Yet another Quiz

Published by Fence under Pointless

You are a Philosopher!


Hmmmm… You’re an idiot because you constantly think about the meaning of life, and why exactly we’re all here. You more than likely have thought up a complex explanation, but most people think you’re wrong (and you probably are).

Finally

Published by Fence under Shiny

Got my fee back. Yipee, money for spending on whatever I want. So I bought stuff (it’s money, what else is it good for). Got a new phone, a Sagem MyV-65 (I’d include a link but bloody Vodafone’s website is acting up. Again. Then some memory for Pavlov as well as one of them USB memory sticky things. Also purchased clothes, dvds and books what more do I need?

More Joyce

Published by Fence under Books

A while back I mentioned the copyright dispute over reading Joyce’s work in the upcoming Bloomsday celebration. Today John at Crooked Timber has an article on changes in copyright length.

What Book Are You?

Published by Fence under Pointless



I’m Watership Down!
by Richard Adams
Though many think of you as a bit young, even childish, you’re
actually incredibly deep and complex. You show people the need to rethink their
assumptions, and confront them on everything from how they think to where they
build their houses. You might be one of the greatest people of all time. You’d
be recognized as such if you weren’t always talking about talking rabbits.

Jonathan Wild

Published by Fence under Shiny

Got this month’s edition of Discworld monthly in my inbox just now. In it was a reference to Jonathan WIld who lived in London in the 1700’s. A thief, he set up a guild of thieves and law-breakers. Members who didn’t conform were reported/delivered up to the authorities.
So it aint all made up then :)

Music Randomness

Published by Fence under Books, Music, Pointless

While on Neil Gaiman’s site last week I came across a question asking Neil to put his ipod onto random and reveal the first ten songs. Well, I don’t have an ipod, but figured I’d do the same with my media player. And the results:

1) Can’t get you out of my head - Jack L (yes that is the Kylie song, but reinterpreted… okay a cover version)
2) El Tango de Roxanne - Ewan McGregor; Jacek Koman; José Feliciano from the Moulin Rouge soundtrack
3) Cry me a river - Glen Hansard (another cover)
4) Cannonball - Damien Rice
5) Mad World - Gary Jules; Michael Andrews
6) My Sarah - Thin Lizzy
7) Gollum’s Song - Torrinim Emiliana
8) Beautiful Day - U2
9) Shape - Sugarbabes
10) Crazy in Alabama - Kate Campbell
