So long Mike, you loser

What great news last weekend, to hear the overlong boxing career of Mike "the biter" Tyson is finally over. Hoo-bloody-ray!

And good on Kev McBride for smacking Mike onto his arse at the end of the bout. Nice one.

The guy was a cheat and a rapist. What's more, he even tried to cheat during the McBride fight, using head-butts and other dirty tactics.

Worried that I might be alone in this opinion, I did a Google search, and the first item to appear was "Mike Tyson won't be missed" on the FoxSports site. Haha. Excellent article too.

I'm with Dave Wilcox when he says, "good riddance Mike Tyson"!

No one told me!

Oh, bloody hell. Dave Allen died in March. Nobody told me!

Dave Allen is one of those memories from your childhood that form who you are. Probably explains why I like whisky. I remember watching him on the tele, which means his show must have been shown before my bedtime.

I also remember long rambling jokes, some of which I didn't get, or didn't want to appear to get in front of my parents. There seemed to be a lot of stuff about the Pope too. Funny sketches with the Pope being carried around on a litter or sedia gestatoria through rivers, traffic, small towns, etc.

Screenonline seem to have the best summary about him. I love his comment about potential complaints over his sending up of the Church. "I get more letters about scratching my head or sitting sideways in my chair!"

Must try to find some videos of the guy.

Did you know he was a painter too?
