What did I miss? I went away on holiday and whilst I was gone President Obama swiped a fly, swiped it again and then squatted it. All of a sudden flies are big news and millions (and I mean millions!) of people are watching the Ninja remix footage of the execution (the words of PETA, not mine) on YouTube.
And I absolutely love the BBC’s top ten tips to squatting a fly. Having watched the Karate Kid this weekend on TV, I immediately thought of chopsticks and sure enough, that method came in at number 6. I am a bit disappointed that Luminos didn’t appear on their list anywhere. Had it been installed in the newsroom - the fly wouldn’t have got through the door, never mind pestered the USA President during his interview.
Perhaps our US colleagues could flog a Luminos to the White House for their travels??

I was very surprised to see Obama whack the fly!! I thought he would have had a possy of bodyguards to protect him from the pesky little blighters!
A good post…next we await if Obama can take up the challenge with the chopsticks!
We can’t afford it anymore with the “stimulus” package….Obama will just have to keep swatting……lolololol
Obama had his fly and now the Pope has his spider
