Hello.

This is Impressively-girdled Number 8, Jamie Heaslip modelling the literally box-fresh Irish rugby alternate kit, which was unveiled this morning..

We have two – Yes TWO – of these not-bad-for-a-rugby-top-in-fairness-jerseys to give away. Both signed by the Heaslipinator.

Just finish this sentence:

If I win I intend to give the alternate jersey to my friend {insert name here} because…

Lines close at 2pm

Jamie will be at Life Style Sports, Dundrum, Co Dublin, this Saturday, November 3. The first 10 people in the queue outside will meet Jamie and get a free IRFU alternate jersey, like the one above The next 30 will receive a free rugby ball for Jamie to sign. Details here.

No cash, favours, etc. were given for this post other than the prizes.

Yes.

And sometimes 4 willy.

By damn smooth hipster Alex Towers who sez:

I was waiting for a friend at the top of O’Connell Street [Dublin] and noticed how hectic the place is (buses, birds, biddies etc). But amid the all the fever the O’Connell monument in the middle was the one constant, a massive hunk of steely stoicism…I had this idea of combining lots of different photos taken from different spots and pasting them together to make a big hectic ‘panorama-collage’ (Panallage? Collorama?).

Dublin’s ‘Millennium’ 1988.

Barmy, historically dubious, early version of ‘Your Country Your Call/The Gathering-style marketing hoo ha.

I submit Dublin’s ‘Aluminium’ 1988. They literally made stuff up.

 

Don’t ask now for whom the bell rings,
When the puppeteers find that the strings,
Are ripped from their hands,
By the devious commands,
Of the men who still think they’re our kings.

9NEWS viewer Elizabeth Evans said she and her daughter, Abigael, were listening to NPR on a trip to the grocery store Tuesday when she started tearing up.

The mother asked Abigael why she was crying and she responded, “I’m tired of Bronco Bamma and Mitt Romney.”

Dammit, she’s sayin’ what we’re all thinkin’.
