Some Stuff

Tim Ireland, the man who got the first MP blogging, successfully campaigned for email access to the prime minister and all-round good egg has officially returned to blogdom, if not yet to activism.

I have of late, wherefore I know not, been enjoying listening to xfm’s Ricky Gervais and Steve Merchant archives. The pair, who wrote The Office, used to have a weekly slot on the station and many of the shows have been made available online.

If you’re between the ages of 12 and 25 and want to grow taller, this company claims to have just the thing. It is a “all-natural combination of vitamin, minerals and amino acids” that will make you grow 10-25% faster than you otherwise would. Oh, and it’s complete bollocks, of course. If you’re going to set up a scam, you could at least make it convincing.

This product works for adolescents and young adults between the ages of 12 and 25 only. We could easily say that this product is for everyone in an attempt to sell more of it, but that would be a disservice to you, and tarnish our outstanding reputation.

Well, Heightmax, that outstanding reputation of yours might be slightly compromised by your answers on the FAQ page:

Yes, you can take HeightMax if you are under 12 years old. You will simply take half the dosages required for adults and you will be fine.
Some of our customers have used HeightMax well past their 26th or 27th birthdays. HeightMax has proven to be very effective in keeping their body in good shape and some even reported mild height increases in those years.

Finally, I read in a Simon Hoggart sketch, that David Blunkett (the British home secretary, who happens to be blind) said something slightly bizarre in the house of commons on Monday:

I’ve almost forgotten what he looks like.
—Blunkett, of David Davis, who had been away for two weeks
