I'm so hungry I could eat a horse?
I would like to eat horse. I feel as though if I haven’t even tried it then I’m almost deliberately misleading people every time I use that tried and true saying.
I’d say I’m quite an honest person, apart from those times that I accidentaly make up an entire story before realising they aren’t true (and I do tend to admit it once I realise, except when it’s...

An interview with Terry Pratchett →
A link to an interesting interview that effectively segues from ‘So, you have a new book ehh?’ to ‘So, assisted suicide ehh?’
I’m not exactly what I think on the matter, but alzheimers is pretty horrific so I don’t judge anyone who wants to end it.

Now I loved Lost, but that doesn’t mean this isn’t darn funny!
So I was just toasting some crumpets and I realised something pretty spectacular.
We’re always taught not to put a knife in a toaster or you’ll get electrocuted. Following some kind of twisted logic based on that fact I would appear to have started pushing crumpets to the bottom of the toaster by hand.
Maybe, just maybe, I need to find a better way than to put my finger in a live...

So I’m about to embark on an epic adventure. I have a friends laptop that I’m reinstalling windows on, the problem being that the windows key is damaged so I’m having to fill in the blanks myself.
Most are characters that could be 8 or B, I’m really beginning to hate those 2 characters….
I have at least 144 possible combinations (possibly 288) of CD-keys to try so...
So I just did the strengthfinders questionaire. I got

I have to say, context and individualisation were a surprise. The rest I expected though.
After having a quick dig you can see why Karens voice acting sounded so empty. She seems to be talking as though it’s a first readthrough, no commitment. Matt of course getting fully into it, crazy fool. Watch from around 3:45 to see what I’m talking about.

Doctor
Doctor who?
Yes :D
This joke brought to you by the news that the new Doctor Who Videogame is now available to download from the BBC website. Haven’t checked it out yet, first impressions i’ve heard have been that it’s fun but Karen Gillens voice acting is a bit devoid of feeling, also the minigames might be a bit too frustrating.

Not only is it laugh out loud funny on occasion, but inbetween the big gags there’s enough to keep you chuckling. If anything the chuckling is a harder target to reach than the big laughs, kudos Date Night, kudos.

The pizza Calculation
I had reheated takeaway pizza for lunch today, it was glorious! It got me thinking, is it cheaper to buy a big batch of takeaway pizza or get it from tesco. So I looked into it, the current situation, without looking for better deals, is this.
Tesco pizza
3 x 9” Deep Pan = £5
Takeaway pizza
2 x 16” Deep Pan = £11.99
Assuming the pizzas are the same depth it’s easier to...

Is numbness shooting from the top of your head to your fingertips followed by a few seconds of total uncontrolled dizzyness a bad thing to have? I’m kinda hoping sleeping for a few hours after ‘hand in’ will fix it :)
I have been following you since 2005. and you never cease to amaze me.

I’m finally getting around to doing the design document for my final year project. Of course i’ve already built it, I blasted through it this week. But ‘apparently’ my assessors want to think I designed it before I started!
The irony is that I avoided this stage for months because it was ‘pointless and boring’, but now that i’m doing it i remember...

I got new shoes! Both a blessing and a curse. Does anyone else fall in love with the shiny newness, only to be let down when they inevitably stop being so clean they practically glow in the dark!
If I were rich I would buy all my shoes in bulk and replace them monthly, sell the old ones, and give all that sale money to charity! That way my money could be used for both disgustingly wasteful rich...

I had a plan for tomorrow (today?).
get up early and be productive before 10am.
However it’s 3:30AM and I’ve spent the last 2 hours failing to get to sleep. It’s more than a little frustrating.
I now set off on a quest to find something to do for an hour or so that will leave me able to sleep when I’m done. I then need to be up before 9 (well looking at the time, 10...

An email from my mother
Researchers have discovered the heaviest element yet known to science. The new element, Governmentium (symbol=Gv), has one neutron, 25 assistant neutrons, 88 deputy neutrons and 198 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 312.
These 312 particles are held together by forces called morons, which are surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called pillocks. Since...

The reasons to get an iphone when my contract runs out just seem to keep piling up! Luckily by the time it does they will probably be cheaper :)
Damn and blast! (that filthy stinking fox… I shall read Fantastic Mr Fox when I go home next week) Was so close to starting work before noon. Went to set up in the kitchen at 5 to and it was filled with acrid smoke :(
Some buffoon had turned on the grill and left it empty. I very nearly had to use the fire extinguisher! Luckily the grill pan wasn’t in there, so there wasn’t much...
Well I managed to get up at 8:30 on a saturday!
