Sword Swallower

Ouch...

But when a heated argument broke out between the two men in the early hours of the morning, Gallear lost his temper, grabbed a samurai sword which was on display in a lounge cabinet and forced it into Mr Knight's mouth.

Then, after pulling the sword out, Gallear butted Mr Knight in the face and slammed the sword against the lounge door to prevent anyone from leaving. cite


Ouch. It's how you swallow, not what you swallow.

Elvis Presley was Welsh?

How very interesting....


The king of rock and roll Elvis Presley may have been Welsh.

A Cardiff academic has published new evidence that Elvis's ancestors came from the Preseli hills in west Wales.

According to Mr Breverton, his roots are in west Wales - the name Presley is related to Preseli - a hill range in Pembrokeshire.

"The family names mentioned bear out as being Welsh.


The astonishing resemblance of the names Presley and Preseli is conclusive enough, but that is not all. Recent research at Aberystwyth has revealed that, if Calon Lân and Jailhouse Rock are sung in the same key, a large number of the same notes occur in both. A preliminary study of Land of My Fathers and Blue Suede Shoes points in the same direction.

If any doubt still lingers concerning Presley’s Welshness, consider this: the designation Elvis the Pelvis, hitherto thought to refer to the singer’s gyrations when carried away by the hwyl, is now known to be is now known to be a corruption of his original name – Elfys ap Elfys, which not only showed the purity of his Welsh descent but also served as his bardic name in the Tennessee eisteddfodau which nurtured his early talent.


A uh huh...

Personalized Plate: "KickEmBalls"

You know it was a really good game of football when you climb in your silver Landrover pissed out of your minds and drive into the metal railings on the side of the road in Cardiff. But it took Cardiff City striker Ross McCormack to take it to another level when he collided so hard it knocked off a personalized license plate which subsequently led police right to his home.

The £8,000-a-week star was caught when police checks revealed him as the owner.

Police then called at McCormack's luxury home where he admitted being over the limit when he crashed into the fence in his £40,000 car. cite


Why is it, people whom are rich enough to hire a car, are always the first to drive their own cars into things?
