The following passage is the beginning of weekly updates from my new and as yet untitled novel.

Comments and suggestions are welcome.




"I vote that we move to the theme of violence"cried a gentleman with a balding head, a full beard and brown coloured ale congealing at the corners of his mouth, "yes" replied the gentlemen sitting around the table almost in unison, some bashing their fists upon the table. While their elbows desperately sought the space between the oversized schooners of beer, empty shot glasses, box like ash tray overflowing with smoldering cigarette butts, paper and beer mats. They gulped down the ale as if this was to be their last drop but the night had many hours left to go. This moment in alcohol fuelled revelry was ultimately to be their downfall. Each of the 8 men's doom. To some this would forge an almost unavoidable groove towards swift and total annihilation. To others the end would take a far more long and distressing road.

This was the beginning.

Hell Awaits

Heavy metal 'a comfort for the bright child'

Intelligent teenagers often listen to heavy metal music to cope with the pressures associated with being talented, according to research.

The results of a study of more than 1,000 of the brightest five per cent of young people will come as relief to parents whose offspring, usually long-haired, are devotees of Iron Maiden, AC/DC and their musical descendants.

Researchers found that, far from being a sign of delinquency and poor academic ability, many adolescent "metalheads" are extremely bright and often use the music to help them deal with the stresses and strains of being gifted social outsiders.

The 'Final Solution'

No need to thank me just yet, but I've done it. Yes, that's right, I've found a solution to all the world's political problems, a way of solving the current malaise that afflicts the Middle East especially.

We have seen pro wrestlers become politicians in America and Japan, but what about going in the other direction? Politicos getting into the ring for some 'Smackdown' action. If Americans elected their representatives based on wrestling abilities alone, then we'd half nelson half of the political conflicts we have in the world today.

Wait a minute, you are probably thinking, what does this have to do with world conflict? Well, I will explain - each nation should have a champion, who is a wrestler and a leader, hopefully democratically elected, who will enter the ring and face off against his adversary from the opposing nation (WWE rules apply) to sort out any political gripes or impasses. The wrestling matches would also replace armed conflict and struggle, just mano-a-mano, one nation's champion versus another. So, we could have George W and Tony Blair going up, tag-team style, against Kim Jong-Il and Ahmadinejad. If it were a multi-lateral problem, then a 'Royal Rumble' would suffice.

The UN, of course, would become the UNWF and all fights would be under the auspices of that organisation. I think it could be a beautiful thing.

The Great Sasuke, a wrestling legend, is running for a gubernatorial race in Japan, and he refuses to take off his wrestling mask, despite being a legislative member of the provincial assembly. Therefore, he unquestionably would have my vote, if I lived in that Japanese province, and if Bertie Ahern or Enda Kenny (my personal preference would be for Mary Harney as she fell off the ugly tree) decided to wear wrestling masks, then I would pay attention to them and place greater significance on their words.

No Harm Looking

If you get the chance watch the show (The Great Global Warming Swindle).

Yes some of it is a little OTT but it does have interesting and valid points that i think would at times need a little further investigation. Nonetheless people could do with hearing what is said, and it might sway people off a direct one truth agenda.
