Speaking of such shows, I know someone who applied to be in the audience for the lamentable Kilroy! show. The audience and trailer trash "guests" were positively plied with booze, to get the rancour and shouty crackers atmosphere flowing.Comment

My old auntie had a few I can remember:
If they are talking behind your back, they are talking to your arse.
They may be as good as you, but no better!
What is for you, will never pass you by!
My dad had a good one:

he was a wise man my old dad...RIP!"If you can read this, thank a teacher....and since it's in English, thank a soldier"Comment
