The phone rang while Ridwan Hughes was doing the ironing, resulting in
the 3rd degree burn to the ear, visible for all in uk.media.dvd to
guffaw over.

Oh people, know that you have committed great sins.
If you ask me what proof I have for these words,
I say it is because I am the punishment of God.
If you had not committed great sins,
God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you.
