If you haven&#8217;t yet seen this, you should see this IMMEDIATELY.<\/p>\n<p>What is this, this thing I am talking of?<\/p>\n<p>Why: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.funnyordie.co.uk\/videos\/4d3b45d547\/mika-vs-david-brent\">this<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p><b>11th Lev&#8217;s Stag Do &#8211; Starter Evening<\/b><br \/>\nI can&#8217;t play poker for toffee, or chips, or anything for that matter.  However, I do have the ability to find Guinness-branded playing cards very funny, purely due to such awesome images as this on the royal cards:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.neonsign.com\/eng_mirrors\/images\/guinnessostrichmirror.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>For some reason RTJ and myself found the earnest repetition of &#8220;My Goodness.  My Guinness!&#8221; one of the funniest things in the world that evening.<\/p>\n<p>We <i>may<\/i> have been drinking.<\/p>\n<p><b>12th Lev&#8217;s Stag Do &#8211; The Main Event!<\/b><br \/>\nWhat a mental, beery, awesome day.  Thanks all for coming!  STAAAAAAAAAAAAAG.<\/p>\n<p><b>13th Oh, Go On Then&#8230;<\/b><br \/>\nToday, in my slightly hungover state, I decided to reinstate Squage Party.  It&#8217;s back in October (exact date TBC) and will be only an hour long &#8211; but it&#8217;s back none the less, and will be every week this time.  Wooh!  If you want to Stay Informed, send an email to <i>party at squage dot com<\/i> requesting such a thing &#8211; or trundle to (and join) the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/group.php?gid=21743985788\">Facebook Group<\/a>.  A proper web site will be made soon, I promise!<\/p>\n<p><b>14th Kanye West is a Tool<\/b><br \/>\nI liked his first two albums.  Then I saw him on some TV shows.  Now I&#8217;ve <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=LqTlRgTvsfw\">seen him do this to Taylor Swift<\/a>.  He&#8217;s going to have to release something pretty frigging amazing to make me buy any more of his stuff.  Mind you, he <i>is<\/i> the self-proclaimed Son of God, so I guess it&#8217;ll be pretty damned awesome.  Hmm, &#8220;damned&#8221; is probably the wrong word to use in describing the work of the Son of God.  Er&#8230; can we say &#8220;probably fictional&#8221;?  Can I get away with that?  No?  Damn. ;-)<\/p>\n<p><b>15th RIP Patrick<\/b><br \/>\nSad day, today.  Patrick Swayze has passed away, finally losing his 20 month battle with pancreatic cancer.  You were a legend, sir.
