    To 'the man': Probably posted already if so, bin it


    A Major earthquake measuring 5.8 on the Richter scale hit Waterford in
    the early hours of Friday with its epicentre near the Istanbul Chipper.
    Victims were seen running from the area shouting "Geowdaway boi".

    The earthquake decimated Muldoons, Rubys, Oxegyen and K-Recipe Chicken
    causing approximately 30 euros worth of damage. In nearby
    Poleberry several priceless collections of mementos from Lourdes were
    damaged beyond repair.

    Three areas of the historic WRTC were destroyed. Many locals were woken
    well before their trip to the dole office. Waterford Today reported that
    hundreds of residents were confused and bewildered and were still trying
    to come to terms with the fact that something interesting had happened
    in Waterford other than the
    tall ships.

    One resident, Elaine Walsh (pronounced Welsh), a 15-year-old mother of 5
    said, "Well, it caime as such a shock gerl, sure I was still shakin
    when I was watching Trisha the next morning."

    Apparently looting, muggings and car crime were unaffected and carried
    on as normal. The Red Cross has so far managed to ship 4,000 crates of
    Blaas and Tayto to the area to help the stricken locals.

    HOW CAN YOU HELP?
    22c buys a biro for filling in the compensation forms.
    €2 buys cola bottles, crisps and blue fizzy drinks for a family of 9.
    €5 buys 20 Carrolls and a lighter to calm the nerves of those affected.

    ***Breaking news***
    Rescue workers found a boy in the rubble smothered in raspberry alco-pop.
    "Where are you bleeding from?' rescue workers asked, "bleeding ballybeg
    boi" said the boy.
