I'm hot and so are Bono and wild garlic pesto



Got a call on Saturday from my Da saying 'Your Shigsnix (he can never pronounce it) is in the Times'. Then I received two texts from other heads saying the same. Went down the shops, bought it, found the mention and dropped in on the floor with the rest of my crap.

Happy to be included in the Irish Times, seems like their 'whats hot and whats not' is widely read, everyone loves bullet point nugget sized stuff like that. It was only last night that I actually read what I've been lumped in with; Blossoming Magnolias, tax free shoes in New York, wild garlic pesto and Bono.

Don't get me wrong, I'm flattered and greatly appreciative of the shout out but I can't help feeling whatever approval I've earned or has been allocated is diminished by the fact that I'm nestled between wild garlic pesto and tax free shoes.

As for that Bono chap, jesus christ I hope this is the last list we share. Maybe I'd make an exception with the list of 'Annoying phoney Cunts who've had poles fed through their neck by bitter comic artists from Tallaght'

I wonder if I'll rank first in google for wild garlic pesto after mentioning wild garlic pesto several
times.

bob byrne and bono are one and the same. The edge spilt water on bono one night and little talented fuckers like the bb2 popped out all over the shop. Remember the mogwai? Litte gizmo All saintly and cute? And then the mac daddy of the gremlins? And the way they so hated each other but you knew they were one and the same? As far as i'm concerned whatever bono had (and i emphasise had) this bob fucker has as well only its the 21st century flahvour. Its all good mon frere. Roll on the days when bob and bertie and bono are on the tele telling us that the time has come to inject ourselves with barcodes are something. You heard it here first....
