    Johnny Adair, cá bhfuil sé ?

    It's been so long or did I miss something, like him being sent to jail ? Surely, he'd have something to say about today's UDA announcement.

    He lives in Scotland I believe. Remember that terrible TV3 documentary when he sneaked back to Belfast?

    According to the Guardian he's in Troon in Scotland, although he's barred from most of the local pubs:

    A hotel in town is one of the few places Adair is welcomed. He was perplexed as to why Troon seemed to have turned against him. 'I'm not doing any harm here. I just want to get on with my life.' Sipping a Smirnoff Ice, the bald, tattooed former terrorist leader contemplated a future beyond loyalist paramilitarism. 'Do you think I could get a job as a private security officer or guard in Iraq?'

    Last I heard, he was living in Troon.

    Had to laugh

    Two years ago I had reason to go through a lot of motivational D.v.Ds


    I had to laugh when I saw one was brought out by one John Adair.
    (think he is Canadian).

    However it put in mind mental picture of guys personally motivating folk
    with baseball bats.

    There would be great material there if some of the satirists got their hands
    on it.
    Do you want to defy pigeon holes and at the

    same time avoid designer synicism Laugh with

    rage!
