Interference post U2?

[bonocomet]

Gg wasn't it something about a birthday present?

 

[corianderstem]

Well, that could really go either way.

Bono: "Happy Birthday, honey! For your present, I've saved you from further adventures in pregnancy and childbirth!"

or

Ali: "Hey, B! Guess what I'm you're getting for your birthday!"

 

[bonocomet]

I'm trying to remember now what it said in that interview. I know which one Gg means, but yeah it's been awhile. I want to say something about her winning it for him in a charity auction. But honestly I can't remember anymore.

 

[corianderstem]

.... she won him a vasectomy in an auction? That's ... um .... yeah, I don't even know.

 

[gvox]

I'm calling bullshit till I see something reliable in print.

 

[bonocomet]

Yeah and even if that is totally true it doesn't mean he actually DID it. It could have just been a fun gift for a good cause.

 

[theedgeu2]

It has to come from U2.com before I can believe it.

 

[corianderstem]

Okay, please tell me I'm totally misunderstanding what the heck you're talking about, because on no planet is a vasectomy a "fun gift."

A joke ya know!? I mean I could see her doing it if the $ was going to a cause they supported.

 

[bonocomet]

Okay I found this. So it seems he didn't have it done after all.

Yep, he's generous. U2's Bono has given away a gift his wife, Ali Hewson, purchased at a charity auction. The present? A voucher for a vasectomy. Bono heard a woman telling a Dublin talk show that the cost of vasectomies was preventing her husband from having one. Bono told the station he would give his surgical procedure to the couple.

 

[corianderstem]

Ohhhhh, okay.

 

[bonocomet]

At least I know I wasn't crazy for remembering it was both a gift and an auction.

 

[bonocomet]

Also, there is this.

with numbers gone, interference is dead anyway

Well that makes sense. Wasn`t one of their kids born in 2000 or something? I don't even remember but I know he's just a youngin, definitely not 15 or whatever...Elijah or Moses or Malachi or something..

One in 1999, one in 2001. Elijah and John.

See this is what happens when U2 isn't touring. EYKIW turns PLEBA. Can you imagine how it'll be when the boys have quit touring?

Now can we get back to oonts oonts since there was, in fact, no snip snip ?

Chances are you'll be waiting a while, if its for U2.com

This. (if you mean the guy with the half naked dude in as the avatar)

Gold.

I think the LSD thread is a good example on how Interference will be post U2.

 

[pepokiss]

maybe we all get a life... again

I think the LSD thread is a good example on how Interference will be post U2.

That would probably be one of the better threads then.
