You were excessively vowelled. Not cool. They fixed your name, though.

LOL. I still want to take credit for the 'Mazda' tag, even if no-one noticed the first time.

Maybe because I said it txtspeek and it didn't add anything useful to society.

Thank you Jill and Dex, for a lovely afternoon.

After mentioning Sheila E earlier, I went off and found her website. There are a couple of short clips on it, one of which got me thinking about drumming so I dug out the Riverdance video again and had the very great pleasure of watching the sublime, incomparable Maria Pagés once more.

I was there on the night it was taped and the waves of thunder coming off the stage were incredible. My date was a Latin American dance teacher from England, she said she'd never seen anything like it.

"A Love Bizarre" indeed. Have it on 12" single, played it to death in my DJ days. Ah, Memories... Ta.

Yes but the fact that you used text language, even in jest, nullifies any claims you have to it. Also, you indirectly compared him to John Wayne without even realising it.

Someone just emailed me this story - remember the punchline for the next time someone accuses you of being a potential 'violent killer' because you play airsoft...!!

For those that don't know him - Major General Peter Cosgrove is an 'Australian treasure!'

General Cosgrove was interviewed on the radio recently. You'll love his reply to the lady who interviewed him concerning guns and children. Regardless of how you feel about gun laws you gotta love this! This is one of the best comeback lines of all time. It is a portion of an ABC interview between a female broadcaster and General Cosgrove who was about to sponsor a Boy Scout Troop visiting his military headquarters.

FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
So, General Cosgrove, what things are you going to teach these young boys when they visit your base?

GENERAL COSGROVE:
We're going to teach them climbing, canoeing, archery and shooting.

FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
Shooting! That's a bit irresponsible, isn't it?

GENERAL COSGROVE:
I don't see why, they'll be properly supervised on the rifle range.

FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
Don't you admit that this is a terribly dangerous activity to be teaching children?

GENERAL COSGROVE:
I don't see how. We will be teaching them proper rifle discipline before they even touch a firearm.

FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
But you're equipping them to become violent killers.

GENERAL COSGROVE:
Well, Ma'am, you're equipped to be a prostitute, but you're not one, are you?

The radio went silent and the interview ended.

I've just realised there's a bb lodged perfectly in one of the little screw hole bits on the bottom of my laptop.

Says it all, really.

I bet that guy shaves his face with a woman. Just an actual, sharpened woman. That's how manly he is. Needs moar gun, too.

Which reminds me, an artist's rendering of the ongoing Win Butler/ Wayne Coyne feud -

As you were.

Horus? Really? I don't like the guy but that's a bit harsh?

Unless of course, he's said something bad about Sarah that I haven't heard of?

No one would ever dare do such a thing, Dex. Not about Sarah Neufeld. I mean, dude - she's Sarah Neufeld.

Yes, that General Peter Cosgrove, AC, MC (Retd. 2005) doesn't suffer fools gladly. Nothing like an Aussie for a bit of plain speaking when necessary. And sometimes when not necessary either.

Funny, it was a General Reinwald who said it when I heard that story last...

I would, right this second, suffocate an adorable orphan baby seal to see that band again.

And they're Canadian, so they'd probably appreciate it.

Nothing says "creepy fan-love" quite like a small mound of preposterously cute little corpses.

Anyone for a coat? You can wear it to the next concert in case it's outdoors and cold.

A coat like that would finally give me an excuse to get a cane and a pimp hat.

I was just watching this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6V41qkhU-98

And found myself thinking that I wouldn't care if Win Butler spent the last third of the song spitting used needles at me, it'd still be awesome. Although if he did, they'd probably be the best used needles ever. The kind that give people joy instead of, you know, life threatening blood-borne infections.

'Cause he's cool that way.

Hmm.

I'm doing a sponsored bungee jump soon for a depression charity soon, and I can't help feeling that perhaps more thought could have gone into the choice of stunt/ choice of charity...

Sarah though, she wanted to **** Coldplay up bad, I swear man, that girl’s got violence in her heart. That’s why she doesn’t get a megaphone, she just yells racial slurs at the crowd all through the show, and we have young kids up front who don’t need to hear that ****. She scares the **** out of me sometimes. I mean she rocks that violin and all, but she draws these pictures, I can’t tell you how ****ed up they are.

See that? I find that endearing as a quality.

I'd be wary. Despression based bungee jumping usually has the stipulation of the rope only being tied to you and nothing else. Pack a 'chute.

It's the jump site with van marked Soylent Green I'd be more worried about.

It's being organised by the college. Having eaten in the college canteen, I think it's safe to say Soylent Green would be a marked improvement.

That's because students don't taste great to start with due to their diet of chips, beer and things eaten for bets/dares.

But I'm a student, I like things that taste like chips and beer.

The day I discovered beer-battered chips, I cried tears of molten joy.
