I've got very little to say for myself today other than that I've recently been spending the arse-end of my evenings on YouTube and am currently particularly amused by the Dead Ringers take on Torchwood.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought those things about the Doctor Who spin-off.
Well, the outstanding furniture has finally arrived.
Of course, when I say outstanding, I am referring merely to the furniture that I had not yet received, and not anything of any remarkable quality or design – we are talking cheap flat-packed tat again, after all.
Even so, I had ordered everything in "beech", hoping that it would all match; but I noticed that it wasn't all quite the same colour.
My friend's comment on the subject?
(Very profound, it was.)
"Yes, well, one man's beech is another man's… not beech."
Beautifully articulated, I'm sure you'll agree. Fortunately, he's a lot more gifted with power tools.
I have in front of me the box for Real World Golf on the PS2.
For those of you who are not familiar with this particular game, this is a console golf game that you can play with a mini golf club, instead of with a traditional controller.
It's especially impressive since – as stated on the game box – it's
"the revolutionary golf game where you swing a club to hit the ball."
What an incredible idea. Revolutionary indeed!
It's amazing, really, that conventional golf is apparently not played that way.
We were in the local supermarket tonight, buying some coffee, and a boy of about nine came up beside us, studied the ground coffee, and exclaimed "Yes! Yes! Yes!" very excitedly.
Typically, there turned out to be a really boring and uninteresting reason for this; but it was amusing for a while.
Quiet day, today. Sorry.
I can't make stupid stuff happen.
Well, obviously, that's not entirely true – I make stupid stuff happen all the time. This is part of my charm.
But that doesn't mean that the stupid stuff I make happen is stuff I'd necessarily want to share; so, for the purposes of this blog, today was a quiet day where nothing stupid happened at all.
Now, I can see why food companies might think it a good idea to market their healthier foods by drawing attention to the benefits of a better diet, but I do question somebody's decision to plaster a huge You Are What You Eat slogan across a packet of Fruit and Nut Mix.
