In a stunning revelation on the national airwaves last night, Pat Spillane, the former Kerry Footballer and current TV Gaelic games pundit announced his discovery of a new naturally occurring drug which produces feelings of euphoria and the ability to walk on air.
Using the term “endo-morphine” as a name for his discovery, Mr. Spillane is understood to be in discussions with a number of pharmaceutical companies about licencing opportunities, although the GAA, Croke Park and seat-holders in the Nally and Hogan stands are also cited as having minority interests in any proposed venture.
A spokesperson for one of the pharma giants party to the discussions stated that the current nomenclature “endo-morphine” might need some brand reworking in order to avoid confusion with the neuro-transmitter endorphin.
It appears that neither the Plank or Grumpy, who accompanied Mr. Spillane to the unscheduled announcement, will be taking positions on the board of the new enterprise.
Church authorities were not available to comment on whether the new drug infringed their existing patents regarding the ability to walk on water.
