			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: #333333;"><strong>A man called Stephen Morgan has been charged with criminal damage to two    hamburgers worth £5 after becoming involved in an alleged doorstep dispute    with a fast food firm.</strong><span id="more-437"></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #333333;"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-224" title="Hawksby &amp; Dickens_Burger" src="http://www.blog.hawksby.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Hawksby-Dickens_Burger.jpg" alt="Hawksby &amp; Dickens_Burger" width="60" height="60" />Morgan, 31, was arrested and taken from his home in handcuffs at the weekend    after his family&#8217;s order with their local pizza parlour in Loughor, near    Swansea, arrived minus two burgers.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #333333;">He is due to make a first appearance at Swansea Magistrates&#8217; Court, in south    Wales, next Monday.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #333333;">The incident began when Morgan was at home in with partner Michelle Owen on    Saturday evening.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #333333;">The couple, who have two children, planned to stay in and watch ITV1&#8242;s The X    Factor with other family members.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #333333;">A dispute is alleged to have started after an order of <a href="http://www.hawksby.co.uk">food </a>with a local pizza    parlour arrived without the, no doubt, tasty hamburgers.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #333333;">Mr Morgan claims it was agreed the group should wait for the rest of the    order, he told the South Wales Evening Post.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #333333;">A dispute is alleged to have started with a delivery man who came to the house    later, and £15 compensation was eventually paid out, he claims.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #333333;">What follows remains unclear, however police visited the address later that    evening and arrested Mr Morgan on suspicion of robbery.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #333333;">He was taken to Swansea Central police station where he was questioned about    the incident and held overnight.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #333333;">A South Wales Police spokesman confirmed that a 31-year-old man was arrested    on Saturday evening and has since been charged with causing criminal damage    to food valued at £5.</span></p>

One<br />
night, she confided in him that she was pregnant.</span></strong></span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Not wanting to ruin his  reputation or his marriage, he paid her a large sum of money if she would go  to Italy to secretly have the child. If she stayed in Italy to raise the<br />
child, he would also provide child support until the child turned 18. She<br />
agreed, but asked how he would know when the baby was born. To keep it<br />
discrete, he told her to simply mail him a post card, and write &#8220;Spaghetti&#8221;<br />
on the back. He would then arrange for the child support payments to begin.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">One day, about 9 months later, he came home to his confused wife.&#8221;Honey,&#8221;she<br />
said, &#8220;you received a very strange post card today.&#8221; &#8220;Oh, just give it to me<br />
and I&#8217;ll explain it later,&#8221; he said.The wife obeyed and watched as her<br />
husband read the card, turned white,and fainted.<br />
On the card was written:</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;"><strong>&#8220;Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti.Three with<br />
meatballs, two without.<br />
Send extra sauce.&#8221;</strong></span></p>

He<br />
wanted to dig his tomato garden, but it was a lot of<br />
work as the ground was hard. His only son, Vincent,<br />
who used to help him, was in prison. The old man wrote<br />
a letter to his son and described his predicament.</strong></span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Dear Vincent,<br />
I am feeling pretty badly because it looks like I<br />
won&#8217;t be able to plant my tomato garden this year. I&#8217;m<br />
just getting too old to be digging up a garden plot. I<br />
know if you were here my troubles would be over. I<br />
know you would be happy to dig the plot for me.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Love, Dad</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">A few days later he received a letter from his son.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Dear Dad,<br />
Don&#8217;t dig up that garden. That&#8217;s where I buried the<br />
bodies.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Love, Vinnie</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">At 4 a.m. the next morning, FBI agents and local<br />
police arrived and dug up the entire area without<br />
finding any bodies. They apologized to the old man and<br />
left.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">That same day the old man received another letter from<br />
his son.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Dear Dad,<br />
Go ahead and plant the tomatoes now. That&#8217;s the best I<br />
could do under the circumstances.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Love you, Vinnie</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: #888888;"><span id="dnn_ctr402_ContentPane"><span id="spBody"> <img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-42" title="BBQ etiquette" src="http://www.blog.hawksby.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/BBQ-etiquette-150x150.jpg" alt="BBQ etiquette" width="76" height="76" /><span style="color: #333333;">We are about to enter the summer and BBQ season. Therefore it is important<br />
to refresh your memory on the etiquette of this sublime outdoor cooking<br />
activity, as it&#8217;s the only type of cooking a &#8216;real&#8217; man will do, probably<br />
because there is an element of danger involved.</span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">When a man volunteers to do the BBQ the following chain of events are put<br />
into motion:</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Routine&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">(1) The woman buys the food.<br />
(2) The woman makes the salad, prepares the vegetables, and makes dessert.<br />
(3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with<br />
the necessary cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to the man who is<br />
lounging beside the grill &#8211; beer in hand.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Here comes the important part:</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">(4) THE MAN PLA CES THE MEAT ON THE GRILL.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">More routine&#8230;.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">(5) The woman goes inside to organize the plates and cutlery.<br />
(6) The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is burning. He thanks<br />
her and asks if she will bring another beer while he deals with the<br />
situation.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Important again:</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">(7) THE MAN TAKES THE MEAT OFF THE GRILL AND HANDS IT TO THE WOMAN.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">More routine&#8230;.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">(8) The woman prepares the plates, salad, bread, utensils, napkins, sauces,<br />
and brings them to the table.<br />
(9) After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">And most important of all:<br />
(10) Everyone PRAISES the MAN and THANKS HIM for his cooking<br />
efforts.<br />
(11) The man asks the woman how she enjoyed &#8216;her night off.&#8217; And, upon<br />
seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that there&#8217;s just no pleasing some  women&#8230;&#8230;</span></p>
