Good lord, I just saw a photo of Daltry at the Superbowl. What on earth does he think he looks like?

Fascinating (and you will learn the meaning of burking)

The interubes seem very quiet today. Is this some kind of superbowl effect I wonder ?

Cadillac Sky on the bluegrass radio - simply amazing. Not heard of them of before I don't think. Sadly I note that their web page suggests that they have gone "from a critically-acclaimed Bluegrass band to a band without boundaries". That sort of thing is so often the kiss of death, but they may of course have become even better.

19:04:29
What a boon 3G and the iPhone (or similar) is : nothing on the wireless coming home so I just listened to Steel Radio on the net. No dropouts or buffering or anything. Perfect. Now I am listening to a bluegrass internet station off my iPod Tuch plugged into my stereo. Now all I need is a guarantee that they will only play records I like.....

Tired already of people ranting about how bad the iPad is - any expectations they had were entirely their own invention. Oh, and of people making tampon jokes - nobody ever made that joke about NotePad so why make it about this?

23:35:27
Turn off JavaScript and visit the holy land experience - there are all kind of half finished things and lorem ipsums on it. If you go with it turned on you get all kinds of crap that you really don't want to be bothered with at all.

We just got a xmas card from some friends in Canada. On the front there is a stamp saying "Missent to Guyana" : not some improvised stamp either but one that was clearly made for the sole purpose of marking mail in this way.....

Courtesy of the newly retired Len (too much time on his hands!), someone's "favourite christian thrillers" - there don't seem to be a lot of different story lines do there?

I just read a reference to someone who is a "writer of Christian thrillers". No, I have no idea either.
