Footy
Its great that the football season is back. Even better that Falkirk are now in the SPL, and today we face Celtic at Parkhead.
Having played Inverness and Livingston in our first two games, this is the game that says welcome to the SPL for real.
This is what we want!!!! Come on you Bairns.

Tip for the day
Though I would add atip for the day every so often
If you're being chased by a police dog, try not to go through a tunnel, then on to a little seesaw, then jump through a hoop of fire as they're trained for that.

Kettles have special powers......
My kids have been brought up watching a kids entertainers group called The Singing Kettle. This group have spent many a year convincing the children of Scotland that kettles have magical mystical powers.
It would seem someone in Malaysia has seen their videos and took the concept one step further

The Sky Kingdom sect is noted for building a giant teapot to symbolise its belief in the healing purity of water, and also the healing powers of kettles.

State religious authorities have outlawed the teapot sect as a deviant cult.
Clearly they are all bonkers

Red lipstick for Tony?
Todays papers are reporting that Tony Blair has spent more than £1800 on make up since coming into power.
Most unlike Tony to be accused of any kind of cover up let alone one for his face!
No doubt once Tony is ejected from office we can look forward to his own line of makeup for men. Fake tan to be top of the list no doubt

Scotty dies

BBC report
Very sad news, Doohans character of Scotty was my favourite from the original series of Star Trek.
The writers got the Scottish persona spot on and Doohans accent was (for a Canadian) excellent. One of my favourite quotes from Scotty is below:
Kirk: How much refit time until we can take her out again?
Scott: Eight weeks, sir. But you don't have eight weeks, so I'll do it for you in 2.
Kirk: Mr. Scott, have you always multiplied your repair estimates by 4?
Scott: Certainly, sir. How else can I keep my reputation as a miracle worker?
