about convincing a disguise as a giraffe in dark glasses trying to get into a polar bear only goth club

Ok, I used to have a rule, and it was this: “never post while drunk”. Long, and frequently painful, experience has taught me that things tend to get said, and things done, when I am drunk, that I will regret for ever and a day when sober. My sentence structure also goes even more to [...]

truly, what girl can resist being referred to as poultry?

The following was written whilst back at the Homestead. I meant to post it earlier on, but got trapped in wiki-hell. I am still in wiki-hell, but perhaps not the lowest circle. More around abouts the middle right now I think. *1*
Selamat Datang, dear readers.
That’s welcome/greetings in Malaysian, if you are curious. Why, you ask, [...]

the time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time

I’m not sure quite when these posts came more about what I found on the Internet lately rather than my thoughts etc, but I am detecting a definite trend here. Also not sure if this is a good thing, or a bad thing, but it’s happening, and I feel like going with the flow (so [...]

this here’s a spectacle that might warrant a moments consideration

For once, I really really have nothing much to say to y’all, other than the following:

i’m sitting here listening and already i’ve turned to a life of crime

The following post goes against the grain for me. I really don’t like getting involved in debates that involve religion, mainly due to the fact I am not totally sure what I believe myself, but the following piece by Polly Toynbee in today’s Guardian was just too much, so I have to say something.
The Guardian [...]

just so long as you return to the planet in time for lunch

Happy Thursday morning to you all In my endless efforts to do anything other than research, I bring you the following:
A couple of days ago, the BBC reported a study into why we don’t take the train more in the UK, saying that most people had a problem with the smaller stations. Ok, so [...]

if no one on the internet wants a piece of this, just how far from the pack HAVE you strayed?

Raisin Racing:
I was trying to explain this to Moose the other day, but she just looked at me funny and said that Virtual Pooh Sticks was better. The new flatmate got out of the kitchen as quickly as she could, positive that I am certifiable. Was it just my (admittedly slightly odd) family who used [...]

i smell something fishy and it isn’t the contents of baldrick’s apple crumble

You have to go to this site! Lots of adorable (but evil) penguins. Even pictures to download and everything! March of the Penguins film site
I live to serve: Spyware? Throw your PC away… (As a Mac user, I am currently feeling all smug and superior. THe feeling won’t last long, I am sure, but for [...]

Mashed Potato!

It was Jeff’s birthday yesterday, so in honour of that, I quickly (and rather badly) photoshopped the following 1:

Happy birthday for yesterday Jeff
And following in the humorous badger theme, enjoy the following: Atomic Badger Racing

Endnotes:
*1*Yes, I have my reasons. The thought of a Badger with a coke can on its nose is amusing. Ok, [...]

Race For Life 2

Well, I did it. I jogged, walked, and occasionally ran 5 km around the Common for Cancer Research UK.
To everyone that has sponsored me already, than you so much, and it is time to pay up if you haven’t already. Everybody else, there is still time to donate online at the secure site www.raceforlifesponsorme.org/brightmeadow.
