Boats damaged in Birzebbuga

Forty years to the day since a storm pushed a tanker aground in Marsascala, breaking it in two, strong south easterly winds lashed Malta today, although the consequences were far less dramatic.

The Greek tanker Angel Gabriel lost power off Marsascala on September 23, 1969 and was grounded on a reef, where it broke its back. The crew made it to shore with difficulty except one, who jumped from the ship in a panic and died.

Today's wind whipped up rough seas in Birzebbuga and, to a lesser extent, Marsaxlokk. Two cabin cruisers broke their moorings in Birzebbuga. One ended up on the rocks and the other on the sandy beach. A smaller boat was smashed by the waves and quite a number of boats were quickly hauled ashore by their owners.

Library Joke

"What time does the library open?" the man on the phone asked.
"Nine A.M." came the reply. "And what's the idea of calling me at home in the middle of the night to ask a question like that?"
"Not until nine A.M.?" the man asked in a disappointed voice.
"No, not till nine A.M.!" the librarian said. "Why do you want to get in before nine A.M.?"
"Who said I wanted to get in?" the man sighed sadly. "I want to get out."

A joke from Hungary found on Readers Digest.

Doctor: Have you taken my advice and slept with the window open?
Patient: Yes, Of course!
Doctor: So has your asthma disappeared?
Patient: No, but my watch, Ipod , TV and Blackberry have!!
