Death Ray Pa


The Prof apologises for his recent absence but things in the lab have been extremely busy of late what it the building of 'death rays' and concentration on the movement on the lab to the big smoke. A sound hurrah has gone up among my monkey mates however as it means we dont move for another two weeks, two final weeks of access to the world mega global net and the sending and receiving of electronicised mails.

A big shout out to the Ronster and Willster for showing their faces yesterday evening for the poor shambles of a game that was Chelsea v Barcelona. Another super poor performance tonight by Rafapool saw Bennyfica through to the next round, what is the world coming to....the sooner this death ray is built the better!

Great Brazilian and fake German tanks

What an evening of contrasts, a fantastic evening of football by Barcelona....genius Ronaldinho, great Messi, some nice Robben dribbling and great game overall.

Now the contrast, the Prof being a a great fan of WW2 era everything (ngoi) was quite pleased to see that TG4 were showing Battle of the Bulge last night. The Battle of the Bulge, as you all know, was Hitlers last great push against the Allies by attacking through the Ardennes in 1944 (ngoi). Starring the likes of Henry Fonda, Charles Bronson, Robert Shaw and Telly Savalas

However the Prof was perplexed to say the least as the film attempted to pass off American M-26 Pershing tanks as German 'Tiger' and 'Panther' tanks. Anyone in the their right state of mind would jump up and cry foul at this misdeamour of hsitorical accuaracy as i did. Granted the film was filmed in 1965 and the storyline is fairly dreadful but come on lets have replica tanks in their.

Livers of the world unite!


Well, what a weekend! The Prof and his fellow monkey mates attended a 'How to kill your liver' conference all day Saturday. The day started out with a well deserved win for Liverpool over Monkeychester, should have had a few more, though the game wasnt the best over all. A big shout out must go to Wilbur for:

a. Bringing Vodka & Fig to the conference
b. Brigning Whiskey & Cream to the conference
c. Bringing Plum & Vodka to the party
d. Allegedly breaking his nose and toe

There were many memorable performances such as Boylan taking the young life of a handsome can of Guinness, lobbing him Pa-wards before exiting in a gettaway taxi and waking me out of my slumber the following day after planting his keys on me, you dont need an excuse to visit Boylan. Also of note was the appearance of Mango & Ger in the boozer, 3.5 mins after some pordn....two guys on a couch watching pordn?? Apparently Mangey is in pain after "pulling" something. Finally i would like to thank the greatest man of the day, one Mr. Arthur Guinness....no more need be said.

Monkey Lab playmates of the week


Hermaphrodites are a rarity these days, thats we we're glad they decided to pose as Monkey Labs Playmates of the Week. Boyley McGicker and Rasher O' Lovely are caught by papparazzi leaving their hotel, while Boylely smoulders Rashers is visibly shocked.

Liverpool v Monkeychester Utd

Maybe its all the Guinness swirling around my innards but im in fighting mood today, not the physical fighting of course but the verbal kind. More drink and some nice food will be consumed tonight courtesy of the good people at Wongs and then its the drinking event of the century tomorrow. The century you say? Yes the century...whys that you ask? good question i says....well there will be a gathering to see if Liverpool can knock Monkeychester United out of the cup tomorrow....it'll be sloshtastic.

Your resident Scoop Monkey will be there to report on any happenings...stay tuned folks!

Munich...or Munchen if your German (minus the umlaut)


The Prof attended a screening of Munich yesterevening with Rashers O' Lovely in the Omni-dome. While the Prof was pleased with the film in general he would not go as far to say its was great, not to say that it was not great so to speak. Eric Banana was quite good as lead with some good supporting roles, Geoffrey Rush was a tad annoying though. I was informed later by Rashers O' lovely however that large chunks of the real life events were omitted however probably in the name of dramatic licence i suppose.

The Prof woulf give this movie 7 out of 10 bananas.

Valentines dinner - love with a side of stress

Here at the monkey lab my fellow monkeys have been trying to divise a formula for the best Valentines day dinner ever. Prof Pa decided to cook his special lady monkey a meal today as a gesture of love, unfortunately Prof Pa's area of expertise is in the bedroom and not the kitchen...whe, whe , whe...anyway he could do with some suggestions.

Uncoiling a transfibulator matrix or de-energising an energy machine may be as easy as pie to the Prof but his Kitchen Mechanics could be notched up. On a related note the Prof frequented the Man O War booze shop on Sunday for lunch, great little boozer. They were advertising their Valentines menu, quite reasonable, which included 'Pigeon in Port and Soy'. The Prof has asked his fellow monkeys to check out the aphrodisiac qualities of Pigeon.....he's still waiting for the results.

An alarming weekend


Prof. Pa, Monkey Overlord, did not have an amusing weekend at all,thanks to his house alarm. It teased, cajoled and toyed with the Profs mental well being for most of the weekend. The story starts when the alarm started to ring at approx 11am Saturday morning, the Prof thought it was odd as th alarm wasnt set however his monkey coding tamed the beast. Verse two began at 6:30pm and unfortunately the alarm persisted in bellowing its chimy chorus for approx 20 mins before eventually taking a break.

The house alarm took the biscuit, apple tart and chocolate gateux thought by going off at 2:30am. Well, the Prof thought, another tantrum that would soon desist. Little did he realise the alarm was going for the world chiming record and contiued to sing til the morning, the Prof having to get a professional in at 10am the next morning and paying €120 to 'take it out'. The alarm system is survived by a keypad downstairs and a fuse box in the poxy attic.

The Profs advice for the week? Get a dog....
