I can't wait. I expect to laugh and cringe in equal measure.

Ignore those miserable gits on M.C. and go and have a good laugh. He's a bit hit and miss but he's better than most of our current crop of comedians.

Its not saying much I know but theres bound to be few laughsd in there. Apparently the American Rodeo crowd ran him out of town after he sang the US National Anthem to the words of er..well read it yourself from the Ranaoke Times

No one knows for sure who he was, that Middle Eastern man in an American flag shirt and a cowboy hat who was supposed to sing the national anthem at a rodeo Friday night in the Salem Civic Center.

But he sure shook up this town before leaving in a hurry.

Introduced as Boraq Sagdiyev from Kazakhstan, he was said to be an immigrant touring America. A film crew was with him, doing some sort of documentary. And he wanted to sing "The Star-Spangled Banner" to show his appreciation, the announcer told the crowd.

Speaking in broken English, the mysterious man first told the decidedly pro-American crowd - it was a rodeo, of all things, in Salem, of all places - that he supported the war on terrorism.

"I hope you kill every man, woman and child in Iraq, down to the lizards," he said, according to Brett Sharp of Star Country WSLC, who was also on stage that night as a media sponsor of the rodeo.

An uneasy murmur ran through the crowd.

"And may George W. Bush drink the blood of every man, woman and child in Iraq," he continued, according to Robynn Jaymes, who co-hosts a morning radio show with Sharp and was also among the stunned observers.

The crowd's reaction was loud enough for John Saunders, the civic center's assistant director, to hear from the front office. "It was a restless kind of booing," Saunders said.

Then the man took off his hat and sang what he said was his native national anthem. He then told the crowd to be seated, put his hat back on, and launched into a butchered version of "The Star-Spangled Banner" that ended with the words "your home in the grave," Sharp said.

By then, a restless crowd had turned downright nasty.

"If he had been out there a minute longer, I think somebody would have shot him," Jaymes said. "People were booing him, flipping him off."

Rodeo producer Bobby Rowe, who by then had figured out that he was the victim of some kind of hoax, had the man escorted out of the civic center. Rowe told him that he and his film friends had best leave right then.

"Had we not gotten them out of there, there would have been a riot," said Rowe, who has been bringing his Imperial Rodeo Productions to Salem for years.

As his wife, Lenore, put it: "It's a wonder one of these cowboys didn't go out there and rope him up."

Yes it's true i am a delicate flower that needs to be nurtured and pamperd, which is why I can not understand why some people would like to see my p.... head on the block.
I do know of the love you have for me mimi, it is a shame that it can not be , but rest assured that if you find yourself in the Peaks I will send you back to Wien well consumated ;D

[sandywinder]

It's not your head that should be on the block but something far more important to you.

Well at last today I have found the time to go to my local Cineworld and see Borat. he seems to be getting rave reviews from both sides of the Atlantic. I will tell you later what i think of Borat, if you are interested that is? if you are not I will tell you what i didn't think ;D

gus

[gus2]

Well it was as much as i expected belly laughs and toe curling in equal parts but I hope anyone that does go to see it does not fail to pick up on the utter hypocricy of some people.
The store owner/manager in the gun store who batted not an eyelid when Borat asked him for the best gun to kill Jews and the o/m proceeded to tell him.
Or the stupid antics of the Christians at a Republican party/ Christian Evengelist meeting where they were dancing and running around like idiots and 'speaking in tongues'
