The Pinocchio syndrome

Grandad January 18th, 2008

I watched a bit of the news last night.

There was an article on about our Great Leader, who is over in Africa single-handedly saving the place, and doubtless picking up some backhanders in the process.

Normally I don’t look too closely at Bertie.  I find his pudgy face singularly unattractive.  His piggy eyes and artificial smile annoy me.  Of all our past leaders, himself and Charles J had the least trustworthy faces.

But I couldn’t help but notice something.

Now, I’m not joking.  I’m not making this up for the sake of something to write about.  But has anyone noticed his nose?

I swear it’s getting bigger.  Longer?

Has it anything to do with the Mahon Tribunal?

    In all fairness if his nose grew in proportion to his telling of lies he would need a separate plane to carry it to Africa.

    Concorde?

    Maybe it will grow so big that they won’t be able to get him back on the plane home?

    That is a lovely thought isn’t it? Bertie stuck all alone in quarantine in some dank African facility for 8 months!

    Perhaps he is indeed turning into a pig. His nose is awfully rounded on the end. :)

    Agreed.

    And it was already getting obvious back in September

    Jayzus, Bock! So I’m not the only one to notice it?

    Maybe they should graft his nose onto Harney – They’d have the perfect pig to feed all Africa?

    Lol, he’s more like one of the Gumbies from Monty Python.

    I guess the combination of lies and the fact that your nose and ears NEVER stop growing until you die is taking its toll on ole Bertie.
    His donation from Ireland will certainly help the African politicans bank balances, he can learn a few things from African politicans, probably the real reason for his visit!

[...] Head Rambles, by Grandad, is a ramble through the head of an Irish senior citizen who mixes rants about Irish politics and American culture with random thoughts about his blogging daughter K8 the Gr8 and how to get free drinks in the local pub. He first started writing it in October 2006, as a self-proclaimed grumpy old man, and the blog has since evolved into a humorous mix of provocation and fun. [...]
