*Muinteoir Voted Man Of The Minute*
BN Mainstay The Muinteoir is today celebrating his remarkable success at last nights glittering BN awards ceremony in Monaco.

The Rasta man swept away all comers as he went home with a record haul of 7 awards from a possible 8 nominations. These included BN Man of the Year, BN Woman of the year, Original Ites Mutual Windus Respect award, Free your mind award, Free your child award, BN child of the year and the prestigious James Gibbons memorial award awarded to the person who most personifies the James Gibbons spirit.

Rankin Rez, as he is also known, has been on the books of the BN since the very beginning. In fact, his help in the early stages of the BN is recorded in Ceb's autobiography 'Taking the easy way out - the life and times of Ceb'. "The Muinteoir is another guy without whom I would probably be a successful lawyer instead of the worthless drunk that I am. He was instrumental in bringing the BN online, being the webmaster of the first ButtNuggetCrew.com incarnation. Now, he supports the BN even though he lost the use of his legs in a Raggae related incident and must degrade himself every day by rolling through Dublin in a zipper 2 model wheelchair, the best

model his meagre pittance of a wage can allow. He is just another reason why I choose to drink my life away. Thanks Mooney. Thanks alot."

The Rasta man was moved to tears as he picked up award after award, the entire night a fitting tribute to almost a decade of hard work and dedication to the BN way of life.

The night wasn't all positive for BN however as the The Bean and long time cohort Sheridan were notably booing the Muinteoir as he wheeled himself to the stage to collect his awards. At one point, television cameras caught Sheridan aiming a pistol in the direction of the Rastarizer as Double B looked on smiling. Neither man has been available for comment as of yet.

Mooney however in true rankin positivity style refused to let the small minded bigotry of the Bean get to him instead issuing the statement 'Irie Ites' to the waiting paparazzi who had been waiting all night outside the grand palace ballroom in Monaco for a glimpse of this reclusive yet ever popular star.

Other winners on the night included Senior in the 'Mindless destruction (MD)' category, Beardo in the 'Convicted hairy apeist on the run' category and DJackulate in the controversial 'Why is my life over' category.
