>>>>> WHO OWNS WHAT ON THE WEB...? <<<<<
Remember that photo doing the rounds of the Argentinian football team holding up handbags? As much as we like The Daily Mirror, we were amused to read they entered the photo in the 'What the Papers Say' picture of the year award. Nothing wrong with that you may say... However the 'on the ball' (no pun intended) Guardian newspaper called The Mirror to explain that the image was not 'copyright the Daily Mirror' as printed, because they didn't own the pic. The paper proceeded to change the byline to 'Used by the Daily Mirror based on a photograph copyright Reuters, which appeared on b3ta.com'. And infact, photo-shopped by Carl Baldwin from East London. Tut, tut.

FILM NEWS TWO: Our regular Bond contributor Clive, is frankly a
Bond obsessive. Need proof? Read his review of the 20th Bond movie 'Die
Another Day'. Not here, but on the 'Absolutely James Bond' messageboard.
He's the 10th one down. Codename 'Napoleon Plural'. Need we say more...

>>>>> EVEN MORE RIK WALLER BASHING! <<<<<
Rik Waller quote bashing goes on in the press as well, not just on our T-shirt competition. London's Evening Standard TV Columnist, Victor Lewis-Smith talks about Rik's appearance in Celebrity Fit Club:
"30-stone Rik claimed to have been faithfully following the diet for the past five months, even though all he lost was 20 weeks"
"Clearly the man [referred to as Fats Waller] has a permanent large chip on his shoulder and about 12 large bags of chips permanently inside his enormous paunch"
"What do fat people do in the summer? They Stink"
Oh, the joy that Rik brings us all...

in pints at his local boozer. Massive David Balfour, aged 49, earns himself
234 free pints. David, from Norwich, UK said "I'll have to go some - I
only visit the pub once a fortnight!". We could drink that much in one
evening.

Mark's Crap Joke Corner
--------------------------------
A man came home from work, sat down in his favourite chair, turned on the TV, and said to his wife, "Quick, bring me a beer before it starts." She looked a little puzzled, but brought him a beer.
When he finished it, he said, "Quick, bring me another beer. It's gonna start." This time she looked a little angry, but brought him a beer. When it was gone, he said, "Quick, another beer before it starts."
Well, that was it for her! She blew her top and bellowed: "You lazy selfish pig! You waltz in here, flop your fat backside down, don't even say hello to me and then expect me to run around like your slave. Don't you realise that I cook and clean and wash and iron all day long?"
The husband sighed. "It's started!"
