Hi
Joel's misfortunes remind me of this story which a famous Welsh MP (whose
name escapes my memory - might have been Aneurin Bevan (1897 - 1960 )
related to the Oxford Union. It goes something like this.
The following is an accident report of a bricklayer, which was printed in the
newsletter of the British Worker's Compensation Board.
I picked up an MP3 file of this, recited by a Brit comedian named Gerard
Hoffnung. Pretty good. It is also around as "Why Paddy's not at work today".
