If it’s in a city and I won’t see the driver again, I just call him a fat poofy cunt, as I alight in a flurry of V signs.

Ah, the old "have a cup of tea dear" in 1972's Derry (or Londonderry if Derry causes offence :D ). Old soldiers would tell you about the cups of tea with ground glass in them but it was a load of bollox, ground glass just sinks to the bottom. What else might have been in the tea though was anybody's guess. :D

Alice Cooper is just a stage act. In real life he's Vince Furnier, plays a lot of golf and wears 'slacks'.

According to wikipaedia he changed his legal name to Alice Cooper.
