This story hails from Paul recounting a tale from the office where, it being rather heated, the management supplied fans as a cure.  Only, his gaseous escapades, post-red Thai curry lunch, were swiftly relocated to the nasal territories of his area manager.  You can give it a listen by going to their podcast page at Big Kids Playground.  It'll be the 27 minute special from October 2nd.

After listening to Paul and Myk (sp?) run down the 1977, Star Wars (a New hope) - and tearing apart the Ewoks, I imagined what it would be like if Paul was assigned to shuttle down to the Forest Planet of Endor and do some arse kicking actuary work.  This is drawn from Big Kids Playground podcast episode 10.

Imagined from a short tale heard on the "Talking Rubbish" podcast (Episode 78) as told by Eric about a masterful trousers dropping crime fighter named "D Man" who confuses criminals just long enough with his quizzical deed in order for Spastigirl, his crime-fighting partner, to sweep in and take them down - the criminal that is.

On the latest podcast/webcam-cast of those hilarious fellows at bigkidsplayground there was some story-time from Paul about a possible misunderstanding observant motorists might have had if they noticed him stopped, alongside the motorway.  The story is better seen/heard in their podcast, but here is my imagining of how it all transpired.

I recently had the pleasure of being summoned to attend jury duty in the criminal court of Detroit.  It being each of our civic duties to attend and serve as jurors, I made sure to answer each and every question posed to me (as potential Juror # 10) as honestly as possible.  Here is how the day turned out.
