Good News
The sheer tenuousness of the story means that we've forgotten it, and we can now place ourselves wherever we like - say, as president of the United States.
Bad News
If so, you'll have your arse licked by Tony Blair.
Good News
Of the 640 coalition deaths in Iraq only 545 are Americans.
Bad News
95 of them weren't
Good News
The 95 that weren't were *caused* by Americans
Bad News
That *was* the Bad News
Good News
'Good News' and 'Bad News' are now indistinguishable, meaning that newsreaders need no longer practise 'good news' and 'bad news' facial expressions and the ban on botox treatments and collagen lip-implants for newsreaders is lifted.
Bad News
Everything that newsreaders say is still utter guff.
Good News
To gain more viewers the news is to be made more entertaining.
Bad News

A lot of the kittens rescued are from war torn areas!
Bad News

Good News
Kittens can be deployed in 45 minutes and are considered as WMD. (They are in my house anyway).
Bad News
Hans Blix can't find his kitten.
Good News
But the rumour is that he has a Tiger in his tank (pun intended!)
Bad News
It's a real tiger
Good News
But it's tanked on watermelon-flavoured alco-pops, and can only manage a rumbling 'hic-purrrrrrrrr-hic-purrrrrrrr' as it staggers about.
Bad News
This is no good for running Hans' car.
Good News
It is listed as a driver on his insurance
Bad News
He'll probably be losing his no claims bonus.
Good News
No one has ever stopped his tank to ask for proof of insurance
Bad News
Parked on double yellow lines its just been clamped.
Good News
He's reached the age when it's good to take things a little slowly.
Bad News

Good News
He intends to succeed Michael Schumacher as Formula One World Champion when he retires.
Bad News
Michael Schumacher is not going to retire
Good News
This is because he's being cloned, thus bring into the world a race of chaffeurs.
bad news
chaffeurs are like pigs in Beverly Hills, your mother is a sow farmer in Mexico and you forgot to make porridge for your daughter
Good News
That made perfect sense
Bad News
Ce qui chaffe est un chaffeur.
Good News
Your French knowledge is practically zero, so there's no bad news.
Bad News
The french
Good News
It's only a matter of time before the Americans notice them.
Bad News
The Americans aren't the most efficient and they'll probably take out Briain on the way in.
Good News
They've only taken out the T but then they have a history of that.
Bad News
They're going after Brian next.
Good News
Brian is probably marginally safer than he would be if he were fighting on the Americans' side. Oooh! controversial political satire!
Bad News
Not if Mel Gibson has anything to do with it.
Good News
At least a decent British actor will play the baddie.
Bad News
British actors *always* play the baddie.

The baddie is the best role by far!
Bad News
Every decent British actor who has ever been cast as a baddie has emigrated.
Good News
There's always Brian Blessed...
Bad News
There will always be Brian Blessed!
Good News
He's about to emigrate.
Bad News
...taking you with him.
Good News
First class all the way
Bad News
You are flying by Bashkirian Airlines
Good News
Their first class is quite good, actually.
Bad News
You're only saying that to be polite to them.
Good News
They dont understand a word of what you've been saying.
Bad News
The captain also doesn't understand a word Air Traffic Control have been saying.
Good News
The captain does understand the letters and numbers, which is enough for him to avoid crashing into any other aircraft.
Bad News
...but not sand dunes isolated in the middle of the Saharan Desert.
Good News
But he's so lost he couldn't even find the Sahara
Bad News
He's found Birmingham city centre.
Good News
So has the SAS! They're here to arrest the air crew and Brian Blessed on terrorism charges!
Bad News
You're going with them, and because you've been designated an enemy combatant you won't have access to a lawyer, the right to trial, or even knowledge of what you are accused of while you languish in prison for an unspecified number of years.
Good News
They have a draughts set in the prison, and your are a world champion draughts (checkers)player!
Bad News
No one will play against you
Good News
It's a singles draughts championship
Bad News
None of the women going to this singles championship want a date with you.
Good News
One of the men does
Bad News
He's too butch. (Did I say that out loud? Hide me!)
Good News
You beat him at draughts, softening him up.
Bad News
He wants to play a new game involving a cucumber, axle grease and a tin of Spam!
Good News
You have the option of saying "no."
Bad News
Caryl Chessman will be the adjudicator.
Good News
They get on so well they decide to play the game together instead, and you can leave them to it.
