Things I learned today (Part 1)

I’ve just read the thread back … is this Eoghan Murphy we are on about?

He was cheated methinks

Tis a bad aul bit of gossip @treatystones @flattythehurdler @tank @Bandage

Ye would be better off without it.

Thanks mate.
Watched that john Grisham thing on Netflix a while back. One line stuck with me from a state prosecute iirc, which went something like.
“I don’t believe execution brings closure to anyone. It doesn’t bring closure to the victims, nor their families. Why would a family member watch it? There is no closure, just another memory you don’t want”

Correctamundo. Eoghan’s grandad dabbled a little in magic and illusions. He passed his days as an accountant but he made punts vanish (permanently) and managed to give the impression that he was somewhat of a fiscal genius.

Gay Byrne, Gilesy and Hugh Leonard among others were part of the act for a while. They provided the ingredients for the stage show.

Eoghan’s is following in his footsteps somewhat. He’s telling us he’s on top of things but it doesn’t seem so to me. He could I’d imagine make a house disappear though.

A government body which teaches teachers to teach has nicked one of our ideas and is promoting it to teachers around the country. I’m immensely proud.

Tokens?

That’s a cracker.

Nits won’t live on a male who is passed adolescence.

at what age do the nits deem a male to be passed adolescence, judging by some of the cunts on here, a fella could be well into his 50’s and still be in it

Puberty. It’s a hormonal thing I believe.

My father used get them but he always blamed milking the cows.

There is a whiff of “sing the song you sang at your mothers wedding” off that
