Can’t think of an appropriate song title but…. I just had the quote over the photo at the top and the random song lyric match. Do I win?

Nothing But The Truth
October 7th, 2008 · Comments Off on Nothing But The Truth · Life
According to a ‘lifestyle survey’, as reported in the Crawley Observer: Students in West Sussex have admitted regularly binge drinking, taking drugs having sex and smoking. A follow-up survey into religious leanings and ursine toilet habits has also revealed the similarly shocking news that the Pope is a catholic and that bears shit in the […]

The other day, as I watched the end of David Gilmour’s concert in Gdansk, I was ridiculously amused by Gilmour’s comments to the crowd at the end.

Found A Job

I was a little gobsmacked while watching the BBC local news (for London – because that is what Virgin Media think is local to us here in West Sussex) about Kit Malthouse. I wasn’t really paying attention at first, so I may be a bit sketchy on some of the details, but as a member […]

You Got That Right

It’s good to see that Match of the Day’s pundit Mark ‘Lawro’ Lawrenson can be as inane in writing as he is on air. He has a weekly feature on the BBC Sport website where he predicts the results for the week’s Premier League games.  For each game he gives some opinions and says what […]
Too Much Pressure
October 4th, 2008 · Comments Off on Too Much Pressure · Life
Last week, while I was getting my dressing changed and wound inspected, the nurse mentioned that quite often the cause of abcesses is stress. Thinking about it, there have been a few other things wrong with me in the last month that can also be stress-induced: a couple of nosebleeds, irregular sleeping, lack of concentration […]

Hot Corner

Is there such a thing as ‘corn porn’?  if there wasn’t before, there certainly is now! See this clip from the Rachael Ray show on US TV. I may have to add “shucking” to the list of suggestive anti-spam words…
