Just in case anyone is interested I seem to have stumbled across “the web’s original, biggest and most comprehensive site dedicated to UK actress Anna Friel.”
Look at the imaginative colour scheme! Bask at the informative links! And look, you can even purchase an off-line copy so you can peruse it when you’re not on the internet. I don’t know about you but I’m hooked!

Following on from the original ‘Property Company Names’ segment of the website Audrey recently came across one which I believe is an almost, if not absolutely, perfect example of how to name your company properly:
‘Mr. Grumbley’s Window Cleaning Service’
It’s got everything: the guy’s name, what he does and suggesting the possibility that, despite it being his surname, he might not like it too. I’d grumble if I had to clean windows all day.
How about them apples?

I’m MC Hullah, I got lotsa moolah
I work wit’ grass skirts, it don’t get worse
Than dancin’ from side to side all day
I ride on a Harley, that means I’m not gay

There have been a number of funny or funnily-named things that I have come across recently. They mainly revolve around solicitors and clients names but hey, that’s the shit that I shovel man. First I found a firm of solicitors called Kevill’s however it gets better. There is now some solicitors called ‘Straine Keville’. Now, obviously this means nothing to the two solicitors who run the firm yet to us, well, it’s a perplexing image. Two client names that cropped up are:
The best name comes from a man who did some of the additional voices in Toy Story 2 though. This is a genuine name as well I must add and that man’s name was…
Rodger Bumpass.

It’s about time there was a post on here celebrating the wonder that is… gravy!
Yes, it’s everyone’s favourite kind of brown, meaty sauce and in a recent survey 79% of respondents said they preferred gravy. 87% said they would rather have gravy on their Sunday roast than hot piss. And in the Bible (Roasts 15:12) did Jesus himself not say “those who pour Bisto on their roast spuds are the most divine in thine eyes, o Lord”? Yes, I think he did.
In light of this, I am declaring this Pouring Beans National Gravy Week-a-thon and I aim to have some gravy at some point this week. Possibly just a big steaming mug of it with my breakfast. Oh yes.
Hooray for gravy!

I appear to have found the problem which has led to us being suspended several times by our wonderfully helpful host www.namehog.net
It turns out some scumbag calling himself “Noble” had loaded a php script onto our server and was using it to send 40,000 SPAM emails a day, which ultimately got namehog’s web server dns blacklisted. Not fun for them! If I ever met one of these sad little nerds who sends all this spam or writes crappy little viruses which achieve little more than pissing off IT admins, I’d like to skin them alive and dunk them in a vat of lemon juice, that’d stop the little bastards!
Ahem, rant over…

It’s nocturnal at the moment. Just after 3am kind of nocturnal. It’s got me thinking about the things you only ever do at night. Things like going to the toilet in the dark.
I am tired tonight and I want to go to bed. Unfortunately I will only be there in another 4 hours or so. Grrrr.
There’s nothing else I have to say so I’m going to make a list of interesting things going through my mind.
I’m going mad here.

I have heard the news gentlemen! It is a great pleasure to hear that finally a task set by me the Saint King, the king of all saints, of all that is good and saintly and saint and goodly, is complete!
Excellent stuff! I look forward to seeing the photos when they are ready to be uploaded. When the postal strike is over expect many, many jewels of splendour!

I was reminded of this word just now and I don’t know why. But remembering it also brings back other memories of things I can remember.
Like wrapping Kev’s car in tape. I remember that.
What can you remember? Can you remember anything?
