A farmer is wondering how many sheep he has in his field, so he asks his sheepdog to count them. The dog runs into the field, counts them, and then runs back to his master.

Leggy Mushtaq appointed Pakistan's assistant cricket coach
KARACHI, Sept 15, 2006 (AFP) - Weeks after failing to get a

Personally I'd like a good deal of anti-Baker, anti-LDC and general ones "You don't know what you're doing", and suchlike.
But some of the old Bellotti ones (particularly "Fowler's had your wife") would be a laugh for old times' sake, even if he's not there....
As a side issue, does anyone else think the new Crimewatch theme tune is RUBBISH? The old one (with the snare drum and timpani riff... dada da da! Boom Boom!) was MUCH better.
