For Nic - from Rak snr.

The Times
January 10 th, 2007

A seven-year-old boy was at the centre of a courtroom drama yesterday when he challenged a court ruling over whom should have custody of him.

The boy has a history of being beaten by his parents and the judge initially awarded custody to his aunt, in keeping with child custody law and egulations requiring that family unity be maintained to the degree possible.

The boy surprised the court when he proclaimed that his aunt beat him more than his parents and he adamantly refused to live with her.

When the judge then suggested that he live with his grandparents, the boy cried out that they also beat him.
After considering the remainder of the immediate family and learning that domestic violence was apparently a way of life among them, the judge took the unprecedented step of allowing the boy to propose who should have custody of him.

After two recesses to check legal references and confer with child welfare officials, the judge granted temporary custody to Liverpool FC, whom the boy firmly believes are not capable of beating anyone.

Fucking hell, it's quiet around here these days.

So I in hono(u)r of just mistaking Nic for David on the phone, I thought I should post something. Not that I have anything to say, but I can link to a good time-wasting football video on YouTube. Which is your fave?

Also, what's been going on in the Fantasy League recently? I haven't seen anything since I drowned in mid-table obscurity a few months back.

And that just leaves me to say that I'm looking forward to seeing the Arse get a good kicking in the game tomorrow.
