Mmmmm... Gold Class

Just got home from seeing The Boat That Rocked in Gold Class. Cool movie, BTW. I'll review it properly next week.
I think the whole night ended up costing about $350, by the time we were done making merry. And that was for just me and Secondborn (he...

Bad Sex Awards 2008

Last year's Literary Review's Bad Sex in Fiction Awards took place on the 25th November. It's not like me to miss them. They fill me with hope that I am not the worst writer of sex scenes on the planet.

I've really started something!

Went looking f...

Will I go to Hell for thinking this is funny?

Apparently, a Philadelphia cable network's stuffed up their early morning broadcast of a Good Friday mass from the Vatican when it abruptly changed - mid service - to a 30-second "Girls Gone Wild" ad.
It's enough to ma...

Finally - some true artistry is coming to the cinema... hehehe

Zombies v Muppets


(Sorry about the link. I'd embed the video, but I discovered recently my blog won't allow it and I'm not sure I want to pay even more $$$s just to add the featur...

Why do they call it GOOD Friday?

Well... Secondborn pulled up quite well after the surgery. In fact she's worried that it's not hurting enough. THis is what being in constant pain does to you. It totally messes with your perspective.
Anyway, Dace and Firstborn arrived for an Easter...
