ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST

Britney must be wondering where all the photographers went.  The Sun gleefully reports today on how 'mad' Gazza was taking off in the back of a van (?), raving (!) and banging his head off the walls last night.  Not just any old head though, but one on which he had 'scrawled' MAD after a psychotic episode - or "meltdown" in Sun terms - involving swearing plastic parrots.  Now I don't want to get all preachy or anything but what the fuck is it about tabloids and mental health?  They love it!  Could you imagine them writing a similar article about someone having cancer?  DYING star CARTED OFF in the back of an ambulance, HYSTERICALLY sobbing and vomiting DISEASED BLOOD.  



I jest.  It wouldn't all be so bloody awful if The Sun then didn't have a little "Gazza: Leave Your Tributes Here" box as if he had died.  And then best of all, their closing line: Gazza's best mate Jimmy Five Bellies Gardner said "I don't know anything".  Well that was worth printing.

Get well soon mate.  Chuck on a nice pair of comedy tits and have a laugh.
