GCD Ball 08' 15/04/08
Formal Ball was in the Knightsbrook Hotel in picturesque Trim, I got a lift from Athlone with Maria and we got a lovely professional photo taken with her flatmate Megan and I looked absolutely fabulous!! Girls wern't half bad either! Jeanie Comer showed up we traded drinks, laughs and a photo but nothin else, though we had a blast all the same! Barra was ever the dapper dapper in his tux, but I think my bright striped blue tie was complimentary to my Remus Umo suit. The folowing day I had a sleep on a stone in Trim with the rain gently falling on me hair and the public walking past me wonderin is this a homeless guy in a suit asleep on our stone, thankfully it wasn't but nevertheless the castle in the background made me envisage scenes of Braveheart!

All in all, it wasn't bad and I look forward to leaving this college to go on to better things, oh NUIG jumps straight up at me!!! I wonder why??!!

Later me folks, danger!

DANGERTIME 08/04/08

Well folks, it's been awhile as the Dai Lama would say 2 long", well, I don't know just it's hotting up for the Torch now isn't it?, Tibet is on every 1's lips, Zimbabwe situation is kinda boring me now though Kirsty my friend on CNN makes it as exciting as 1 can from Hong Kong. Yes folks, Danger is no longer of no fixed abode, but of Apt. 28 Block 2a, GCD Halls of Residence, SCR, D 8. Livin with Eoin the cookie monster photos will be posted at some date though I've only seen him like 3 times in 3 weeks, comes out 1 a week guys u know dem, every 1 does...& Jan from Tramore a barrel of laughs, well no..............
GCD Ball comin up and my formal budgie for dates like this 2 hide the campness won't be der so I'm glad the Luke is comin, photo's no doubt will follow, but it will be a busy 1 as I've the cousins' confirmation on Saturday during the day first before I get the bus 2 Kinnegad - then hopefully my carriage awaits 2 bring me 2 the Knightsbrook for the Annual GCD Formal Ball, Southie stuffed in my pockets mind plus the ole Kopperberg Pear pian i mo bholg, but I wouldn't have it any other way!!! The NUIG Sports' Awards didn't prove successful for the NUIG Darts Club though we were chuffed 2 be invited & there was no sign of Judas there, but I think Jesus got a Kiss off Judas though I neva got a feek of Feeks!!! Well, the sinusitis s nearly at a bay now, so I'm lookin forward 2 my brief spell in the west before I next night out, I know what ur thinkin it's tough been an adopted south-side socialite but aaah well, some 1 has 2 do it!!!

NUIG DARTS CLUB UP FOR AN AWARD< LOOK HOW FAR WE'VE COME! 02/03/08

NUIG 25th Annual Sports Awards are on Thurs. n the plosh Ardilaun Hotel. As many of u knw 2 thngs mean alot in my life they are Darts & Republicanism. A cocktail 1 might say but I believe so much in both of them and what might be achieved with my input. Lets begin the tale of a Sports' Schlorship Interview back in September 05' I proposed the idea of the U.D.A.I. with its' HQ @ NUIG but as u knw it's in DANGERFIELD, Kilmore, Tuam. I outlined my ambitions and what I would do with the 2,000E should I of been awarded it and to the surprise of the interviewin panel I said I would put it in the U.D.A.I. not my back pocket and returning recently to the Sports' Centre n NUIG I must say I get a fantastic welcome from all the lads and what I said I would do on that day right up to this day, I've tried to keep on track. What does all this have 2 do with NUIG Darts Club, well upon the idea of forming a Darts Club back over 3 years ago, I have single handely ran it from my Dublin abode and the Club staged the U.D.A.I. Intervarsities on 13th & 14th April 07'' with GCD duly taking the honours. The club also held the U.D.A.I. Singles on 8th December last and it is with great pleasure that "NUIG is the 1st University in Ireland to recognise Darts as an Indoor Sports Club", and I am proud of that statistic! From hitting a 140 on the 1st Clubs' day in front of MI Meehan to playing "The Pieman", NUIG have come along way in that we have a fantastic Darts Set-Up in the College Bar to potentially the First Award for the Sport at Third-Level in the World at the NUIG Sports' Awards, I like to think enthusiasm & passion are the instigating factors, I feel it is worthy in concluding this tale that as we believe in the U.D.A.I.
"IT'S IN THE AIM". Thank you and Happy Darting my loyal fanbase!

