Broccoli wins 'best gag' title at Edinburgh fringe
festival (news item). Possibly because it makes
people gag quicker than any other veg?...
***********************************************************
(The winning joke: 'I keep randomly shouting out "broccoli" and
"cauliflower" - I think I might have florets'. Comedian: Olaf Falafel.
And he's a Swede! - that's probably funnier than the joke itself!)

Corbyn: "I'll be the new Thatcher" (news item).
Talk about an apocalipstick vision of the future!...

Who doesn't like a 3-liner? (Quite a few of you don't, apparently.) Well, I'll have you know that many a critic has said of my work "at least it's in English" - and as for the great Stephen Fry, he once said of me "Vincent who?" Let's just say I supply the litter to the litterati [sic - but only at times] - ie: I write rubbish. But rubbish mostly inspired by the HAIKU, the 17th Century Japanese verse form consisting of 3 lines and 17 (5-7-5) syllables. (WARNING: flash photography and limericks)
