pissed off…

Someone published the bookies odds about the Trump presidency. You get very short odds on Trump not making it through the first term. I wonder what odds you get for him not making it TO the first term. If he can survive the next few days of scandals and accusations, surely someone can assassinate him, – Read More-

evidential…

An ex-public schoolboy (only in England is this phrase wrapped in stereotype) was trying to blackmail girls to either: (option A) pay £100 into his bank, or (B) have sex with him. Otherwise… (dramatic music), he would put photos of them on Facebook!!! I’m guessing these are compromising photos, rather than said gel with grandma – Read More-

crying shame…

There’s a new movie out either now or this week, not sure, been away, lost track. Its called La La Land and its a musical rom-com. Which is a brave movie to make, at massive cost, as the musical genre is kind’a done and over for decades. And most attempts to try and revive it – Read More-

back to work…

I’m going back to work tomorrow. If I can get in. The tube strikers have conspired to increase my holiday by calling a 24 hour strike from tonight til tomorrow night. They’re striking for… errr… well, they’re striking for ‘safety of the travellers’. Probably. That’s the normal reason. And you can’t complain about that, can – Read More-

Turned on my Kindle, nah, not tonight, turned off my Kindle and disappeared from the world of the conscious. Woke up at 2, Mel was already awake, slept til 4.

the age of aquarius…

Ya, Houston, we have a problem. Mel & I hardly ever argue. There’s no point. She’s stubborn as anything and I’m just the most annoying person you’d ever want to argue with. So for me its sport and then we laugh, or she punches me in frustration and gets her own way. Ha, ha, haaaa… – Read More-

the dean and I…

“Authorities are now worried about a new wave of terrorist attacks from ISIS.” Holy shit! Literally. Depending on your definition of ‘holy’, that is. I want to know how we’ll be able to discern this new wave from the old wave(s). At what point does Paris, Nice, Berlin become Istanbul? Are they different? Are some – Read More-
