City was based on (the now defunct) Flicks in Brechin.

Which was owned by local livestock entrepreneur Trevor McFrancis.

 

There's lots of similar 'easter eggs' in the GTA franchise, I'm sure others will list some.

Rangers' alternative lion rampant crest is one of the world's most expensive (and over budget) logo designs, gradually costing a modern day equivalent of £1.4 million through contract art designers.

In the end, it was a Partick Thistle fan at the Glasgow School of Art who came up with the favoured design, which the student sold for £600, later to be bought as part of a £1 deal.

Scottish Haggis is banned by the Americans because they are trying to breed their own in captivity in Area 51

I used to work next door in Area 49 & one day whilst outside on a fag break an American dressed in fatigues & a helmet was round our place with a tray bake & a secret substance (yanki-haggis) & they used us like common beagles & fed us it, we all loved it, living proof they have successfully bred their own haggis but the problem is it tastes nice, so they have to start again.

The lane markings on the A96 were painted by Banksy, whilst Pope John Paul was said to have named the A9 as the most fun road he'd ever been on in the Pope-mobile.

It was the pope that 1st used the term M9, we are not sure if it was fat-finger syndrome (the ladies love it) or he was the coolest cunto going?

The Bishop of Bradford was the recipient of said term. He's now lege in the Roman Catholic echelons, twice is big as Jesus according to the latest Vati-Poll. Which is some big feat. He's a pal of VT & buggered Reynard or was it the other way round?

You seem to be confused

It was coined by the pope but it was pope sergius IV on his elevation to the papacy in 1009 AD it is originally a pun on the year (M from Roman numerals 9 from the new dangled Arabic numerals) as well as the Latin "Eminens" (the correct form of address for a cardinal)

It has been used in informal communication between pontiffs and their friends in the college of cardinals for a millennium. Like most informal terms of address it indicated amiability and friendship.

Use spread slowly down the Vatican hierarchy (Richelieu used it in a letter to the bishop of Perigaux) and eventually with modern communications it seems to have reached the wider world.

Or it could be a coincidence

You've no proof & you know that God is watching you in his omnipresent way.

Whereas VT can back me up although if it were he that was buggered by the Bish then he probably won't come forth with the confirmation.

God not only does omniscient looks btw, when he's bored he likes to dress up as Marilyn Munroe & likes to do that famous scene where her dress blows up to show her knickers but obviously cos God is so big he has to create a tornado to make the dress reveal his knickers.

So every time you hear about a tornado ripping the shit out of everything in its path, think on that's God that doing his Marilyn routine. His Grucho impressions are absolute shite but no one's got the baws to tell him.

Henry Ford was black.

 

He was actually born 'Henry Black'. It wasn't until his parents divorced that he changed to his mother's maiden name.

 

Probably for the best considering the furor had his company released the 'Black Escort', 'Black Cougar' and 'Black Willy'.

I've never seen Henry Fords Willy, black or otherwise, are you sure you are on the right forum?
