Nutty enviro-MENTAL-ist Al Gore has been shouting all week about the huge Olympic Flame, burning away on top of the Birds Nest Stadium since the 2008 Olympic Games started, but no one has been paying any attention to him - even though he seems to have pushed through a series of bans, while most of the US congress were at home and asleep at four o'clock in the morning.
Finally, yesterday evening, a bunch of trees and pot plants attacked Gore by slapping him across the face with branches and leaves. About ten minutes into this thrashing a passing 'normal' human gave a animated larch a wet kipper, which it then proceeded to use on Gore, as it tried to knock some sense into him about the life giving gas that plants need to breath as they grow bigger and more bountiful and also produce more oxygen as a by-product.
An Olympic representative saw the entertaining beating and has decided to make it one of the events at the next games in London.