NUIG LAW BALL WHERE 2 I BEGIN??? 14/02/08

Dear Diary,
It was a cold evening but I had a certain heat in my body as I caught the 3:45 bus to Tuam from Galway to get togged out for the Ball of all Ball's. BK picked us up and we headed to the Galway Bay after a quick pitstop in Woodquay, for a lick of the GHD straightner. We stayed in the car myself Dunty, BK until the lady inwaiting arrived, Ms. Caragh Mc Govern my companion for the night arrived at about 8 p.m., we unfortunately missed the champagne reception but I couldn't really give a toss, as "I think it's glorified piss".
The chocolate fountain awaited with lots of fruit however when I sussed it out I got 2 bits of kiwi & pineapple to delve into the fountain but it was stopped at this stage no "ripples in the rockpool" so to speak, so entertaining as I am I suggested to the other "fruit scavangers" that "there so over-rated". We made our way down to the dining hall, as myself & Caragh scanned the room for a table to join, loan behold we found space beside two long haired guys, (photos to follow), and I was PRIVELDGED to have the pleasure to sit beside Martin "The only Blind Law student in Ireland" and I couldn't help but say "It was a first for me", but I said I'm sure "it's a first for you too Martin". "What do you mean Steve?", "Well your sitting beside Ireland's only ever University Darts Champion". Nice Danger PR always on the spin, don't yee think??

Starter arrived. Vegetable soup though they were stingy on the bread so I kept sending the basket back for more and all in all, myself and Martin ate 20 slices between us, (conservative estimate u knw). Next, while we were chatting along the main course arrived; Turkey, Stuffing & Ham with gravy & 1 roast potato. WOW!! As the vegetables were coming along, (now I must say what I think of what I call country veg! Big F******g carrots, parsnips, cauliflower, broccolli, I hate them there f****** rotten, cheap crap, buffer's paradiso, I mean I'm a sizzling stir-fry man myself), the waitress looked creased like one of my crusty boxers asked us what we wanted? I was explaining to Martin what veg was on offer, and the waitress remarks "If he (Martin) would only let me in", like to serve him like, I felt like saying "Love, his a tiny bit blind", but I didn't want to shock her, the strapping cow, so when she was about to serve me the shite, I said only mash love, in my D4 style posh accent, intimidating way, as she replies; catch this "for f***s sake! I turned to Martin in stitches and Caragh and Martin's friend, "The fucking commoner".
We got not a bad desert by any means after I tried to eat seconds of Turkey & Ham, but I had to open the top button for comfort of me trousers!

The dance floor awaited as I made my ?60 last like there was no 2mrw, as I overindulged Caragh in white wine as it was FREE!! But I did get in a few vodka's & white, as I went after, you all know "Southie & Lime".
The night was in full swing now and as I knocked back an occasionaly vodka & black, I turned round to see the old ally, now enemy staring a me in a smiling fashion, I quickly threw the eyes to heaven and he done a 360 as I turned to Caragh and go "The plonkers arrived".
Speaking of him, I encountered him about a further 8 times during the night but my dignity and professionalism held in place the anger & aggression and I proceeded to go to the smoking area with Caragh and boy was it fun check out her joke, it's priceless!!!
Joke: Daddy Onion, Mammy Onion, Baby Onion & his brother and sister onions were placed on a shelf in a vegetable market for sale! A customer came in molested all the onions and took them all EXCEPT Baby Onion home. Then 2 days passed before a Farmer came into the vegetable market and bought Baby Onion who was obviously very happy to not be left alone. The Farmer put Baby Onion into the basket on his bike beside the morning paper and they cycled down the road. They went over a bump and Baby Onion flew out of the basket and fell down through the spokes on the wheel and the back wheel went over Baby Onion. The last Baby Onion could remember was waking up in hospital where all his family were sitting around his bed looking worried. The doctor came in and Mammy Onion asked:
"Doctor how is Baby Onion?"
The doctor repied, "Do you want the good or the bad news first?"
Mammy Onion said "The bad news, I suppose!"
Doctor then said, "Bad news is his grand!"
"Good news is, his gonna be a vegetable for the rest of his life!"

