ShareAnd Chuck Norris is the new hero among American soldiers in Iraq! Chuck who? I will come to that later.
But firstly, New York governor Eliot Spitzer can't believe his bad luck. Not only did he pay for sex with a prostitute, but what he thought was the right professional approach has not only cost him his job but he's also staring at a costly divorce.
Worse, Kristin the Call Girl, not only got paid but she's now a celebrity with a book deal and a career in music without competing in American Idol!
Spitzer can only wish he'd born in India, where politicians don't have to quit for such flimsy reasons. In fact, he can only envy IHF president KPS Gill, who is not a politician, but still refuses to quit despite finding himself in the penalty corner after India failed to qualify for the Olympics.
Instead Gill blamed the film Chak De and threatened to drag Yash Chopra to court. "Nobody warned me when I decided to screen the film to boost the morale of my boys," he argued. "They came out of Chak De demoralised by the women's hockey team!"
Not surprisingly, Gill's many detractors have been thinking of ways to punish the former top cop. One idea was to launch a website like the one dedicated to Chuck Norris and pepper it with updated nursery rhymes like:
KPS Gill went over the hill
To drown Indian hockey in water!
The team went down
Everyone had a frown
But Gill refused to tumble after!
And that brings us to Chuck Norris, an action hero from the 80s who's been resurrected on the Internet through a website simply called chucknorrisfacts.com. I list below some of my favourite facts:
Chuck Norris doesn't read books. He stares them down until he gets the information he wants.
Chuck Norris does not eat. Food understands that the only safe haven from Chuck Norris' fists is inside his own body.
Chuck Norris recently had the idea to sell his urine as a canned beverage. We know this beverage as Red Bull.
Chuck Norris grinds his coffee with his teeth and boils the water with his own rage.
