Glasgow Hero John Smeaton Has A Web Site

*Update* We have another Glasgow hero: The taxi driver who kicks balls.

The Glasgow airport baggage handler John Smeaton (sometimes misspelled "Smitten"), who gave a burning terrorist a good right-hander, has become a hero. And an Internet Phenomenon.

At this web page they're honoring him and collecting money for a party. "The country needs to see 1,000 pints lined up behind the bar of the Glasgow Airport Holiday Inn with John Smeaton’s name on them":

Only Forty people have ponied up £3 to buy John a pint through Paypal.

Let me ask you this. Is this any way to treat a national hero? Is this how you want the man who said, “You’re nae hitting the Polis mate, there’s nae chance”, to be remembered? Is that how you want John to go down in history?
He will be remembered as the hero he is. Check out some of the revealing details:
Once a cobra bit John Smeaton’s leg. After five days of excruciating pain, the cobra died.

John Smeaton doesn’t read books. He stares them down until he gets the information he wants.

It was once believed that John actually lost a fight to a terrorist, but that is a lie, created by John himself to lure more terrorists to him.

John Smeaton can strangle you with a cordless phone.
Heh. Much more in the link.
