Gary Glitter
|
|
What can One say about this man? There is no need to look for evidence because the staff at PC City found it. Gary Glitter was what was known as a "Glam Rock" 'musician' in the 1980's. Last year, his computer was found to contain pictures of kids doing stuff that they shouldn't, and I don't mean shoplifting. He was convicted and served three months in jail and is now rumoured to be leaving the UK. Watch out! He might be coming to live in your country.

Darts was once an unglamourous, unfashionable sport, played by fat men smoking tabs and drinking sauce in a pub. Then this man stepped up the the oche. Rejecting conventional darts protocol, he called himself, "The Viking" and appropriately pillaged (but not raped) his opponents on the oche. If you ask anyone in England who the greatest darts player was, they will probably say Bristow. They are probably right. Andy will never be forgotton, although it must be pointed out, he is still alive. This entire page is devoted to him.

Rod Hull

This man is a GENIUS. Actually, WAS a genius. When Rod Hull first stuck his hand up the bottom of a stuffed Emu in 1982, he was lambasted by the British public as the living embodiment of a genetic malfunction. Just two years later, he had his own TV show (Pink Windmill), a fanbase of millions and the world at his feet. By injecting the stuffed Emu with lashings of bad attitude, he turned a piece of multicoloured polyester into the biggest star Britain had ever known since Mick Jagger. Thomas Edison might have invented the light bulb, but could he do that? - I doubt it. His status as Britain's number one Emu puppeteer seemed unassailable. But the dream turned sour. Ironically, in the end it was Emu himself that pushed Hull over the edge (not literally). Emu's attitude became increasingly aggressive as Hull tried to compete with a green Mariyln Mansonesque witch called Grotbags who was slowly stealing the show away from him. Rod didn't know where to turn and in a desperate attempt to regain credibiltiy, he went on a late night youth show called 'The Word' Emu attacked LA gangster rapper Snoop Doggy Dog for reading a porno mag on the show. The Children TV execs brought the axe down the next day. Hull was a broken man and such was his expensive lifestyle, that he was declared bankrupt 5 minutes later. Rod lived the rest of his life under a cloud of shame and fear from reprisal by Westcoast gangs seeking retribution for Snoop Doggy Dogs humiliation. It was thought that Puff Daddy's assasination was a mistaken attempt on Hull's life. God knows how they got it so wrong but thats the rumour - perhaps an illustration of the enormous amounts of drugs those people take. Rod refused to let baliffs reclaim his house but sacrificed Emu at a car boot sale in the village of Northbroom in Doncaster. Sadly, whilst trying to watch Manchester United play Scarborough on TV in the Worthington Cup, Rod fell to his death adjusting the aerial on his roof. This website is a tribute.
