Pink Floyd Reunion

Four members of seminal British rock band Pink Floyd will play together for the first time in 24 years at London's "Live 8'' charity concert for Africa. The Live 8 concert is one of five taking place around the world on July 2.

Guitarist David Gilmour, drummer Nick Mason and keyboard player Richard Wright will be on stage with bassist Roger Waters for their first public performance since they played at London's Earls Court in 1981. Waters, the group's creative force, quit in 1985 and unsuccessfully tried to prevent his bandmates from using the Pink Floyd name.

The rock legends will join a star-studded line-up including Coldplay, Elton John, Madonna, REM and Paul McCartney at the Live 8 concert in London's Hyde Park, organized by activist rocker Bob Geldof to pressure rich nations to ease African poverty.

"Like most people, I want to do everything I can to persuade the G8 leaders to make huge commitments to the relief of poverty and increased aid to the Third World,'' said Gilmour.

"Any squabbles Roger and the band have had in the past are so petty in this context, and if reforming for this concert will help focus attention then it's got to be worthwhile.''

The band released its first album, "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn,'' in 1967 with founding member Syd Barrett on lead guitar, alongside Waters, Mason and Wright. At the beginning of 1968, guitarist Gilmour - a friend of the band -was brought in as a fifth member and Barrett left the group shortly afterward. Pink Floyd broke records with 1973's "The Dark Side Of The Moon,'' which remained in the American album charts for more than a decade.

After Waters left, Gilmore, Mason and Wright launched two hugely successful world tours. They released their last studio album "The Division Bell'' in 1994.

Tuesday Gag

There was this couple that had been married for 20 years. Every time they made love the husband always insisted on turning off the light. Well, after 20 years the wife felt this was ridiculous. She figured she would break him out of this crazy habit. So one night, while they were in the middle of a wild, screaming, romantic session, she turned on the lights. She looked down... and saw her husband was holding a battery-operated pleasure device... a vibrator! Soft, wonderful and larger than a real one. She went completely ballistic. You impotent bastard," She screamed at him, "How could you be lying to me all of these years? You better explain yourself!" The husband looks her straight in the eyes and says calmly: I'll explain the toy........if you explain the kids."

Thursday humour...

A man walks into his bedroom and sees his wife packing a suitcase. He asks, "What are you doing?"

She answers, "I'm moving to Sydney. I heard prostitutes there get paid $400 for doing what I do for you for free."

Later that night, on her way out, the wife walks into the bedroom and sees her husband packing his suitcase.

When she asks him where he's going, he replies, "I'm coming too, I want to see how you live on $800 a year".

Rude....but still funny

Go Jennifer!!!

The Rooster Jigsaw

A blonde calls her boyfriend and says, "Please come over here and help me. I have a killer jigsaw puzzle, and I can't figure out how to get started.

Her boyfriend asks, "What is it supposed to be when it's finished?"

The blonde says, "According to the picture on the box, it's a rooster."

Her boyfriend decides to go over and help with the puzzle. She lets him in and shows him where she has the puzzle spread all over the table.

He studies the pieces for a moment, then looks at the box, then turns to her and says, "First of all, no matter what we do, we're not going to be able to assemble these pieces into anything resembling a rooster."

He takes her hand and says, "Secondly, I want you to relax. Let's have a nice cup of tea, and then.....", he said with a deep sigh, "Let's put all these Corn Flakes back in the box."
