The Ultimate Comment is organising a major prank to take place this Saturday, July 1st. Details of the nature of the event are being kept secret for the moment, but assemble at the arch at the entrance to St Stephen's Green at 2p.m. sharp this Saturday and all will be revealed. Wear bright clothes. Bring musical instruments, gifts and good vibes.

Stoipéad reports the explosion of a commenteers face following an unanticipated tumble off his bike.
My face is thankfully back in working order, but it was a worrying experience for both commenteers.
Stoipéad is reported to have exclaimed "Jaysus, what the jaysus?!" upon hitting the groung and being revived by a Spanish onlooker.
In other news, the Life Festival, attended by four ambassadors of The Ultimate Comment last weekend was reported to have been an "extremely psychedelic" event. Photographs are expected to be presented soon of "Old Tripping Guy" and "Skeleton-like Skinny Czech Guy", prime representatives of the madness which took place over the full moon weekend.
The festival was deemed a success with the prevalence of thousands of dredlocks, flaming juggling objects, thumping, thumping speakers and liquid acid galore.
Leaflets promoting the search for the Ultimate Comment were distributed-a-plenty inducing many a confused giggle from kaleidoscope-eyed individuals.
Also, in the U.S. recently, a woman has been awarded $1.7 million dollars for being spanked by her boss. Fantastic!

Scientists in Japan have invented an insane science-fiction style thought-controlled robot hand that acts on thought, not volition. Best not to use it around people you don't like.

An Ultimate Comment 'Third Eye on Dublin' reporter has sighted thousands upon thousands of yellow rubber ducks clogging up the beautiful river that runs at the heart of Dublin.
It is important to note seeing as most people around Dublin have been commenting endlessly about it. This event seems to be an important social device as people have been observed to stop in mid-stride when'st crossing the Ha'penny bridge to ask complete strangers why there are 150,000 inanimate ducks in the Liffey. This interaction not only happened on the Ha'penny bridge, but on various streets around the Inner City and in many pubs and nightclubs.
Whether the sentence: "Hav ye seen all dem ducks in de liffey luv?" was, indeed, used as a chat-up line remains to be confirmed.
It was for a charity, the name and cause of which is still undetermined by Dubliners.
Apparently it was intended to break a world record, more than likely to be the "Most confused Irish people crossing the Ha'penny Bridge in one Day" record. The amount of money raised for said charity is unknown by the Commenting community, but one thing we do know is this;
putting thousands of yellow ducks in the Liffey makes strangers talk to each other, commenting on the odd situation they are in, giving Dubliners a sense of community and enforcing valued Ultimate Comment theories.
Pranks and The Ultimate Comment seem to go hand in hand.

The Life Festival will take place on the weekend of the next full moon, at Charleville Castle in Tullamore, Uibh Fhaili. It promises the sort of psychedelic vibe the huddled masses of Ireland are secretly thirsting for. All commenteers are encouraged to attend, otherwise you won't really have anything to talk to anyone about for the following months and years. Bring tents, sleeping bags, a toothbrush and something totally unique to yourself for the good people to groove on.
Tickets are availablle from Spindizzy records. They cost €85 at the time of blogging, but will be going up to €95 soon, and will be a cool hundred at the door.
Further details, including a line-up, at www.life-festival.com (quite a good website altogether)
