FUCK ME FACTS!

We're in a bit of a rush this morning, but not so much that we can't bring you these amazing facts about Wednesday, August 4:
» Ooh, those royals: It's four years since Prince Phlip was photographed riding a motorcycle with Lady Romsey. We just hope to goodness she was riding side saddle.
» Aw, you can always rely on mum. It's nine years since American Joy Glassman admitted starting five fires in an effort to save her son's career as a fire-fighter.
» Helen Stephens won the 100m at the Berlin Olympics in 1936. It was later reported Hitler had made a pass at her and was promptly rejected.
» Women played cricket at Lord's for the first time in 1976, beating the Australians by eight wickets. Now, what does that tell us about the blokes?
» Liza Tarbuck joined the Big Breakfast today in 1999. Seven years earlier, she had been refused the slot for being "too old".
» During a New Kids on the Block gig in 1990, £26,000 of the souvenir proceeds were stolen.
» And it's two years since Darius Danesh became the third Pop Idol to hit the number one spot.
» No birthdays of note today, unless you know different. Happy birthday to you, dear readers, instead.

About Us

According to Marxist theory, cultural forms such as opera, classical music and the literary works of Shakespeare all fall under the heading of high culture. Low culture refers to a wide variety of cultural themes that are characterised by their consumption by the masses. We might not be Marxists, but we do know we loved Footballers Wives. If you do too, you'll know what this is all about.
