Tripping Along The Ledge

And I’m outtahere…
Right, I’m off. We need some time apart. It’s not you, it’s me. Actually, I’ve been persuaded to do some real work for a change, so I’ll have to take a few days off from here. Needless to say, I’m motivated and relishing the challenge. But first, some tea and biscuits are in order…

I’d like to take this opportunity to start a rumour that he’s working on a novel.
March 8th, 2010 at 3:30 pm
I heard it was an interpretive dance.

I heard it was an interpretive centre.

Well, it’s a bit early to be saving hay…

Eoinser was a dab hand at interpretative dance at one point. He had a great routine illustrating the careers of Al Pacino and Robert De Niro…

Willing to pay good money for a 5 minute video of those Al Pacino and Robert De Niro routines.
Also see the DUP gave Ian Paisley jnr the nod to take up the torch in North Antrim for his Dad. No real surprise.

Yes, as I recall it was very similar to his seed-growing-into-a-tree interpretative dance routine… 🙂

You’re wasted on the internet Eoin. Wasted.

Rumour has it the interpretive dance is to be performed on Grafton Street tomorrow at 9pm. Commentators have described it as “the unlikely lovechild of Allen Ginsberg’s Howl and the later music of Fleetwood Mac”.

I think the greatest triumph of my brief foray into interpretive dance was that none of you ever noticed my ‘Career of Robert De Niro’, ‘Career of Al Pacino’ and ‘Seed Growing into a Tree’ were all the exact same routine.

Oh and Tony, I am wasted on the internet. Frequently.

Have you finish that novel yet Eoin?
March 10th, 2010 at 12:21 am
Good luck to him whatever hes’ doing that Paisley crotch-shot should keep us going for a few days anyway. ..

Jesus thats a harsh image at this hour of the morning. His man boobs are actually drooping down over his waistline. Best luck with the book Eoin!

And I thought old people wearing pants that go up to their armpits was just a cliche.

Conan O’Brien’s American Tour now official – http://www.teamcoco.com
Now to spam him for an Irish visit. And Boston doesn’t count.

Maybe this is what Eoin is doing. hes helping Conan write his stage how. If he lets you open for him Eoin – do the Facebook friend from Gaza joke. It kills!
March 12th, 2010 at 12:42 am
@ fiona – he just has to decide now whodunnit. My money would be on the Butler but id say he wants to keep himself around for the sequal!
March 12th, 2010 at 11:59 am
Anything less than news that Eoin is writing/performing on this Conan tour and I will be VERY disappointed.
March 12th, 2010 at 5:06 pm
Haha… Rumbled. Yes, I approached Conan O’Brien – SNL alumnus, writer of the Simpsons Monorail episode and 17 year veteran of Late Night – and said, let me teach you a little something about comedy…

It’s a novel. Lake Mayoebegon days. A wry yet massively sentimental account of life in Ballyhaunis before the English telly channels.

Did we ever find out if there really was a book? If there I’d I want to read it.
