New digital currency to be launched

I am starting a new digital financial initiative, which I invite you all to be in on the ground floor for, unless you are up on the 4th floor when you read this, where I ask that you take the lift/elevator* down so that you too can be in on the ground floor.

(*note the patronising use of the word "elevator" for our American brethren who may otherwise think a lift is something you accept from a passing motorist. Or, er, is that a ride? Which I will be pleased to take you on should you subscribe to this initiative).

This new initiative is called Craptocurrency, and is based on Toiletchain technology. Should you join, each time you flush your toilet, I will make sh*t-loads of money, while at the same time, promising that you too will also make sh*t-loads of money, even though you won't. Be advised though, that, when the internet thieves and cons move in, as they are bound to, they will attempt to offer you flushing urinals and bidets - these will not work with the new Toiletchain technology. However, like existing digital currencies and computers, you will similarly have to leave your toilet flushing overnight when otherwise not being used.




In tandem with Craptocurrency, images will also be available called NST's, or Non Spongeable Tokens (WARNING - they will disintegrate if you attempt to wipe them clean with a sponge). Using your Craptocurrency, you will be able to purchase these highly desirable and totally infantile pieces of art (they will all be drawn by world-famous celebrities such as the one with the big lips on Love Island, whatever his name is, the irritating Irish woman with the large mouth who advertises Fairy biopods, and the woman from the Omaze/Vodafone advertisement who speaks like she is having her leg amputated without anesthetic while doing her voiceover).

This means you can then boast on social media that you have purchased something that is completely worthless, er, sorry, I mean highly desirable and valuable, yet will otherwise generate extremely large bank account balances, holidays homes abroad, cars and Gibson guitars with 9ct gold pickups for us all, er, I mean, for me.

Naturally enough, like other digital currencies, you will not have a clue how it works, what use it is for, why anyone should come up with it in the first place, why some people seem to be constantly wetting themselves with delight over it, and some form of timetable for when it all hopefully goes away and leaves us all in peace.

The diagram above should help flush out any concerns you may have.

The "Win a Million" free scratch card newspaper inserts

One of those three-panel "Win a Million" scratchcards fell out of my newspaper this morning. Not a major or in anyway newsworthy event in itself, but I must admit my surprise. I didn't think anyone bothered with them anymore, or, to be a little more technical, I didn't think anyone was taken in by them anymore. Firstly, it actually is printed on the bottom of each panel that "Every card has a set of 3 matching symbols, 2 matching symbols and no matching symbols". Right, so you are going to 'win', half-win and not win respectively. Then, while the prize list is somewhat impressive with 1x£1m, 1x£100k, 2x£20k, 3x£10k and other things like holidays, tablet PC's city breaks all the way down to 1000 "faux" fashion watches, 1000 salon  makeovers and 1000xVIP Thames cruises. Now should I be stupid enough to spend the £1.53 a minute for the 6 minute phone call to claim my prize (that's almost a tenner, for those of you without cal...

Chancellor's letter of apology to Bob Diamond of Barclays

Thanks to my contacts at the new News International business "Phonetaps'R'Us", I was exclusively sent a copy of a letter sent to the Chief Executive of Barclays Bank, Bob Diamond, from the Chancellor yesterday. "Dear Bob Trusting you and yours are well. Listen mate. Sorry the F inancially S tupid A sses wrote to your bank yesterday to demand £290million as a fine. It's nothing personal, and just because your bank head office people are a bunch of dishonest, thieving bastards, I thought there was no reason to carry on that way and fine you. I made this clear to the FSA yesterday as soon as I heard the news. I told them that the taxpayer would have been more than happy to bail you out. And also. Look mate. Sorry you've had to give up your bonus this year. It must have come as quite a shock, and was a wonderful thing for you to volunteer to do. I only hope you've put something by from the £17million you received last year. No doubt the bank pay...

Teen music goes full circle - from long-haired louts to screamers

I confess to being somewhat amused. Remembering back to my youth, the music of the day, with albums (the vinyl type) toted around school under arms, tended to be by the untidy long-haired, wailing a set of completely nonsensical lyrics loudly into a microphone, with a couple of interruptions by a seemingly endless guitar solo. Names such as Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Yes, Genesis, Blodwyn Pig, Blind Faith, Cream, Traffic, Spencer Davis with the 4-minute wonders provided by the Rolling Stones and Status Quo. Strangely, these bands or their members are still going strong up to 50 years later! And yes, they mostly wrote all their own material and played their own instruments. And my dad hated most of them, thinking they all sounded the same (although, as a man in his mid 80's before his passing away a couple of years ago, he enjoyed the Electric Light Orchestra, Ian Dury and Queen. And unashamedly, the album of cover songs by Ozzy Osborne). Today, the wailing has now become ...
