    His greatest gift was that he never lost the plot and told one of these fawning muppets to f**k off.. That was a real gift Philip...

    I think this should be a day of mourning, and we should all be allowed go home to the pub to mourn the death of a salesman poet.

    This! I lasted almost 15 minutes, and when yer wan started blubbing about the poem about Marie (I think, was trying very hard not to listen) I had to switch off. But as I did, I thought "imagine if Joe was at the mic......" :eek:

    Are they still on the dead poet, or has normal service resumed? I'm afraid to switch on again.....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,718 ✭✭✭✭JonathanAnon


    He cooked a great omelet, Philip....

    Id go away for some tea first if I were you.

    Edit: I think thats the end of the segment.

    Joe would have gotten the day out of it.

    Correct, Joe would be the first recorded case of a male having multiple orgasms due to the topics discussed......death, poetry and a cultural icon

    It really hit him as the taxi collected him to bring him to his permanent, high paid job in RTE :D:D

    (sorry philip, I do like you :) )

    This thread certainly has its uses! Can't believe they didn't knock the entire programme and half of Monday's out of it.

    Sounds like back to everyday misery - emigration - am I right? Or is this M. Lynn related???


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,829 ✭✭✭✭Dan Jaman


    Well, thank feck PBH knows how to keep things in their place - I was seriously expecting the whole afternoon devoted to a dead poet.

    Why is he lauging at the idea of a foreign broadcast journo? Yer man who's doing Playback at the moment, and sometimes produces Mooney (I'm not even going to begin to try to spell his name) does alright here!

    What's this fella's point (genuine question) :confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,718 ✭✭✭✭JonathanAnon


    Wouldnt like to get stuck on a flight to Colombia with this lad.... Him ringing in has nothing to do with Philip's emigration and everything to do with his self promotion...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,829 ✭✭✭✭Dan Jaman


    "Wrong-way Corrigan".
    Well, it's the right way for some and I have nothing against that.

    Your absolutely right, fawning muppets and politicians over the next few days is going to be overbearing.
    I had the pleasure of meeting Seamus Heaney once on a boat, still stays with me, I hope the sods of turf lay gently on his soul, we'll never see his like again, a very human natural person full of goodness.
    May he rest in peace.

    That emmigration isn't so bad. Or more a case of "Emmigration wasn't painful for me and therefore it shouldnt be for other people"

    Well fair play to him, and I agree wholeheartedly. I have no doubt some people are forced abroad against their will, but young wans just out of college should look on it as an adventure, the world is a much smaller place than when I went abroad (voluntarily) after college and it was a huge adventure then - all depends on your perspective a lot of the time.

    Oh, I'm going to be grumpy by the end of this programme, I can tell - I've only just woken up and LL is not a good introduction to the day :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43,038 ✭✭✭✭SEPT 23 1989


    how did he get his big head into the plane thats what i would like to know?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 34 RTE Fan


    That Brendan guy sounded like a ****


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 32,437 ✭✭✭✭HeidiHeidi


    This has been the case for years.... and at Heathrow from memory..... what's his problem :confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 32,437 ✭✭✭✭HeidiHeidi


    But but but.... how do they know you're ENTITLED to be in that queue!

    Jesus, do some people go around the place looking for arguments? (I know the answer to that)

    Well we need to agree which demographic we are talking about. Young wans just out of college are different to people like myself who have established lives and relationship but are faced with emmigration or the dole.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,833 ✭✭✭✭ThisRegard


    What's with the glut of people lately who sound as if they're reading from a script ?

    The Brits have a policy of being on top all the time ?! Serious chip on his shoulder.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,966 ✭✭✭✭syklops


    Jesus, how not to visit the UK.

    Oh absolutely, I refer to you to the first line of my post! But it's not a blanket disaster either.

    In the meantime, the REAL problems of the world are now being dealt with - Mr. Paranoia is losing the run of himself here. Playing games with "The Brits" is not something I'd indulge in if I wanted to get into England!
