"A Welsh rugby fan cut off his own testicles to celebrate Wales beating England at rugby, the Daily Mirror has reported. Geoff Huish, 26, was so convinced England would win Saturday's match he told fellow drinkers at a social club, 'If Wales win I'll cut my balls off', the paper said on Tuesday. Friends at the club in Caerphilly, south Wales, thought he was joking. But after the game Huish went home, severed his testicles with a knife, and walked 200 metres back to the bar with the testicles to show the shocked drinkers what he had done. Huish was taken to hospital where he remained in a seriously ill condition, the paper said. Police told the paper he had a history of mental problems." [Yahoo UK]

"Tony Blair's former spin doctor-in-chief Alastair Campbell has committed a stunning digital blunder which saw him fire off a four-letter tirade in error to a journalist at the BBC. Reacting angrily to allegations of anti-Semitism in Labour's recently binned campaign posters, an email sent in error by Campbell to the Newsnight journalist Andrew McFadyen, when intended for ad agency TBWA, suggested the BBC should 'fuck off and cover something important'. He also referred to BBC journalists at 'twats', adding to a rift between the spin doctor and the broadcaster which first reached a head over the 'dodgy dossier' in 2004. However, Campbell tried to laugh off the blunder, attributing it to not being 'very good at this email Blackberry malarkey' in a second email." [Silicon.com]

Campbell is one of those people who always blames someone else and never takes responsibility. He should be a politician instead of working for one.
