Y'know, football violence is almost an urban myth. I think it's over a year
since I heard of an incident. Amongst the spectators, that is.

We had a nice one today. One of the Scottish universities has completed a
study of road accidents. If a pedestrian is killed by a car in Scotland, the
pedestrian is likely to have a higher alcohol level than the car's driver. One
in three Scottish pedestrians killed on the roads is over the drunk driving
limit.
And it's a long time since we had bear baiting - most of the good subjects have
gone. Windows has definitely trounced OS/2, and Audis are obviously far
superior vehicles to ovloVs and WMBs ...
