Murphy calls to see his mate Paddy who has a broken leg.
Paddy says, “Me feet are freezing mate, could you nip upstairs and get me slippers?”
“No bother,” he says, and he runs upstairs and there are Paddy’s two stunning 19 year
old twin daughters sitting on their beds.
“Hello dere girls, your Da’ sent me up here to shag ya both.”
“Fook off you liar!”.
“I’ll prove it,” Murphy says.
So he shouts down the stairs, “Both of them, Paddy?”
“Of course, what’s the use of fookin’ one?”
Yet another Irish Joke

Mick and Paddy were walking home from the pub.
Mick says to Paddy, ‘ I can’t be bothered to walk all dat way.’
‘I know,’ says Paddy, ‘but we’ve no money for a cab and we’ve missed the last Bus home. ”We could steal a bus from the depot,’ Mick suggests.
They arrive at the bus depot and Mick tells Paddy to go in and get a bus while he keeps a look-out.
After shuffling around for ages, Mick shouts, ‘Paddy, what are you doing? Have you not found one yet?’
Paddy shouts back, ‘I can’t find a No. 91’
‘Oh holy lord , ye thick sod, take a No. 14 and we’ll walk from the roundabout.
Merged realities – events and issues for virtual worlds

1. Anyone still not convinced about the growth of virtual meeting spaces within business might like to check out the one created for the Virtual Edge Summit by Officepodz. More on this later in the week.
2. Twinity have expanded their virtual Berlin area. As of now, there’s a ‘be Berlin citystore’, which is part of the ‘be Berlin’ tourism marketing campaign. The citystore will play host to some further events and some round-table discussions to promote Berlin as an attractive tourist destination. The citystore can be found in the real world and in Twinity at Rochstraße 15, 10178 Berlin-Mitte.
3. The Alter Ego documentary on Second Life is now scheduled for screening this month: Friday 26th June at 10pm AEST. A review of the documentary is coming soon.
4. Gary Hayes has an interesting post to coincide with the widely misinterpreted “bombing” of ABC Island in Second Life. Those were the days.
5. Apparently it’s barbed wire and a concentration camp feel on the boundaries of the new adults-only test areas in Second Life.
Sexualisation of kids: the David Jones angle
June 1, 2009 by Leave a Comment
Being heavily involved with technology I often get comments around the role online activitiescan play with sexualisation of kids. Independent news outlet Crikey have run an excellent story today on a David Jones catalogue – it’s well worth the read.
It’s just further proof that the issue is as much a societal one as a technological one. It’s also an issue that companies will need to be aware of as consumer backlash grows against practices like this.