My night as you can imagine was a barrell of laughs and I thoroughly enjoyed it, after the party in 210 Dún na Coirbe where I must thank BK for brngn us to along with Dunty & Magnifico for their always continous support & wit! We hit the sack bout 5 a.m. NUIG College Bar now, as I await a Valentine, who will it be!!!! Check bak l8r 2 c!
Thanks for reading, Talk soon, my fans!

Outta College, Tryn for the dole, Law Ball awaits!!! 11/02/08

Dear Diary,
After a very stressful week after leaving "The Pieman" and "The Baron of the Board", at the airport I find that the debts are rolling up!! I'm been threatened with legal action for a €182 cheque, outstanding U.D.A.I. Bills of €1,500 and a unhappy lady in England wanting €200 well let's put it this way, "Dey'll f***in wait as I've to find shelter 1st, and just spend half the f***in mornin n the Dole Office tryin 2 sign on but I need an address. Nothing is easy for DANGER, but he'll don the glad rags for the law ball on wednesday n NUIG and take it from der!!!College on the long finger but exams ain't till May!!!

Settling the Score!! 01/02/08

I will be taking the stage in little over 3hrs & 10 mins as I introduce Tuam to a "Danger 180 Darts Style Exhibition".

Hopefully it will be the start of the Dixie Burke Darts League!

I will be playing "The Pieman" again best of 11 legs before the Finale event in "The Mill House", 2mrw evening.

Hopefully I can win 2-1 but a 2-1 defeat would be better than 3-0.

Must get practisin, talk soon my loyal fanbase,

DANGER


First Blood to "The Pieman" 01/02/08

After an entertaining evening n the NUIG College Bar Myself, LJ, John & Andy decided 2 skip the CP's invitation & head bak 2 shamtown.

LJ lost 4-0 best of 7 legs 501

I lost 6-0 best of 11 legs 501

Andy "The Pieman" Smith hit 5 maximum's (180's)!!!

Great night except for the continous racket of the decks, but once it stopped I had 6 darts from 54 to get bak n the game but it wasn't 2 be, not for lack of encouragement might I add from Cosey, Ritchie Davis, BK & Magnifico!

Next stop is the Galway Bay FM interview 2 mrw eve before the "Re-Match" n Geoghegan's Bar, Tuam.

In front of a home crowd I expect to put up a good performance and peg it bak to1-1 in matches before Saturday's Finale...

I'll keep you my loyal fanbase updated....L8r DANGER

The Showdown "The Pieman v DANGER" 30/01/08

On the eve of this, I must say I'm feeling confident of a 5-5 draw Best of 10 legs between Andy & I. On the other hand I'm not so confident about giving him the 1,000E appearance money over the weekend!

I will keep my fans post
Details in The Tuam Herald look good as does Galway Bay Fm & Flirt Fm, so hopefully I'll be able to raise enough cash from the U.D.A.I. auctioned shirts etc. by the time he flys back on Sunday eve from Dublin.

Photos will be posted after the events!

Happy Darting!

BDO World Darts Final 13/01/08

TERRIFIC MATCH!

I thought "The Wizard", was unlucky on at least six doubles no more so than the last leg where he shaved double 16, for "Webby", to sink double 10, (which got him out of jail an awful lot of times during the match, but his 120 outshot, shangaii in the first leg singled out his intent, and to the joyous chants of "Webbey" we have a new World Champion.
The joys of the BDO, new champions every year and I believe this man could do 3 in a row, his that good, his dangerously good!!.

On the heads up which was better World Final, I'd have to say the PDC one as I was at it, but the BDO one was a better standard FINAL!

I'll be at both next year so my view will be passive!

As we the fans say "Darts is the true Winner",

Remember, "IT'S IN THE AIM".

Joinig Bebo 12/01/08

It is 22.11, the night before the Lakeside World Professional Darts Championships, will it be "The Wizard of Oz" Simon Whitlock or the "Webby" Mark Webster??

I'm rooting for the latter as I feel if he does win it he could be a wildcard into the PDC Whyte & Mackay Premier League beginning on 31st Jan 08', which can only be good for darts fans but we'll have 2 wait and c!

Tiocfaidh ar Lá,

Go n-éiri libh!!
