Chris de Burgh Is A Reckless Idiot
 
Prosecution Exhibit A:

-----------------------------------
Don't Pay The Ferryman,
Don't Even Fix A Price,
Don't Pay The Ferryman,
Until He Gets You To The Other Side
-----------------------------------

What kind of advice is this? Surely fixing a price would be preferable to being transported to the destination of choice and then being held to ransom about how much the rendered service was worth?

Does Mr de Burgh not realise that (as he is clearly the leading influential figure for The Yoof of today) he has responsibilities?

I say boycott this man until he sees the error of his ways.

Also, (and perhaps more importantly) if you fix the price, the ferryman is less likely to take a scenic route to the destination.

Mind you...

Are you sure he was not referring to Brisbane taxi drivers?:D

You should be ashamed of yourself. Listening to Chris de Burgh. And even worse, taking advice from that hideous gargoyle. (Now where's the vomit smiley when you need one?) :confused_smile:

Lady in Red. And it couldn't possibly be me since I wouldn't dance cheek to cheek with that off-key rectum.

:blink: I asked two Yoofs of today and thankfully they'd never heard of him. I think I'd rather they took advice from Marilyn Manson to be honest. :eek:

I've been informed that Lady Goo Goo is more in vogue, I shall seek her opinion on oceanic conveyance methods. I am sure that she has a better perspective than Mr de Burgh.

He's actually a British national (born in Argentina to British Dad/Irish mother) lived in Argentina, Malta, Nigeria and Zaire growing up, before finally settling in Ireland. Not arguing with the "prick" comment though ;)

Brilliant. You are man of fine predudice.I once became almost violent because I saw a guy wearing a Chris de Burgh t -shirt.
He is one of my irrational hatreds. A total baw bag,dreadful singer etc etc.
