    A new tapestry to spread the good word of Joe so to speak.

    Given the positively subterranean low note that the last thread ended on, the only way is up for this one.

    Surely.......

    I suspect there will be more of it today, I was in San Diego in 2001, not on a J1 mind you or in the right city but still have more connections than half the commentators yesterday

    no chance just when you think liveline has hit rock bottom it only turns out to be compacted soil and digging for a deeper low can continue. Joe will have more happy parents on, lads who built apartments in the 40 years ago in new york and he,ll continue to give us his expert quantity surveyors report on why the balcony fell

    I fear he'll have managed to track down one of the parents or a relative of either the dead or the injured students. He'll insert the knife slowly at first, and twist and turn it until it's fully embedded and we actually hear the parent's heart break on the air or we get an avalanche of tears. Then he'll congratulate himself on doing such a "wonderful" job so to speak, amidst the sighs and the "my God"s.

    Sample questions/comments:
    When did you first hear of d'tragedy?
    Were you wurried for your son/daughter?
    How did dat make you feeeeeeeel?
    Can you describe in minute detail the panic, fear and the eventual pain when you discovered it was your son/daughter?
    Have you lost any udder childers tragically?
    What would you like to say to the men who built dat apartment?
    And have you ever been on de J-WAN yourself?
    Where did you go?
    Did you live in an apartment with a balcony?
    What'll yous do now with de bedroom?


    I won't be giving him the pleasure today however.

    Reckless speculation in all the papers today surmising what might have caused this terrible accident.
    All this before the internationally recognised official liveline investigation has been completed.

    You are a khaki coloured bombardier, it's Hiroshima that you're nearing.

    Did Joe hitch a lift with our National Airline to San Fran to experience people's grief first hand ( unlike asking a taxi driver for his 3rd hand opinion.:) )

    thought the liveline investigation was done and dusted yesterday by CSI Duffy who told us a girder/support had failed

    Maybe Damo will be looking at which forest the wood came from, Californian trees and all the insects that live in wood

    Seems he's going to have Charlie McGettigan on. Charlie lost a son in a building accident in Boston 17 years ago, he was on a J1 at the time.

    Sorry, but I find it all a bit macabre. I'm out already.

    What's the noise I hear ? The wail from Joe that he could have had tears so early into a show.

    Honestly, I hope he isn't. Even he wouldn't stoop that low, would he?
