So, once again, a shaven area of Britney Spears’ body has grasped the attention of the blogging sphere (or whatever the cool kids are calling it these days). I can’t remember where I first saw this, so I’m satisfying Raincoaster’s lust for power by linking to her report here.
Anyway, so Rain does point out a [...]

So, indeed, I did watch the Science of Sleep the night before last. I enjoyed it massively, in fact it was an incredibly personally affective film for me. A little nerve-wracking almost, for all the naive silliness that goes on. I’ll explain in a moment.
First off let me mention that the french title is shown [...]

So, it’s miles off from the full moon and everything’s gone a little weird.
I think I’m having fun. In principle at least.
I keep on not thinking about what I’m saying and just splurging random sentences based on things I can see or smell or am remembering. Poor Mr Subliminal had to put up with me [...]

So, I haven’t read the rest of the paper yet, but the front page of the guardian says that the US reckon it’s important to look into blocking out the Sun in order to save us all from global warming. Now, all of us Sci Fi geeks know that a certain member of the Clan [...]

So, for the second time in one week I’ve woken up with virtually no idea what I did towards the end of the night. No idea.
I can only assume I was being a wanker. This happens to me a lot.
Anyway, anyone with clues as to how big a tit I was being last night, should [...]

So, this is going to be a bit scatty even by my standards. Loads of stuff keeps on flying through my mind the last few days…I’m just going to jot some bits and pieces down to keep the desperate howling hounds at bay (Sahil…I mean you).
This isn’t one of the big articles I have planned. [...]

So, I’ve got a lot to talk about to day…and people are requesting details, so there’s going to be a few posts today. I might be busy at the weekend so I might not post much then, we’ll see though. It always just depends on whether I have anything worth saying.
Anyway, on with the show.
Basically [...]

So the beast from the black lagoon appears to have ‘tagged’ me with some silly chain letter/meme style nonsense. I’m going to do it, but I can’t be arsed to pass it along.
Anyway, basically Its just putting 6 weird things about yourself. I’ve been having paroxysm’s about this all day (and I’m not even sure [...]

God…that title looks boring.
Anyway, basically, I’m going to do a half arsed version of an essay I’ve been intending to do for ages. But because its Sunday, I’m not going to do any research, and I’m probably going to stop halfway through to start tidying up my room.
Still, at least I’ve got an NWA quote [...]

Nanowrimo meet up last night. The big thank fuck its over celebration.
Good times….but now my head is paying its dues.
Its when the front of your head is in agony and it feels like your brain is actually trying to flee the skull. I think its planning on handing in its notice. I can just see [...]

So, after yesterday’s post accidentally slipped into a maudlin meditation on my musical needs. I ended up sending an e-mail that carried on talking about music even more. I’m just reposting a chunk of what I said there here. Then I’m going to carry on talking about music.
That Okay with you crazy kids?
Good.
It just came [...]

So, first up the good bit. I’ve finished my Nano. Well that’s not entirely true. I got to the 50K boundary after which I could call myself a winner. I dived over the cliff and through the finish line with a wonderful woman I have never met called CJ (I know her name but believe [...]

Something different. Here we explore the link between me being silly and me not having had enough sleep.
Basically, after the previously mentioned gig, I didn’t get enough sleep and had to get the train back to Brighton. Lovely journey, because I was so happy to see everybody from back home. (Gig was incredible by the [...]

So, I’ll start off by saying I know next to nothing about US Politics. But this bought a smile to my face. Everything I know about Rumseld indicates he’s an absolutely reprehensible idiot. I just found out that Nixon..that’s right Nixon…the ‘unholy pig fucker’ (HST) himself…called this guy ruthless and evil (or something similar)…I mean…seriously…jsut [...]

As an apology for being so self obssessed, here’s some links to some clever things from our man Drake.
Keep it up Lads, I’d be lost without. Also Check out Subliminal’s article on the Q awards.
This is just to make sure that you are aware that other people exist.
For they do.

Oh, and happy Guy Fawkes Night [...]
