Ok if you dont know about the headline you’ve never heard of the Australian indie supergroup Godstar - who I must admit are in my top four bands of all time - with the lyric being shamelessly stolen from their “Glasgow EP” . I no longer work in Glasgow and instead now turn right at the bottom of the road rather than left and work through in Edinburgh. So no longer shall I be seeing any Glasgow girls on Glasgow double decker busses. and judging by my drunken antics on Friday nights I’m not sure that I’ll be allowed with a ten mile radius of Scotlands other capital for quite some time.

Thank fook the LinkMunki (the LinkMunki holds court over here) sent me a link to the Chrome extension called “Glow” which lets you change the Google logo to anything you want

In his honour mine now shows thus:

Off to do some work - whilst listening to the rain batter off the windows like a muppet on a drum kit.

Pedro wrote about kitchen gadgets earlier on today - he sits opposite me at work and said he’d blogged at lunchtime. Anyway I started looking for some of the coolest pics of girls in kitchen I could find to rip off for a post so here goes.

Pancakes have never been so much fun

Criticised for not being a sickening sham didn't stop Sophie in the kitchen

Ok now I better get back to work!

Right, having not blogged for ages purely on the basis I couldn’t find the mental strength to wade through the crap spam comments I get too often to be human - I even got one about the Pentecostal Church (which has freaked the day out completely). So I thought I’d start off my blogging again with nothing more completely derivative that listing some of my favourite YouTube videos (the kinda stuff you see at Viral Video Film School on current TV). But as I don’t do PodCasting, VodCasting or Shark catching with giant fucking net catching I thought I’d just stick up some stuff I’m finding in semi real time. Duly I’m sticking in the words I can pick out from the songs I’m listening to on my iPhone whilst at my work. I’m shit with the Youtube plugin so bear with me.

Frank Turner - Thatcher Fucked the kids

Me and my big mouth - no doubt this is going to cause me no end of issue with people but this is what is on.

Lyric I inputted into YouTube, “it’s no surprise all the fuck ups”. Right the ideas dead can’t find shit on youtube for this except screeds about SlipKnot, Wu Tang Clan and Reel Big Fish. FFS. YouTubes shit. Seems to keep telling me I should be watching videos about Gordon “shut the fuck up or I’ll throw a fax machine at your head” Brown, David “I’m Maggie in a man suit” Cameron and Trisha Fucking Goddard (oh and yes that is her real name).

Duly I’m just going to stick up some images of stuff I’ve seen and some links

• Who decided that this was a good domain name! http://www.therapist.com/ oh and http://www.choosespain.com also is stupid
• Pearl Lowe clothing - She was in that band Powder, was/is/don’t care if she still may be married to the daft drummer from SuperGrass. That said here daughter is hot, cheers to http://whatclothestowear.wordpress.com/2010/04/20/pearl-lowe-spring-summer-2010/ for the pic below.
  

  Daisy Lowe - grrrrrrrrr

• Tramp juice, sadly no longer writing. they havn’t for ages but I don’t care. Anyone who writes about the joys of Super Lager, premium strength cider and buckfast deserves knighting.
• I keep getting told to make lists of five or three things as readers like them but four seems a better number. If the devil is six, then god is seven so today number brought to you by Sesame Street is four. As such here’s photographic evidence that Cameron is Thatcher (and not in a Doctor Who kinda way) http://www.guardian.co.uk/artanddesign/gallery/2010/apr/28/general-election-2010-peoples-posters?picture=361972154

Off to smoke. Will post normal stuff next week assuming you don’t spam me too hard

Ok few things make me laugh like some ill thought out content. I’m sure when the nice people at Falkirk FC, whom I support, put online their press release about the new management team of Eddie May, Stephen Pressley and Alex Smith they thought it was a great idea. Unfortunately they didn’t notice the misspelling on the page. They have now fixed the page - but I got a screen grab before this point! 

New Falkirk Football Club Management Team

Yep they decided to refer to Alex SMith and Stephen Pressley as “Ass to Head Coach” which sounds somewhere between a kicking post and something your girlfriend would kill you for asking her to try as a bit of excitement in the bedroom!

Some times the simplistic brutality of a song time encompasses a whole concept and needs little explanation. I think this is one of them.
Thatcher Fucked the Kids by Frank Turner does remind me of Billy Bragg (not sure thats a good thing or not) but at the same time has made me smile. the song title is almost as good as “Bring me the head of Michael Portillo” by the Family Cat.

I still prefer the sheer hatred and anger of “IFWHITEAMERICATOLDTHETRUTHFORONEMINUTEITSWHOLEWORLDWOULDFALLAPART” by the Manic Street Preachers.

I have no idea who these folks are but they make some kick ass websites. Lovely to look at anyway. They’re called Gelo Factory and they make the kind of websites that are a joy to wander through.

Joe’s Jeans

Joe’s Jeans sell clothes would you believe but they have some of the cutest models I’ve seen on a fashion site for a while. When was the last time you saw a girl hitching up her skirt on the homepage of a fashion site? On that point when was the first time? Joe’s Jeans do - and she’s hot.
