Some people in this world are just assholes. There is no better word to describe them.
Tokyo
There are two return tickets to Tokyo on my desk.
It was a good way to start the day.
Strange Times
Everything is a little strange at the moment. I really don’t know how else to describe it. I don’t really feel like talking about anything either. I don’t know why.
:
I watched the first episode of the third season of CSI tonight and I quite enjoyed it. The pilot for CSI: Miami was not great though. Emily Procter is very cute and that is a good thing 🙂 Looking forward to more Buffy tomorrow and I’ll have to get around to catching up on Enterprise at some stage.

Pretty like Drugs
In vein, I seek farther, the needle closer, the little.. end.
The world is watching as I take my last breath. The world is watching as i get undressed, cos I’m pretty like drugs.
The world is watching as my wings unfurl. The world is watching the death of a girl, cos I’m pretty like drugs.
I load the gun and I’m out of the world, and I take it harder, coz oh.. pretty oh.. pretty like drugs. I load the gun.
The world is watching with a pregnant pause, the world is watching as I fuck to applause. The world is watching as I plant the last seed. The world is watching me watching tv., cos I’m pretty like drugs.
I load the gun, I wax and wane, subject all of my pain, onto you baby, coz I’m pretty like drugs.
If it’s on the Onion, it has to be true
Think You Have a Book in You? Think Again
The new trailer for The Lord of the Rings: The Tow Towers is fucking awesome

New template
isn’t really ideal…and by “isn’t really” I mean its shit. I still have no idea what to do with this. Yes I will be updating my CSS soon.
Lunch
I had lunch with Iain today and we were just chatting away. We happened…ok I happened to be talking about one of the girls we met on Friday night and for some reason I commented that she was a “cute latino girl”. Iain just replies “ah I think I’ve got your type now” and I just went “huh”. In one of his better lines, the answer was simply “female with a pulse”
🙂
Further thought.
I was thinking about a post I made on Friday over the weekend. I was thinking that given the number of bugs that were fixed in such a short period that perhaps we should never have gotten to such a stage. There had been a couple of comments made and I was giving them some thought. But I realised something. It was all bollocks. If every bug that I had fixed had been my responsibilty then maybe that comment would have been fair. But given that of the bugs I fixed the vast majority were not in fact assigned to me and indeed a number were assigned to the person who made the same comment, I don’t think I feel the need to give it another moments thought.
Channel 5 showed the pilot of The Shield last night and it was not bad at all. It could turn out to be a very decent cop drama.
Through early morning fog I see…
…visions of the things to be
the pains that are withheld for me
I realize and I can see…
I watched M*A*S*H earlier tonight. Virgin had the special edition in their 2 for £20 sale so I picked it up yesterday. I had seen some of it before, years ago. I don’t remember enjoying it but then I turned off Catch 22 about give minutes into it a few years ago. So I figured what the hell. I am a fan of the tv series, it had some really top notch episodes especially the finale. So I should like and enjoy the movie right? Well the only thing I can really say is I don’t find it funny. Nothing in it made me laugh outload. A couple of moments might have gotten a grin, but nothing made me laugh. Maybe I’m missing something. I have the first two seasons of the tv show on the way on DVD and I know I will laugh at them.
