Good news: Saddam's been given the death penalty
Bad news: Beckham's taking it.

Better taste:
A young family moved into a house next door to a vacant plot. One day a gang
of builders turned up to start building a house on the empty plot.
The young family`s 5-year-old daughter naturally took an interest in all
the activity going on next door and started talking with the builders. She
hung around and eventually the builders, all of them rough diamonds, more or
less adopted her as a kind of project mascot.
They chatted with her, let her sit with them while they had tea and lunch
breaks, and gave her little jobs to do here and there to make her feel
important. At the end of the first week they even presented her with a pay
envelope containing five pounds.
The little girl took this home to her mother who said appropriate words of
admiration and suggested that they take the money she had received to the
bank the next day to start a savings account.
When they got to the bank the cashier was impressed to see such a young girl
with her first pay packet and asked her how she had made her very own money
at such a young age. The little girl proudly replied, "I worked all last
week with a gang of builders building a new house."
"My goodness gracious," said the cashier, "and will you be working on
the house again this week, too?"
The little girl replied, "Well, they said I will if those useless c**** at
Jewson ever bring us the f***ing plasterboard."
