Do Ye Know Ken More?

It seems I have been spending a little bit too much time with Ninjasaurus Rex over the past week. I don't think there was a day where we didn't have a liquid lunch, shopping trip or general get together over World War One terrain. It all culminated on Thursday with lunch together and then a trip to the cinema. In very different circumstances it would have been considered a lovely romantic day. However he is a 36 year old man and I am a 35 year old man and I find the idea quite nauseating. It's not because I'm a homophobe, cos I'm not, but you haven't seen what he looks like... I haven't seen him since Friday afternoon since I think his wife, Sarah, was getting suspicious and made him stay in for the weekend. The film we went to see on Thursday was The Hurt Locker. It comes very well recommenced and it certainly deserves its Oscar for best film. Which is also great because it was up against Avatar, so the win was a two fingers up to that steaming pile of shit and the Directer James Cameron as The Hurt Locker was directed by his ex-wife, Kathryn Bigelow.


Boom! Boom! Shake the room!

I went out last night with Mainy, Linzi and Joolia to celebrate Joolia's birthday. T'was a good night and I bumped into many people I haven't seen for a while. I got hideously drunk and ended up in Renoirs... Again. It's Mainy and Linzi's influence I tell thi. I awoke this morning with the fear that the house had been broken into at some point last night. Well that would be the only explanation as to why it felt like a tramp had shat in my mouth...

With only hazy memories of last night, this is how it easily could have ended. I'm not quite sure...

OK with not much else to tell you, I'll give out a few plugs to some blogs that I'm reading at the moment. First off is Logan Josh's seminal work on the fractious nature of humanity. That is when he's not writing boorish and drunk posts. Al Sithee is still harping on about Iceland. Please God will it ever end? Tarquin Sheen's blog is always very good once you get through the usual racist rhetoric. Owen updates about once a week, it seems to be less nowadays since he got himself a bird, but it's rightly amusing when he does. Hildemaus NEVER UPDATES, EVER! And neither does Mithraea. Ashley's updates are fairly regular and his stories are good, as are his descriptions of sleeping rough in the woods... And finally, this is not a blog but I haven't mentioned it before, here is the New Pylon Cafe. Run by the evil mastermind Darren Rea, it is a revamp of the much loved and much missed original Pylon Cafe. The original site's forum has now been turned into a Book by Danny Salter of which there are about six million different editions.
