SONG CHALLENGE WINNER!

The Song Challenge:   Lost your 'Olympic' spirit? Here's a little story that should help to inspire all of us to 'go for the gold' . . . So, Go For It Challenge!rs!!   Thirty contestants from around the globe recently gathered in London for the second annual round of the Official World Dung Spitting Championships. CNN's Amanda Kibel was there to witness the 'action':   "It might not be the most physically demanding sport in the world, but mentally, it's a real challenge. All you need, say competitors, is a good lung capacity, limber lips, a strong mind and stomach, and a prime pellet of animal dung. The aim of the game is simple: overcome the resistance to placing the dung in your mouth and then, spit it out.   The all-important dung selection is first, and the competition was fierce for pieces of the finest droppings, gathered on a game farm in Africa, yielded by the Kudu, a small deer-like animal. And clearly, not just any old dung will do. A worthy pellet must be firm, not crumbly, and preferably, not too fresh.   As the first training session unfolded, interest from some passersby was high, but controversy dogged this competition from the start. One woman passerby commented, "You're spitting! And there's a rule about spitting in this country.  There is, there's a bylaw about spitting."   The games must go on. Competition day dawned, and competitors embarked on the vital warm-ups (gulping large portions of golden ale and dark stout). Mouths well lubricated, they spit their best, but in the end, it's a sudden-death playoff.   The Dungmeister, the reigning champion, the man who, in the past, has spat a mighty ten meters, faces off against an unknown, a rank outsider! A new champion is born, and he pays tribute to his technique: "I use the little pointed end (of the dung) towards the back. That seems to work."   But it takes more than just technique. Dung spitters say that what it's really all about is a simple case of mind over waste matter."

Hyperabid's Comments:  Well mes amis, sorry for disappearing for yet another few days, but work is frankly taking up all my time. Plus selling a house - moving in with ma cherie and generally getting on with life...

Well I'm the king of sh*t slingers oh! 
The dung-boy VIP 
I've reached the top by just throwing slop 
And that's what bothering me 

I wanna go to the olympics 
Win a medal made of gold 
Tried to bribe the committee, but they're being shitty 
And they just will not be told 

(Response part in brackets) 

Doobeedo ( Oo - bee - Do!) 
I wanna throw some poo - oo - oo! (Smelly poo in dee air) 
I'll beat your javelin and get your shot put in 
But do you care? (There's a smell in the air) 

You see it's true - oo - oo (so true!) 
You don't like poo - oo - oo (You're poo!) 
But can't you see -ee- ee it's better than lobbing pee - ee - ee (yeah!)
