The video was filmed in front of the twin towers on 7 Sept 2001.
(that's one of those obscure facts that actually everybody knows, I believe)

You think he was scoping them out?
What a cunt

Let's face it, without the towers actually toppling, most people would never have heard of him.

Ha.
Just because you weren't old enough to have heard of them by the time they came down, youngling!

I still remember quite a lot about the day they came down!

Sorry, I actually meant 'Until the day they came down'
my messy use of English let me down again.

I moved into the first house I bought with my ex-wife the day they came down
First picture we unpacked and hung on the wall was a shot she'd taken of the towers years before. Then we turned the telly on and found out. Creepy trufax.

That's quite mental
It was a Tuesday, after getting into an argument with someone at lunchtime, I'd pointed out I didn't 'give a shit what he said, as I could have him anyday' (no, not in a gay way).

After History, when I was heading up to Textiles, he confronted me, put me up against a wall by the throat, and asked 'why the fuck I'd been saying I could batter him?'

I grabbed his throat back, and said 'Because I fucking could', and pushed him back into the window, where he tripped over the bag he'd left.

It was a good day. Then, when I got home, it got very strange, very quickly. But, I remember it well.

Anything about the day before, or after it? Not a fucking clue.

I was in a greasy spoon in Slough and heard about the first plane on the radio. Went back to the office and saw the rest of it happen on TV. A fuckwit db analyst found a website where you could listen to the NY police radios and decided to blare it out in the office. I told him to turn it off as we didn't know if any colleagues had friends or family in NY. He refused so I gave him a written warning.

written warning deserved kicking

We used to refer to him as Thrush.
I'm sure you can work out why.

Yep

I'm guessing it's not because he had a lovely singing voice in the spring and summer, right?

My boss used to whistle an attempt at birdsong every time the twat walked past him.
He never guessed.
