Stupid is as Stupid Does. (Places and Events)

And I Stupid Did.

I am a muppet. I am stupid. I am thick. There's no other way of putting it. Last Thursday my IQ dropped by 100%, just as I was trying to buy fuel.

Thursday lunchtime I had nipped out at lunchtime to get my ears lowered (hair cut), buy a sweatshirt, and then get a Boots meal deal.

Lost - The End is Nigh! (TV and Film)

An analysis of Lost the night before the finale is broadcast

I hate Lost.

I hate Lost with a passion. It is the single most frustrating piece of television ever devised.

Its Business Time (Music)

Again...

Well once again my playlist in the car, work and at home has been playing a lot of Flight of the Conchords music. The top 5 are Business Time, Think About It, Bowie, Leggy Blonde and The Most Beautiful Girl in the Room.

Mix in the odd Tim Minchin track and it gives me a smile all day long - along with a unhealthy and warped out look on well everything. Still ace tunes though.

103 (Places and Events)

The Number of the Beast! Possibly.

Donkeys years ago, before I became the libertarian anarchist I am today, I used to live in a house numbered '103'. In 1990 my family left that house behind and moved into new domiciles. But the number '103' wasn't finished with us yet.

If you've seen the film '23' starring Jim Carrey, it's much the same story for me, only my face isn't quite as rubbery.

Away Mission To Rome - Day One (Places and Events)

Where Stuff is Big! And Really, Really Old!

Do you ever look down at your feet while lying in bed and think "wow, that's how that's going to look on the gurney when I'm dead"?

Well, being a nervous flier, that's the gear my mind changes into a few days before blasting across the sky in a pressurised tube at 80% the speed of sound. This time, we were jetting to that city of ancient history, Rome! Or, 'Roma' as the locals call it. Poor sods, dyslexia must be rife on The Old Boot.

Dear Gordon Brown, You Owe Me Lots of Money. (Politics)

... You one eyed Scottish idiot...

If I started a business offering, lets say, cabbages, all shapes and sizes, lovely cabbages, but whenever somebody ordered one of my splendid green cabbages from my wonderful and very expensive marketing literature I delivered to them a small wind-up penguin toy, I don't think my business would last for very long. And yet this is exactly what the British Government is doing every single day.

Only... without the wind up penguins or cabbages.

and some stuff about cars...

In the beginning, and for the sake of brevity, there were only two types of cars in the whole world.

There were Land Rovers...

9/11 - We Want The Truth (General)

What really happened that tragic day?

Hi all and happy new year.

I've decided to take a bit of time between writing my next best seller to tackle a few conspiracy theories on behalf of LostJonnies. Where better to start than probably the most convincing of them all - What Really Happened on September the 11th 2001? As far as conspiracy theories go this has to be the one that will run and run until a number of disturbing irregularities are cleared up.
