Bubsa Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 A man, aged 43 from Basingstoke, came fifth in his local hedge trimming contest, it emerged yesterday. The competition, which has run annually for seven years, attracts crowds of around 140 people each year, prompting a wave of public interest across the globe. Derek Smith, the man who came fifth, can't understand why Basingstoke is thrust into the limelight during the early weeks of September. "I thought my hedge was good, but not great. I think the best shears won." He continued: "But this whole pullava with the media and me talking to you seems a bit odd. I mean, it's only Basingstoke" Jacob Bridges of the World Telecommunication Federation puts the increase in coverage down to the rise of the internet. He commented: "With Google Earth and up to date RSS feeds, literally every corner of the world is covered. Well, it would if it was flat." Samantha Ball, founder of the 1999 organisation Sanity Please Against Media, added: "I think this increase can be very detrimental to communities. People are constantly bombarded with information that's trivial to them." She went on to explain how this information leaves no room for discussion and even lacks humour. "I just don't know what to tell my kids when they come out with these stories" she complained. Derek Smith is currently enjoying his red and white rosette, with a hint of green, in his back garden. He has yet to announce if he'll be entering the contest this year. What do you guys think of this? I think there are some things in it that could mean stuff. But then again, it might not mean that at all, but something else. I don't know. I was so tempted to Bel-Air this. Hope some of you enjoy the hidden semantics. This is how much you all raised for charity. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baron8000 Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 hmmm, this seems to be a new happening...we could formulate lots of these together and call them "news". We could record these on some kind of material and sell them to the public....paper. Yes a paper of news! A "Newspaper"! By Jove I think we've got it!
