Zinzin has pointed out that there is to be a memorial service to mark the 10th anniversary of Princess Diana's death. And he asks, What about Dodi? After all, he was killed in the same car crash and was Diana's latest partner.
So, I suggested in his comments to honour Dodi's death as well, we ought to change the saying from "Dead as a Dodo" to dead as a Dodi...

UPDATE UPDATE:
The Dodi Al-Fayed Prayer.
Our Dodi Al-Fayed, who art in heaven,
Dodi Al-Fayed be thy name.
Thy time has come,
thy will be ignored,
on earth as it is in heaven
Give us this day our Daily Express.
And forgive us our French Underpasses,
as we forgive the driver who crashed and killed us.
And lead us not into another tunnel,
but deliver us from Henri Paul.
For thine is the Mercedes Benz,
the power and the glory. remember me for ever and ever.
Amen
UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE: The Sunday Times publishes The Dodi Al-Fayed Prayer
A mixture of law, politics, autobiography and humour. Once described as "The Devilish Advocate" (Guardian), I do have the ability to provoke a response. Sometimes it comes from someone who uses a thought process, and sometimes from jerks usually associated with the knee.
My technorati ratings have gone up one notch, Thanks you.
ReplyDeleteZinzin: My pleasure.
ReplyDeleteWhilst any premature death is sad, the answer to this particular question must also be "What about Dodi?"
